JOSHUA A. WEST.
Joshua A. West, who owns seven hundred acres of excellent land and recently gave his children two hundred acres, resides on section 1, Richland township, and is recognized as one of the most successful farmers and stock-raisers in Decatur county. He was born August 2, 1847, in Knox county, Illinois, a son of Samuel West. The latter was a native of Vermont and was reared partly in that state and partly in northern Indiana, where his parents removed when he was a boy. In early manhood he went to Knox county, Illinois, and there con- ducted a sawmill. For some time he traveled extensively over Wis- consin, Iowa and Illinois but later formed a partnership with P. B. Selby, who subsequently became his brother-in-law, and they operated a sawmill for years. Mr. West was married in Knox county to Miss Mary Ann Gullett, a native of Indiana, who had removed to Winne- bago county, Illinois, when a young woman. They died in the Prairie state, the former in January, 1860, when fifty-one years of age, and the latter in 1910 when ninety-four years old. They were the parents of eight children, of whom our subject is the fourth in order of birth. Annie became the wife of Rev. Clark, a Methodist Episcopal minister, and passed away in Knox county, Illinois, leaving a family. John,

who was a soldier in the Civil war and was incarcerated for ten months in Andersonville prison, is now residing in that county. Elizabeth is the wife of a Mr. McTier and lives in Knox county, Illinois. Joshua A., of this review, is the next in order of birth. Daniel is residing upon the old homestead in Knox county. Philamon, who owns several farms, is now living retired in Galesburg, Illinois. Mary Ann died when five years of age and one child died in infancy.
Joshua A. West was reared upon the home farm in Knox county, and attended the public schools in the acquirement of his education, which was somewhat limited, as he had to shoulder the responsibilities of a man at an early age. He was not only compelled to make his own way while still a boy, but it was also necessary for him to contribute to the support of others. He turned his attention to agricultural pursuits and after farming independently for some time in Illinois he removed to Decatur county, Iowa, arriv- ing here in 1881. As the years passed his resources increased and he became the owner of nine hundred acres of excellent land, two hun- dred acres of which he has recently given his children. His home place is on section 1, Richland township, besides which he owns one hundred and eighty-one acres in Long Creek township and two hun- dred and forty acres in Clarke county. He has come into possession of all of his land since arriving here in 1881 and the extent of his holdings is proof of his energy and business ability. He raises the usual crops but also gives a great deal of attention to raising stock of a high grade and owns a pedigreed Norman horse.
Mr. West was married in Knox county, Illinois, in 1873 to Miss Lydia Ellen Clawson, who was born in 1855 in Auglaize county, Ohio, but who removed with the family to Knox county, Illinois, as a child. Several of her brothers are now living in Richland township, this county. Mr. and Mrs. West have become the parents of seven children: Oscar, of Long Creek township, married Blanche Fuller- ton, by whom he has seven children. Asa, who is farming in Richland township, married Miss Ella Ramsey, and they have one son living and lost a daughter, who died at the age of nine years. Franklin died when seventeen months old. Amos, who is at home, married Miss Nellie Ramsey, and they have lost two children. Huldah, who is living in Richland township, is the wife of Perry Emley, and they have two daughters. Samuel, a farmer of Richland township, mar- ried Miss Bertha Woods, by whom he has two sons and a daughter. Everett is at home.
Mr. West is a democrat and for twenty years has served as school treasurer of district No. 1, his long continuance in the office proving
411
HISTORY OF DECATUR COUNTY
his efficiency. Fraternally he belongs to the Independent Order of Odd Fellows at Grand River, of which is son Amos is also a member. Both he and his wife are identified with the Christian church, the teachings of which constitute the guiding rules of their lives. Mr. West is thoroughly progressive and up-to-date, and these qualities are manifested not only in the many improvements which he has . made upon his farm but also in his willingness to cooperate with movements seeking the advancement of his community along material or moral lines.
BERT L. AND EDITH (HENDRICKSON) EIKER.
Bert L. and Edith (Hendrickson) Eiker, both natives of Iowa and residents of Leon, were married August 28, 1907, and have one daughter, Edith. Mrs. Eiker is a registered graduate nurse, having received her training in the Nurses' Training School of Council Bluffs, Iowa, and the Post Graduate Training School for Nurses of Chi- cago, Illinois, graduating from the latter institution in 1905. Dr. Eiker is a graduate of Rush Medical College, Chicago, and has been engaged in general practice in Decatur county, Iowa, since his graduation in 1896.
DANIEL ANDERSON.
Since February 12, 1900, Daniel Anderson has been postmaster of Lamoni and in that time the business of the office has increased nearly two hundred per cent. He was born in La Salle county, Illi- nois, on the 8th of June, 1867, a son of Andrew K. and Inger Ander- son, both of whom were born near Stavanger, Norway. The birth of the father occurred on the 24th of June, 1832, and that of the mother on the 17th of January, 1836. In 1857 both crossed to the new world, sailing on the same ship to Quebec. Later both went to Chicago and on the 5th of July, 1857, they were married in La Salle county, Illinois. Their acquaintance dated from their childhood, as they resided in the same locality in Norway. The father is a director of the State Savings Bank of Lamoni and is a man of much business ability. They were the parents of eight children, one of whom died in infancy, the others being: Andrew, a resident of
412
HISTORY OF DECATUR COUNTY
Lamoni, who, in connection with his brother Oscar operates several hundred acres of land in Fayette township; Mrs. Anna A. Dancer, who is mentioned elsewhere in this work; Daniel; Benjamin M., a resident of Independence, Missouri, who is a traveling salesman for the Carpenter Paper Company of Omaha; Oscar, a banker of Lamoni, who is also an extensive land owner and who is mentioned elsewhere in this work; David A., a graduate of the State University of Iowa who has the degree of Ph. D., and who is a member of the faculty of the State University of Washington; and Nellie M., at home, who graduated from the local high school and who is also a graduate of Graceland College.
Daniel Anderson was about five years old when in March, 1872, the family removed from Ottawa, Illinois, to Decatur county, Iowa, locat- ing in the precinct where Lamoni now stands. He attended the local high school and then turned his attention to farming until 1900, when he was made postmaster of Lamoni. He has since held that office and the fact that he has been reappointed under various presidents is incon- trovertible proof of the satisfactoriness of his service. During the fif- teen years that he has been postmaster the business of the office has increased nearly two hundred per cent and there are four rural mail routes and a mail messenger route between Togo and Lamoni and in the office itself employment is furnished to an assistant postmaster, two clerks and a substitute.
In December, 1888, Mr. Anderson married Miss M. Annie Scott, who was born in Nebraska City, Nebraska, but was taken to Plano, Illinois, when a child. Her parents, John and Sarah Scott, both natives of England, emigrated to the United States in 1866 and in 1881 became residents of Lamoni. The father was foreman in the Herald Publishing House from 1886 until 1896, but both he and his wife have gone to their reward. A brother of Mrs. Ander- son passed away in 1889 when nineteen years of age, but she has three sisters living, namely: Mrs. Carrie Willis, residing in Lamoni; Mrs. H. L. Ferguson, who is living in Norwalk, Iowa; and Lorna M. Scott, who is the postmaster's capable assistant. Mr. and Mrs. Anderson have become the parents of three children: Helen, now Mrs. J. A. Willey, of Burlington, Iowa; A. Scott, a student in the State University of Iowa; and Andrew Kenneth, who died when but nineteen months old.
Mr. Anderson is a republican and has always taken much interest in the success of the party, doing all in his power to insure its victory at the polls. He is a deacon in the Reorganized Church of Latter
413
HISTORY OF DECATUR COUNTY
Day Saints and for nineteen years was a member of the board of trus- tees of Graceland College, a church school at Lamoni. His personal characteristics are such that he has won warm friends and as an official he is very popular, since he is at once highly efficient and also uni- formly courteous and accommodating.
J. C. COZAD.
J. C. Cozad is a young man of sound judgment and executive ability and has successfully filled the office of cashier of the Decatur Savings Bank since the organization of the institution. A native son of the county, he was born in Morgan township in 1883, of the marriage of Jacob A. and Sarah J. (Hubbard) Cozad. The father was born in Indiana but in 1856, when about twelve years old came to Decatur county, Iowa, with his parents, Alice and Emeline (Swank) Cozad, likewise natives of the Hoosier state. They settled in Morgan township, entering land from the government. They continued to reside until called by death. Jacob A. Cozad was reared upon the home farm and knew by experience the hardships of pioneer life. In his young manhood he enlisted in the Union army, as did three of his brothers, John S., Aaron A. and James. They were all living in Decatur county at the time but enlisted in Missouri regi- ments. Although they participated in many hard-fought engage- ments all lived to return from the war. Jacob A. Cozad passed away when fifty-eight years of age and his wife died in July, 1913, upon the homestead, which comprises two hundred and eighty acres of excellent land. Both were members of the Methodist Episcopal church and did all that they could to further its work.
J. C. Cozad, who is one of a family of six children, spent his boy- hood days upon his father's farm and received that excellent home training which develops the virtues of industry, perseverance and integrity. He was given good educational opportunities, attend- ing the public schools, the Leon high school and Highland Park College at Des Moines. For seven years he engaged in teaching school and during the greater part of that time was an instructor in high schools. In May, 1908, he decided to turn his attention to other lines of endeavor and assisted in organizing the Decatur Savings Bank of Decatur City, which was capitalized for ten thousand dol- lars. The first president of the institution was J. H. Hill and the first cashier our subject, who still holds that position. The bank
414
HISTORY OF DECATUR COUNTY
has enjoyed a steady growth and in 1912 its capitalization was increased to twenty-five thousand dollars. The institution trans- acts a general banking business and has gained the full confidence of the public as its methods are above question and are calculated to safeguard the interests of depositors and at the same time promote · the development of the bank.
Mr. Cozad married Miss Vanetta Wasson, who was born in this county and is a daughter of H. F. and Hattie (Mullinix) Wasson, residents of Lineville, Iowa. To this union has been born one child, La Verne. Mr. Cozad is a democrat but has never sought to figure prominently in public affairs. He has concentrated his energies upon his business and much of the credit for the success of the Decatur Savings Bank is due to him as he has in large measure determined its policy since its organization.
CHARLES F. CHURCH.
Charles F. Church, of Lamoni, who for the greater part of the past eighteen years has represented the Rock Island Sash & Door Works as a traveling salesman, has resided in Lamoni for forty-two years and is held in high esteem by his fellow citizens. He was born on the 15th of May, 1860, at Loda, Iroquois county, Illinois, a son of Horace Church, whose father was Caleb Church. The ancestry has been traced back to Earl Rognwald, who was king of Norway in A. D. 900, Charles F. Church being his descendant in the thirty-fifth generation. William, the first earl of Warren and Surrey, married Princess Gundred, a daughter of William the Conqueror, who was a descend- ant in the seventh generation from the aforementioned Earl Rogn- wald. William, earl of Warren and Surrey, died in 1088 and his wife passed away in 1085. The coat of arms of the earl of Warren and Surrey is well known in heraldry. The Warren line runs through William de Warren, earl of Warrenne in Normandy, to Walter de St. Martin, who married a daughter of a Norman baron of Danish extraction. The name remains de Warren to the twen- tieth generation. John de Warren, Esquire, of the nineteenth gen- eration, was born in 1414 and married Isabelle, a daughter of Sir John Stanley, K. G. It is recorded that in May, 1496, William Warren of the twenty-first generation died, which shows that the prefix "de" had been dropped by that time. Richard Warren, of the twenty-seventh generation, was born in England, but emigrated to
415
HISTORY OF DECATUR COUNTY
America on the Mayflower and signed the famous compact of the passengers of that ship. His wife and two sons and five daughters came to the new world on the ship, Anne, in July, 1623. He passed away at Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1628. In 1635 his daughter Elizabeth was married at Plymouth, Massachusetts, to Richard Church, who was born in England in 1608. In 1630 he emigrated to Boston and was well known in the early history of that city. He was a man of much ability and of considerable wealth. He served in the Pequoit war, holding the rank of sergeant, and his second son, Ben- jamin, won considerable note as a soldier in that war. Charles F. Church, our subject, is of the eighth generation of the descendants of Richard and Elizabeth (Warren) Church.
Horace Church, the father of our subject, was born October 25, 1811, at Hopkinton, Washington county, Rhode Island, and taught school in early manhood for a number of years. He became a resident of Decatur county in 1873, arriving at Leon in August of that year. After remaining there a week he removed to New Buda, where he re- sided during the winter, but on the 28th of February, 1874, he removed to the Colony Farm in Fayette township, where he operated rented land for seven years. At the end of that time the settlement of Lamoni was started and he removed to the new town, where he con- tinued to reside until he passed away April 21, 1892, when he was almost eighty-one years of age. He was an elder in the Reorganized Church of Latter Day Saints and while residing in Michigan, where he lived for a number of years previous to removing to Decatur county, he was local president. After taking up his abode in Lamoni he was still quite active in the work of the church although advanced in years. He retained his faculties fully until past seventy-five years of age and was a man of keen mentality. His wife, who was in her maidenhood Miss Sallie Eleanor Bissell, died at Lamoni on the 2d of October, 1907, when almost eighty-seven years of age, as she was born on the 4th of November, 1820. In early life she was a member of the Pres- byterian church, and her husband belonged to the Seventh Day Baptist church, but about 1840, while living in Ohio, both became interested in the work of the Latter Day Saints. Subsequently, while residing in Michigan, they learned of the Reorganized Church, of which they became members. To their union were born nine children, of whom four grew to maturity and of whom three survive. Those besides our subject are: Edward C. Church and Mrs. Asa S. Cochran, both resi- dents of Lamoni.
When four years of age Charles F. Church was taken by his parents to Michigan, the family home being maintained for about
416
HISTORY OF DECATUR COUNTY
ten years at Hillyards, Allegan county, that state. He attended the public schools there and continued his education in Decatur county, Iowa, after the removal of the family to this state in 1873. He was the first clerk for "Sammy" H. Gurley, who was the postmaster of Lamoni, and the first general merchandise merchant in the town, and as he became a resident of Lamoni when it was first set- tled, Mr. Church remembers many facts of interest concerning the earliest history of the town. The first hardware store was owned by Hon. Thos. Teale and Henry Wheeling was the first hardware clerk. The first marriage solemnized there was that of C. D. Hammer and Lillie Brown, who are now residing at Creston, Iowa. The first birth in Lamoni was that of Lamoni Berta White, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Vol White, who are now living at Independence, Missouri.
Mr. Church did not remain in the employ of Mr. Gurley long and was for some time employed in the lumberyard at Lamoni. Subsequently he became a house painter and decorator and was for thirteen years a contractor in those lines, employing a number of men. Still later he was engaged with his mother, his father having died, in the mercantile business, the firm name being the Bee Hive Furnish- ing House, S. E. Church & Son, proprietors. They dealt in furniture and wallpaper, also carried a line of musical instruments and likewise conducted an undertaking business. They were affected by the hard times of 1893, but were able to continue in business, as their policy was a conservative one and as their methods were such as made for a steady normal growth. However, in 1897, the business was sold and for the past seventeen years Mr. Church has traveled as a commercial salesman in the states of Iowa, Illinois, Missouri and Kansas. He visits the chief jobbing centers and also a number of the smaller towns, and enjoys a nice business.
Mr. Church was married in Lamoni to Miss Laura L. Smith, a daughter of Norman W. Smith, a teacher and composer of music. For a number of years he has led the local choir in the Reorganized Church of Latter Day Saints and he is known outside of his home county as many of his compositions have been published and are appre- ciated by lovers of music. His daughter Laura L. was born on the 12th of September, 1862, at Hopkins, Michigan, and by her marriage has become the mother of four children. Lena was born February 8, 1884, and is now the wife of Wilbur E. Prall, who is employed in the State Savings Bank of Lamoni. They have three children, Carl, Dorothy and Lois. Arthur B., whose birth occurred on the 5th of August, 1896, is attending Graceland College and for some time has been perfecting himself in wireless telegraphy. He was the first one
417
HISTORY OF DECATUR COUNTY
in Lamoni to take up that work and has made much of his own appa- ratus. He has two antennæ and has become quite proficient in send- ing and receiving messages. His summer school work is done in a Marconi school at Valparaiso, Indiana, and he is preparing to take the United States government examination for amateurs and after pass- ing that examination will receive a license and will become a member of the Wireless Association of America. He believes that there are great commercial possibilities in wireless telegraphy and all of his friends predict his success in his chosen field of work. Charles F., Jr., was born on the 2d of March, 1904, and is attending the public schools. Barton, whose natal day was the 4th of December, 1908, died in infancy.
Mr. Church has consistently supported the republican party since age conferred upon him the right of franchise, but has not desired to hold public office. He has taken an active part in the work of the Reorganized Church of the Latter Day Saints and for years has been a deacon in the local branch. He owns a beautiful home in Lamoni near the Children's Home and has taken much pleasure in remodeling his residence and making it thoroughly modern. He rep- resents an ancient and distinguished family and has manifested admir- able traits of character which have gained him the respect and esteem of his fellow citizens, while his business ability has enabled him to achieve success financially.
GUY P. ARNOLD.
For many years Guy P. Arnold was actively engaged in agri- cultural pursuits and gained a gratifying measure of success as a farmer. He is now living retired in Garden Grove, enjoying the fruits of his former toil. He has resided in Decatur county for over fifty years, has always taken much interest in local history and is- now president of the Decatur County Historical Society. The birth of Mr. Arnold occurred in Seneca county, Ohio, March 6, 1843, and he is a son of Sylvanus Arnold, who was born in Baileytown, Seneca
county, New York. He engaged in merchandizing and farming in Iowa and later followed those occupations in California, where he passed away in 1866 when sixty-five years old. He left a large tract of land in that state. His father, John Arnold, was a son of Sylvanus Arnold, of Trenton, New Jersey. The family is English but has been represented in New England for two hundred years. It is prob- able that Benedict Arnold was a member of the same family as our
418
HISTORY OF DECATUR COUNTY
subject. The mother of Guy P. Arnold was in her maidenhood Lu- cretia Baker and was a daughter of Samuel Baker, a veteran of the Revolutionary war. He was born in Connecticut of English descent and passed away in Steuben county, New York. His daughter Lucretia was born at Lake Keuka, that county, and died in Decatur county, Iowa, when eighty-six years old. She became the mother of two sons, but the brother of our subject has passed away.
Guy P. Arnold accompanied his father to Iowa county, Iowa, in June, 1853, when ten years of age and the following year the family located in Garden Grove township. Our subject attended the public schools of Decatur county and also pursued a high-school course, thus preparing himself for taking an intelligent part in the life of his community. He decided to devote his energies to farm- ing and was very successful as an agriculturist, becoming the owner of several hundred acres of land in Decatur county. He gave con- siderable attention to stock-raising and owned a valuable herd of high grade shorthorn cattle. For a number of years he has lived retired in Garden Grove, as he has accumulated a competence.
In 1875 Mr. Arnold married Miss Elsie Howes, who was born in South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Howes. She is descended from Revolutionary stock and her ancestry is traced back to Elder Brewster. Her parents removed to Wis- consin, where they lived for many years, but in 1873 they settled in Decatur county, Iowa. Mrs. Arnold was a sincere Christian and a loyal member of the Episcopal church. She was a devoted wife and mother and her demise, which occurred in 1898, was an irreparable loss to her family. To Mr. and Mrs. Arnold were born four chil- dren: H. G., a farmer and stockman residing in Garden Grove; Helen, the wife of E. J. Lovett, of Garden Grove; Ethel, who mar- ried H. C. Culver, of Garden Grove township; and John Dent, a senior in the State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts at Ames.
Mr. Arnold is an independent democrat and has been quite active in local political circles. His ability and integrity is recognized by his fellow citizens and he represented his district in the twenty-third general assembly of Iowa. Fraternally he holds membership in the Masonic order and in the Knights of Pythias and is popular not only in those organizations but also in the community at large. He is president of the Decatur County Historical Society, which has done so much to preserve the records of the early days of the county, and he has written a number of interesting articles on local history, some of which appear in the historical volume of this work.
