Gill-Morris Farm

The Gill-Morris Farm is a historic farmstead near the city of Circleville in Pickaway County, Ohio, United States. Established in the early nineteenth century, it has been named a historic site. In 1798, U.S. President John Adams appointed a Mr. Winship the Registrar of Lands in the south-central portion of the Northwest Territory. Winship acquired an area of 1,440 acres (580 ha) within this region, which he divided among three of his sons. In 1827, one of them, William, conveyed part of his share to his sister Nancy Winship Gill. On this property the present farmstead had been established seven years earlier, and five years later the Gills expanded the house. In 1928, a descendent donated a small parcel at the front of the property to the Daughters of the American Revolution: here, the DA
