- Berry Robinson Sulgrove, "History of Indianapolis and Marion County, Indiana, Part one" (1884):
"Amos Hanway, Sr [Arrived] 1821 Summer"
"Amos Hanway, Sr. came to this county from Vincennes, IN, in the year 1821. He came into this township in 1824, and lived till his death on the farm now owned by his son Samuel. Mr. Hanway came to this county on a flat-boat up White River.
He brought his wife and three children: Mary, Amos, Jr., and Ann E. The last-named married James Crigler, April 24, 1836. Mr. Crigler was a member of the Lutheran Church. He is now dead. His widow is living, aged sixty-five years. Mary Hanway married Isaac Doty, and died one year there after.
Amos Hanway, Jr., [b. 1816 Ohio] is still living, and is a leading member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. . . . "
"The Pleasant View United Brethren Church was organized many years ago, and held its meetings at the cabin of William Hendricks, on Fall Creek, for several years. A hewed-log church was raised about the year 1845 on the east bank of Fall Creek, on a high hill called Mount Holy, near the Emery Ford, and used as a meeting-house nearly thirty years. The class disbanded years ago. The first preacher in the church was the Rev. Richardson. Reverend Amos Hanway, Sr. was one of the most prominent ministers of the church."
