JANNEY'S RECOLLECTIONS OF THOMAS CORWIN

 

1. The "Recollections of Thomas Corwin" appears in a 164-page journal in which

Janney, an inveterate amateur essayist, recorded, presumably for more permanent

keeping, some of his memories of persons, places, and things. It was recently presented

to the library of the University of California, Berkeley, by a granddaughter, Mrs.

Thomas Brown of Berkeley. A rough draft of the "Recollections of Thomas Corwin"

is in the Janney Papers at the Ohio Historical Society. The draft is written on scraps

of paper, some carrying complete dates, the latest of which is January 1, 1902. Janney

was then nearly ninety years old.

2. Homer C. Hockett, "Thomas Corwin," in Dictionary of American Biography, IV,

456-458.

3. The brief biography of Janney to follow is taken from three sources: an auto-

biographical note in the back of his twenty-one page history of The State Bank of

Ohio (Cleveland, 1885), an obituary in the Columbus Dispatch, December 11, 1907, and

the aforementioned journal.

4. The date of Janney's arrival in Ohio is given as 1833 in the autobiographical

note in his State Bank of Ohio and in the obituary in the Columbus Dispatch. In the

opening sentence of the "Recollections of Thomas Corwin," however, he says he came

to Ohio in 1831. Elsewhere in the journal he also speaks of coming to Ohio in 1831.

Columbus (New York, 1892), I, 410.
