Randles Station
Welcome
Randles hearts are forever knit together with friendship and love.
I'm so glad you stopped by. Here you can read interesting stories about Randles people, visit a working lighthouse and listen to original songs composed by me, Linda Randles. See photos of Pilgrim George and even Hank Williams Jr! I've spent a lot of time researching our family history, and I am proud of my heritage. From log cabins to lighthouses our Randles were and still are great builders, industrious pioneers and truly unique people!
Dear Lord, we thank you for this perfect day,
For leading us so gently by the hand.
To meet with friends, to worship and to pray.
We ask your help so we can understand.
How joy and woe are parts of Your great plan.
How fear and laughter, tears and smiles combine.
As threads that make the fabric of each life.
Woven together by Your will divine.
Thank You for faithfulness that knows no end.
ThankYou, dear Lord, for loving us. Amen

The children of Jonas & Martha Randles.
Martha's will probated in Coshocton County, Ohio in 1838.
Andrew Jackson Randles was born in Roscoe, Ohio. He was the son of Mary (Gellen) and John Randles and the grandson of Abraham Randles Sr. "Jack" was married to Catherine Amelia Pearce on Christmas day in 1857. He lived to be 97 and worked in his fields almost to the day he died. He remembered the days when Coshocton was a tiny village and the principal mode of transportation was the old Ohio canal. He helped build the Pennsylvania railroad through this section in 1852. Jack was perhaps better known than any other resident of Coshocton, as he kept Coshocton county families well fed in war times and times of need.
He was known as one of the best judges of horse flesh in the United States. At the start of the Civil war he was engaged by the Union army to buy horses for the "Boys in Blue" In the spring of 1864 he enlisted in the Union forces and served until that historic struggle was ended. The government, remembering Mr. Randles judgement of horses called on him for the same purpose during the Spanish - American war in 1898 and again in the World war.
Coshocton county built several bridges that were named in Jack Randles honor. The first Randles Bridge was a covered bridge built in the late 1800's. This was replaced with a more modern structure. The last Randles Bridge spanning the Muskingum River across Jack Randles property was built in 1984. Presently all that remains are the bridge pillars. Jack spent his entire life time in Coshocton county, Ohio except for a year spent near his Uncle Andrew Jackson Randles "Jack", near Greenleaf, Kansas.
