John Gregory, a native of North Carolina, and a soldier of the War of 1812, came to this town in 1814, settling on the farm now owned by James Gregory. When a boy he ran away from his father's home in North Carolina. He was twice married, and had a family of twelve children. He built the first house on the homestead, which is standing yet.
