Excerpt from Washington County, and the Early Settlement of Ohio: Being the Centennial Historical Address, Before the Citizens of Washington County; Marietta, Ohio, July 4th, 1876 The invitation with which I have been honored, to address my fellow citizens of Washington County on this Centennial Independence day, does not allow me to Speak at length of national questions, or national pro gress; but confines me for the most part to what per tains to the origin and development of our own county. It is an honor to be the orator on this day, for this, the oldest county in the great N orth-west, bearing the name of the one man whom all Americans hold in rev erence; whose history, more than that of any other, is interwoven with the history of the State.

Israel Ward Andrews was born on January 3, 1815 in Danbury, Connecticut, United States, the son of Sarah (Parkhill) Andrews and William Andrews, a descendant of one of the first settlers of New Haven.
In 1833 he entered Amherst College, where he spent one year; later he became a student at Williams College, of which Mark Hopkins had recently become president, and he was graduated there in 1837.
After a year spent as principal of an academy at Lee, Massachussets, he was called to Marietta College, Ohio, on the recommendation of President Hopkins. Here he spent the rest of his life as instructor in mathematics, 1838, professor of mathematics and natural philosophy, 1839-1855, president 1855-1885, and professor of political science, 1855-1888.
It was said that he knew personally every graduate of the college during its first fifty years. He was also active in the general educational work of Ohio, serving as president of the Ohio Educational Association and as a member of its executive committee and being for many years an associate editor of the Ohio Journal of Education.
He was one of the original members of the National Teachers' Association and a member of the National Council of Education. His work as a scholar and author was largely in the fields of education and political science. One especially notable paper was read before the National Union Association of Cincinnati, June 2, 1863, on "Why Is Allegiance Due and Where Is It Due?" which was widely copied by newspapers and became an important factor in forming public opinion on the relation of the states to the Union.
His most valuable contribution in the field of political science was his Manual of the Constitution (1874), which was used for many years as a textbook in colleges and universities.
His death occurred at Hartford, where he was visiting, after delivering an address in Boston before the New England Historical and Genealogical Society on "The Marietta Colony of 1788. "

Quotations: "We were but a handful of young men, and the most of us poor in all but a vigorous purpose to 'work out our own salvation. ' "
Andrews was known for his strict attention to detail and immense compassion for those around him.
As a teacher he was remarkable for thoroughness and clearness.
As an executive he guided the young college successfully through the years when it had practically no endowment and was a pioneer enterprise in a new country.
He was twice married: on August 8, 1839, to Sarah Clarke of Danbury, Connecticut, who died in 1840; and on August 24, 1842, to her sister, Marianne Clarke.
