Narrative

Note from the Database of Keith L. Smith:
Andy Jackson Keesling moved to the area which would become Mechanicsburg in Henry County, Indiana in 1827 with his family when he was about 11 years old.
His family Bible has been the source of much of the information about his family and their descendants.
In 1874 he built one of the first brick homes in the western part of Henry County and the home - the red brick house with a slate roof west of Mechanicsburg on the north side of the Pendleton - New Castle Pike (now U.S. highway 38). He was a farmer all his life and at the time of his death in October 1904, he owned 1165 acres in Harrison Township, Henry County, Indiana.
