    Excerpt from "History of Knox and Davies Counties Indiana":
    M.B. SLAWSON, blacksmith, of Edwardsport, Ind., was born in Lawrence County, Ill., December 8, 1821, son of Jesse and Rachel (Reeves) Slawson, who were of German Lineage, born in New York and Pennsylvania in 1780 and 1785, respectively. The father was a farmer, and came to Knox County when about eighteen years of age and married in 1808. He was one of Gen. Harrison's body guards in the war of 1812, serving three years, and was in the battle of Tippecanoe. In September, 1845, he went to the mineral springs of Martin County to get medical aid for his eyes, but died there on the 5th of the month. The mother died in 1869. Our subject received limited advantages, and acquired his education mostly at home. At the age of eighteen, he commenced as an apprentice under his brother, Abner R. learning the blacksmith's trade. At the end of four years he gave up that work and returned to the farm. In October 1843, he married Jane Lemon, born in Knox County in 1848. She died August 8, 1844. A year later he returned to his trade, but not being satisfied with his location, he traveled in Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Indiana, and in 1848 married Amelia Tibbets in Valparaiso, Ind. She was born in 1830. They have one child, William. In 1850, he returned to his birthplace, and the next year came to Edwardsport, where he has since lived with the exception of six years spent on the farm. The second wife died May 30, 1852, and August of the same year he married Hester Cox, daughter of William and Hannah Cox. Mrs. Slawson is a native of Knox County, born January 30, 1823.
