In these hot July and August days, aren't you glad you're not an Ohio pioneer living in the Ohio summer heat in a long wool dress in a little cabin having no windows??? But some of our Potter ancestors did ...........
From the book Early Ohio Settlers: Purchasers of Land in East and East-Central Ohio, 1800-1840, compiled by E.T. and D.A. Berry, I found these Potters listed:

Daniel Potter 12 Sep 1837 Coshocton Co
David Potter 10 Sep 1838 Tuscarawas Co
Henry Potter 9 Dec 1814 Muskingum Co
