Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Appanoose County has a unique heritage, yet it shares a common legacy with all rural Midwestern communities. The boundaries were drawn in 1843, and pioneers from the East came and staked their claims. Jonathan Stratton, the surveyor who platted an addition to Ann Arbor, Michigan, that would eventually become the University of Michigan, did the same with the county seat, Centerville, and remained there. Coal was discovered in the county and became the primary industry for over 50 years. Waves of immigrants came to the area for work in the mines, changing the landscape of the populace forever. Even as coal mining faded away, the diverse culture of the residents remained. These people of Appanoose County maintained a strong work ethic and a positive attitude that pulled them through tough times. They took pride in the community and celebrated their great fortune to live in Appanoose County.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Appanoose County, Iowa: Containing a History of the County, Its Cities, Towns, &C., A Biographical Directory of Citizens, War Record of Its Volunteers in the Late Rebellion, General and Local Statistics, Portraits of Early Settlers and Prominent Men Ess than half a century has rolled into eternity since the Indian title to any portion of the soil of Iowa was extinguished, and the Black Hawk Purchase permitted the resistless tide of emigration westward to flow across the Mississippi; and only thirty-three years ago the Sac and Fox Indians reluctantly left their beautiful hunting-grounds, a por tion of which was the southern part of Appanoose County. Only forty years have elapsed since the adventurous kirby and wells built the first rude cabins in the southern part of the county, followed a few years after by the brave and hardy pioneers who settled in the edges of the beautiful groves that deck the expanses of' prairie within its borders, But these fleeting years have been replete with eventful changes - of history that it has been the purpose of this work to gather, arrange and preserve for transmission to posterity as one of the almost countless chapters in the annals of this great country.

Excerpt: ...the work of improvement, building the necessary farm buildings and a comfortable dwelling. At the outbreak of the Civil war, however, he left the farm and enlisted in an Iowa company, being later transferred to a Kansas cavalry regiment. He served for eighteen months and was then discharged on account of disability. Returning home, he again settled upon his farm, but soon afterward died from the effects of his military service. His wife, left alone, bravely faced the hardships of pioneer life and reared her family of two sons and two daughters, namely: Peter, a farmer of Franklin township; Clara, who became the wife of Peter Bales, also of Franklin township; Mary, the wife of D. W. Pettigrew, of Lincoln township; and William H., of this review. The last named was in his childhood familiar with pioneer conditions in the state and even as a small boy aided in breaking the soil in the development of his father's farm. He had very few school advantages and is largely self-educated, having gained the greater part of his knowledge through reading, experience and observation in later years. As soon as he was able he obtained work by the day or month and labored in this way for several years, saving his money and accumulating a comfortable sum. With this he purchased the interests of the other heirs in the old homestead, which he has since continued to operate.
