In Thirty Questions Regarding the History of Pre-Stockport, Ohio, author and historian Gale Richard Walker Ph.D. tackles each of these questions based on his extensive personal knowledge of the area and its local history. He addresses the ownership of land from earliest times.He writes extensively about Cheadle family members, even attempting to solve the mystery of Kate, the Virginia-born [now West Virginia] the slave of Rachel Cheadle whose origins remain a mystery.He discusses why the tiny village of Stockport has survived to the present day, and he tells the story of Mother Nott, of Mother Nott’s Hole, the deepest spot in the Muskingum River. He describes one of the most lamented tragedies in the pre-Stockport era, the death of young Joel Sherman and other names important in Stockport history, including Dr. Emmet Gatewood, who was memorialized as Dr. Barwood in James Ball Naylor’s 1901 best-selling novel, Ralph Marlowe, a semi-autobiographical account of Naylor’s early years working for Dr. Gatewood in Stockport. Another unsung Civil War hero discussed is James B. Johnson. Contained in this volume are numerous Appendices, including 1950 Stockport census data and full color images.
