A. TANNER, County Treasurer, London, Ohio, was born in Pleasant Township, December 4, 1838. He was a son of John and Margaret Tanner, the former a native of Ohio, and a life-long farmer, and the latter a native of Ohio. Our subject was raised on a farm, and devoted his life entirely to farming and trading until August, 1882, when he came to London to take charge of the County Treasurer's office, to which he was elected in 1881. On June 18, 1873, he married Amanda Taylor, a daughter of Warner T. Taylor, of Jefferson Township. By this union three children were born–Jessie, John Warner and Bruce. Mr. Tanner is a Republican in politics; his first Presidential vote was cast for John Bell, the Whig candidate for President.
