From Reuben Ulmer's "A Brief Sketch of the Community Surrounding Blooming Grove" (1961): The next farm to the west is owned by Oscar Wright, son of Henry Wright. At one time, it was owned by Jacob Raker, before that by Sarah Shafer, and still earlier by John Ulmer (grandfather of Ezra and John Ulmer and father to Jonathan Ulmer).
