WILLIAM LEASURE, dentist, Plain City, was born in Franklin County, Ohio, September 7, 1837, and is a son of William and Polly Swrader Leasure, natives of Pennsylvania, of German descent. They came Ohio in 1827, and settled in Franklin County, where our subject received his education. He was raised on a farm, where he continued until sixteen years of age, when he went to Pennsylvania and studied dentistry. After acquiring his profession, he spent five years in Indiana and was in Union County nine years. While in the latter county, he was engaged in selling groceries and dry goods. He was married, in 1863, to M. E. Brant, a native of Pennsylvania, of German descent, and a daughter of Frederick and Polly Brant. They have one child – Jennie, who is now the wife of Vernon Allen, of Plain City.
