John Briles, a farmer, came to Indiana in the fall of 1865, and located on a farm four and one-half miles from Fairmount. He was a Union man in sentiment, and bitterly opposed to both slavery and to secession. He lost considerable property by reas on of his devotion to the Union while he was living in the south, the Confederate troops devastating his farm and carrying off everything that was portable. John Briles after coming to Grant County, Indiana continued to cultivate the soil, and die d on his Liberty township farm at the age of sixty-four years; his widow, born in 1824, still lives on the home farm in Liberty Township. The children born to John and Elizabeth Briles were three in number, Jacob being the eldest; Noah is a farme r in Madison county, Indiana; and Elwood E., the youngest of the family, is now a student of law in Fairmount.
