affected by David Pugh, a Welshman from Radnorshire, Wales.  Young David Pugh left Wales early in 1801 and landed in Philadelphia.  He took up residence in Baltimore, Maryland for about a year working and learning English.  He met a fellow Welshman, Dr. Samuel Jones who had received several acres of land for his service in the Revolutionary War.  Dr. Jones also acquired additional land warrants for his service in the Revolutionary War.  Using acquired 25 land warrants, Dr. Jones purchased one quarter township (4,000 acres) of land in 1798.  The land was located in Ohio Federal township six of range twenty in an area that was to become Radnor Township, Delaware County, Ohio.

journey on horseback David Pugh arrived near Franklinton, Ohio (now a part of Columbus).  He hired a local scout to take him up river to the land owned by Dr. Jones.  Mr. Pugh’s letters indicated that he established a settlement named Carpenter (now in Licking County) as his headquarters for several week during the summer of 1802.

Another Welshman, Henry Perry, purchased the first one hundred-acre plot (lot 1 of tier 2) of the 4,000 acres.  Henry, his wife Margaret and their children may have built the first family cabin in the area now near the northeast corner of Route 203 and Penry road.  There is still a dug well

Mr. Pugh recognized the value of the land he was surveying and returned to Philadelphia in the fall of 1802 with an offer to buy the 4,000 acres.  Dr. Jones was older and recognized David Pugh a worthy citizen and accepted his offer.  Dr. Jones sold Pugh 3,505 acres of the 4,000 acres for $

Radnor was originally known as "Delhi", and under the latter name was laid out in 1833. Prior to being called Delhi, the town was called New Baltimore. New Baltimore existed as early as 1814. The present name was taken from Radnor Township.The Radnor area history from 1802 until 1825 is greatly

The village of New Baltimore did not thrive and Pugh sold the 150 acres as farm land to Thomas Morton, Sr., in 1810.  By 1825 a major portion of the 40 lots were under cultivation and Radnor Township was a thriving farming community. The New Baltimore plat name survived until Edward Evans

David Pugh lived in the area only a short time.  He married Jane Murphy about 1808 and by 1815 they had moved to the Welsh-Hills community around what is now Reynoldsburg, Ohio.  They lived there the rest of their lives.

In 1803 David Pugh traveled back to Wales and convinced two of his sisters and their husbands to emigrate.  This event allowed many of the current Radnor families to claim the Pugh family as part of their ancestry.
