Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Wapello County, Iowa, Vol. 2: Illustrated On the list of leading citizens of Ottumwa the name of Augustus Harvey Hamilton is written high. His prominent connection with journalism, his loyal advocacy and support of measures for the public good and his individual worth have combined to make him a highly respected and honored resident of the community in which he has so long made his home. He was born January 19, 1827, upon a farm within the present limits of Cleveland, Ohio, and there he was wont to follow the plow upon tracts that are now factory sites, situated in the midst of a densely populated district of that city. His father, Justus Hamilton, born in Massachusetts, March 17, 1792, made the journey westward from Massachusetts to Cleveland on horse back with his father in 1801. Establishing his home there, he became closely identified with agricultural interests. He mar ried Salinda Brainard, who was born on the Connecticut river, near Middletown, Connecticut, on the roth of March, 1791 The children of that family were Augustus Harvey; Delia, deceased; Edwin T., who was a judge upon the bench at Cleve land, Ohio, for twenty years, but has now passed away; and Albert Justus, also deceased. There is also a half sister, Rachel Burke, who is now living in Cleveland at the remarkable old age of ninety-four years.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Wapello County, Iowa, Vol. 1 Wapello County in many of its topographical features is similar to the state as a whole, which consists of level or rolling prairies, with occasional deep valleys, with gentle or abrupt slopes according to the depth the streams lie below the prairie, and the character of the material through which they have carved their courses. The Des Moines River traverses the county from northwest to south east, having, with its numerous tributaries, cut its way through the overlying strata of clays, shales and coal beds, down to the limestones, thus exposing to view and making accessible a vast amount of mineral wealth. Untold ages were required for the forces of nature to make this prep aration for the habitation of man, but many more thousands of years inter vened, of which there is little or no record, before civilized man appeared on the scene. The present history endeavors to give a record of events within the county, beginning with the establishment of the Indian agency in 1838 at what is now the town of Agency.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Page County, Iowa, Vol. 1: Also Biographical Sketches of Some Prominent Citizens of the County Sixty years ago all that part of the great and beautiful state of Iowa of which the county of Page is a part was practically terra incognita, a vast wilderness, given over by the Almighty to wild beasts, birds of the air and their masters, the Indians, who roamed the plains and forests at will, claim ing and securing an existence from the bounteous hand of nature. Here the deer, buffalo and other fur bearing animals found a habitat, and the many streams gave generously of the palatable fish. The red man had no care for the morrow. No thought came to him that his possessions would ever be disturbed by the pale face. So he continued his dreams. The hunt was his daily avocation, broken in upon at intervals by a set-to with a hostile tribe of aborigines, that was always cruel and bloody in its results and added spoils to the victor and captives for torture. He knew not of the future and cared less. But the time was coming, was upon him. When he was called upon to make way for a stronger and a progressive race of men; when the fair land, that was their birthright, and their hunting grounds, resplendent with the gorgeous flower and emerald sod, must yield to the husbandman. The time had come for the buffalo, deer and elk to seek pastures new, that the alluvial soil might be turned to the sun and fed with grain, to yield in their seasons the richest of harvests.
