Cordelia, b. Oct. 3, 1841 ; m. Jefferson D. Leland. Dr. Jeremiah H. Plascall was one of the early representative men of Shiawassee County, Michigan, and one to whom the County owes much for the pioneer sacrifices which laid the foundation for its subsequent growth and prosperity. Pie was born in the village of LeRoy, N. Y., and at the age of four years was left fatherless, and from the age of ten years he was left entirely to his own resources for livelihood. In 1833 REED -RE AD LINEAGE 189 he moved to Michigan and settled in Adrian. After spending- several years in a drug store in that city he studied medicine with Dr. P. J. Spalding and attended lectures at Ann Arbor and graduated from the university. In 1856 he moved with his family to Corunna, Mich., and en- tered actively into the practice of his chosen profession. For many years his practice extended over the entire County, and many times out- side. Many times he was compelled to leave his horse and thread his way through swamps and bogs, walking on logs and wading through stag- nant mires to reach some pioneers cabin, in the then unbroken wilder- ness, to minister to the sick and distressed, and many sucff hardships were endured and sacrifices made without the hope or expectation of renumeration. At the breaking out of the War of the Rebellion, when the country was calling for volunteers, he oflFered to donate his medical services to the families of any soldiers from his county while at the front without fee or reward. He little realized how much he was promis- ing, but his sturdy honesty and patriotism impelled him to keep his promise to the letter, not only giving his time and skill, but many times furnishing food and clothing for the needy and distressed. The hard- ships and fatigues of his extensive practice caused an early breaking- down of his physical strength and at the age of sixty years he laid aside his professional duties and spent the remaining years of his life with his daughter, Mrs. J. D. Leland, in the home which he himself had buiTded, and where he departed this life honored and respected by all who knew him. 1148. HASCAIX.
