home was at the mouth of Five Mile creek. He was a lumberman and cut the pine
timber off 700 acres of land which he bought at from $1.00 to $2.50 per acre.
They were early settlers and most of their provisions were brought from
Buffalo by teams. There were times when roads were so bad that it was hardly
possible to make the trips. Then provisions were exhausted. The little that
was left the neighbors would divide and help each other out until their
supplies came. Mr. BLAIR survived his wife, who died September 14, 1887. He

John B. BUCHER, a weaver by trade, with his wife, Mary Ann SUTTER, and their

prominent family in Switzerland. John BUCHER first settled near Buffalo, but
soon moved to Transit, N. Y., and in 1852 located near Lockport. In 1853 he
purchased a few acres of wild land in Amherst, Erie county, which he sold in
March, 1859, and removed to Allegany, settling on the Four Mile, where the
parents died at the age of seventy-seven years. William BUCHER's
education was nearly all in German, which he judiciously combined with the
practical knowledge he was forced to secure. Leaving home in April, 1858, he
preceded the family to this town, where he worked by the month and finally
purchased forty acres of land. By an accident he lost his right arm and then
began peddling, but money was scarce and this proved unprofitable. In
1862 he secured a permit to enter the 154th Regiment and followed that
organization through its campaigns, supplying the soldiers with tobacco,
notions, etc. He returned home in June, 1865, and with the profits
accumulated in the army he was enabled to pay for his farm. July 12,
1868, Mr. BUCHER married Mary KREIN, of Buffalo, and their children are
William F., John P., Joseph A., Henry F., Christian A., George, Jacob, Albert,

Surname: CHAPIN
The CHAPIN family has long been well known in Allegany. The first
representative who came here was Jabez CHAPIN, Sr., from Massachusetts. His
son Roswell settled in Buffalo in 1815 and became the first village surveyor
there. Two daughters of Jabez, Mary and Faritta, joined their brother in
Buffalo, but removed to Allegany soon after their father settled here. Another
daughter, Lucy, suggested the name Springville for that village in Erie
county. Jabez CHAPIN, Sr., had a family of three sons and four daughters, and
it is said that in none of their homes was ever found a lamp or a stove. At
least this is true of those who settled in Allegany. They used candles for
lighting, and did their cooking and warmed their houses with fires on the
hearth of the fireplace. Only one - a maiden daughter - of this generation
survives. Her nephew, however, lives in town. They have all lived to extreme
old age and attribute their great longevity to never employing a physician.
Their lives were full of history. Their house is a veritable museum of
curiosities. Mary and Faritta for many years wove carpets for the neighbors.
The former was an expert in needlework, especially in making fine embroidered
lace, pieces of which are still extant and valued for their superior quality.
