EDWARD ROMIG was born in Warwick Township May 5, 1816, and was a son of John and Elizabeth (Bickell) Romig, both natives of Pennsylvania. They were of German descent, and emigrated to this county in 1803, settling in Warwick Township where our subject lived, and there they spent the remainder of their lives. Our subject's father was a miller and saddler in early life, but engaged in farming after he came to Warwick Township. He owned 400 acres of land at the tune of his death, 1835, and was a prominent man. He was appointed first Coroner in Tuscarawas. He had a family of nine children, two of whom are now living. Our subject chose farming for his occupation, and followed it all his life. He owned at his death 126 acres in this township, and seventy-five in Harrison County. He was married in 1839 to Elizabeth Auld, daughter of Steward and Sarah (Connell) Auld, who came to Ohio in 1811, settling in that part now known as Harrison County. Their family numbers six children living-Sarah, wife of J. A. Welfely, farmer; Elizabeth, wife of Philip Myers, farmer; Isaiah S., married, and an engineer on the Pan Handle Railway; Aaron, married, a farmer in Warwick Township; Mary, single at home; and Theophilus E., married, and a farmer at home.
