    {Leyman-Lehman Family Tree:}
    Joseph Lehman went to Somerset County at age 18, settled at base of Tire Hill. Was blacksmith for 40 years; constable for a number of years & an enthusiast in military matters, having been captain of a militia. The present school system of Paint Twp. adopted in 1861 is largely due to his efforts and those of Peter Berkey, a good friend. He was esteemed by all who knew him. In politics he was a Democrat up to the time of Andrew Jackson, when he became associated with the Whig party and later with Republicans. Three of his sons took active part in Civil War; John, Henry and Samuel.
