Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Past and Present of Lucas and Wayne Counties, Iowa, Vol. 1: A Record of Settlement, Organization, Progress and Achievement It is natural that we become attached to the land of our nativity, the scenes of our childhood, the birthplace of our early hopes and aspirations, and the battle ground of life's joys and sorrows. We come to love its mountains and its plains, its rocks and its rivers, its forests and its prairies, and all the surroundings of the spot of earth that we have learned to call our home, have charms for us that time cannot efface. The poet has thus beautifully expressed this truth: "We view in each crag, A friend's familiar face, And clasp the mountain, In our mind's embrace." It is this attachment for our homes which creates the demand for history, especially the history of counties, or other localities. We desire to ascertain all that we can about this particular locality and the people who formerly occupied it as their home. What kind of people were they? How, or in what manner did they walk, talk, eat and dress? What were their ideas, and what did they do in the way of improving and developing this home? We start out in search of this information, but at the very threshold of this inquiry we are met by the sad fact that but a very few of the pioneers who sought homes in this county are now living, and hence the answers to many of the questions we would propound to them are buried in the graves of early settlers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Township Government: In Iowa To discover the sources of the laws under which the township in Iowa was organized, to trace the changes in these township laws, to sketch the scope and character of township administration from its inception down to the present time, and to indicate some of the conceptions concerning the functions of the township that appear to have prevailed in Iowa, constitute the aim of the pages that follow. In order to accomplish the objects of this research reference has necessarily been made to the original jurisdictions in which the township was first recognized as well as to those having an immediate connection with Iowa. Some reference has also 'been made to other jurisdictions in which a modified form of township organization has appeared. A survey of the laws from the establishment of the Territory of the Northwest in 1787 to the present time, in so far as they appear to relate directly to the history of local government in Iowa, has been undertaken; and incidentally the various types of township organization have been mentioned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Pottawattamie County, Iowa: Containing a History From the Earliest Settlement to the Present Time Biographical Sketches; Portraits of Some of the Early Settlers, Prominent Men, Etc After several months of laborious Research and persistent toll, the history of Pottawattamie County is complete, and it is our hope and belief that no subject of general importance or interest has been overlooked or omitted, and even minor facts, when of sufficient note to be worthy of record, have been faithfully chronicled. In short, where protracted investigation promised results commensurate with the undertaking, matters not only of undoubted record but legendary lore, have been brought into requisition. We are well aware of the fact that it is next to impossible to furnish a perfect history from the meager resources at the command of the historian under ordinary circumstanccs, but claim to have prepared a work fully up to the standard of our engagements. Through the courtesy and assistance generously afforded, we have been enabled to trace out and put into systematic shape the greater portions of the events that have transpired in the county up to the present time, and we feel assured that all thoughtful persons interested in the matter will recognize and appreciate the importance of the work and its permanent value. A dry statement of facts has been avoided, so far as it was possible to do so, and anecdote and incident have been interwoven with plain recital and statistics, thereby forming a narrative at once instructive and entertaining. We are indebted to Col. John H. Keatley for furnishing us with the history of Council Bluffs and some of the township history; also to Hon. D. C. Bloomer for the material assistance he rendered in the compilation of the work by the aid of his valuable and accurate notes in the "Annals of Iowa" published by the Historical Society of the State. And to the many residents of Pottawattamie who furnished our historians, Messrs. W. T. Giles and Frank M. Wright, with the facts and data for their portion of the work, we acknowledge thanks.

This book was released on 2017-11-05 with total page 754 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Jones County, Iowa, Past and Present, Vol. 1 The mission of the historian is to chronicle things and events as he finds them, and preserve them according to the fact, rather than to give to history the coloring he thinks it ought to have. The recording of the organization, progress and condition of the county, commercially, socially, religiously, educationally and politically, past and present, is not a matter of interest and value for the present generation alone; future generations will peruse these pages to learn of the past, and from force of circumstances, will be compelled to accept the facts herein presented, as matters of undisputed historic reference. To gather and transcribe the data of this volume in the short space of six months, has been a large undertaking, and what has been accomplished in that period of time, will be disclosed in the pages of this history. The History of Jones County, published in 1879, has been of valuable assist ance in compiling this volume, and its pages have been freely used in this history so far as applicable. The cheerful assistance rendered the editor by those solicited for information and contributions, forms one of the most delightful memories of this task. To meet these people in their homes, in their places of business, and on the street and highway, and secure their hearty cooperation in making this work a success, has been one of the most enjoyable features of the labors we were called upon to perform. The friendships formed, the coopera tion manifest, the appreciation expressed, and the satisfaction experienced in securing a history of our home county, have been encouraging features in the role as historian.

This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Adair County, Iowa, and Its People, Vol. 1 On March 3, 1805, Iowa was included as a part of the Territory of Louisiana, with the capital at St. Louis, and that part of the Louisiana Purchase now known as Louisiana became Orleans Terri tory. The Territory of Missouri was organized June 4, 1812, and Iowa was embraced in it. When Missouri became a state in 1820, Iowa, with other territory, was detached and forgotten and remained a country without a government, either political or judicial, until June 28, 1834, when the 'abuses of outlawry and crime became so prominent and serious that, as a means of redress and correction it was included in the Territory of Michigan. During all these vears it is probable that the only civil law in force in Iowa was the pro vision of the Missouri act which prohibited slavery and involuntary servitude in the territories of the United States north of thirty-six degrees, thirty minutes, north latitude. By 1836 the population of this region had so increased that the territorial government of Wisconsin was organized, which at first included a part of the upper peninsula of Michigan, the whole of Minnesota and Iowa, and that part of Dakota lying east of the Mis souri and White Earth rivers. When the Territory of Iowa was organized, July 12, 1838, it included the present State of Minnesota and parts of North and South Dakota.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Butler County Iowa, Vol. 1: A Record of Settlement, Organization, Progress and Achievement Butler county is situated a little to the east of the north central portion of the State of Iowa, in the third tier of counties south of the Minnesota line and the fourth tier west of the Mississippi river. It is bounded on the north by Floyd county, on the east by Bremer and Blackhawk counties, on the south by Grundy county and on the west by Franklin county. Cerro Gordo, Chickasaw and Hardin counties corner with Butler county on the northwest, northeast and southwest, respectively. The county is an exact square, twenty-four miles on a side, containing sixteen congressional townships, making its area 576 square miles. The surface of the county is a rolling plain, broken by few conspicuous topographic forms. No detailed geological survey of the county has ever been made but from the data at hand it would appear that the highest point in the county is on the divide between the Shell Rock and West Fork valleys, probably the point of the location of the present county courthouse in Allison. The lowest point is in the extreme southeastern corner of the county where the Beaver creek crosses the county line into Blackhawk. The measure of range of elevation between these points does not exceed 250 feet, the altitude of Allison, as determined from the railway surveys, being 1,044 feet above the sea level and that of New Hartford, in the Beaver valley in the southeastern portion of the county, being 895 feet.
