O. J. POINDEXTER,<\/strong> farmer, P. O. Cynthiana, was born in Harrison County, Ky., near Poindexter’s Station, July 16, 1817; son of James and Martha (Ammon) Poindexter; he, born in Louisa County, Va., July 6, 1787, a miller by occupation, who came to Kentucky when six years of age, with his parents, and died in 1865; she, born in Bourbon County, May 11, 1789, and died in 1863. They had seven children. After receiving an education in the schools of his native county, our subject began clerking in the store of his father at Poindexter Station. This was in 1832, but in 1836 he commenced the milling business, which he continued until 1839, when he removed to Missouri and engaged in farming. In 1841 he returned to Harrison County and again entered the milling business. In 1848 he purchased the farm upon which he now resides, having remained there since its purchase. His farm comprises 300 acres of choice land, and he makes a specialty of raising tobacco. Poindexter Station, on the Kentucky Central Railroad, was named for the family of our subject. Nov. 5, 1857, Mr. Poindexter married Malinda J. Haviland, born Nov. 17, 1828, in Harrison County, daughter of Robert S. and Mary C. (Stewart) Haviland, of Harrison, from which union there have been born six children, five of whom are living: James R., Mattie E., John W., Henry H. and Maggie E. Self and wife are members of the Methodist Church. He is a member of the Grangers’ Lodge, Mt. Zion, No. 250, and a Democrat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
