The sister, Caroline Elmira Sanders, was associated with the brothers in the development and operation of their enterprise. During the pioneer days and as late as 1887 she had charge of the domestic arrangements of the hotel until it was sold and later of the farm. During these earlier years she had supervision of the butter and cheese making. By her tireless industry and un- usual executive talent and business ability she contributed in no small measure to the success of the joint enterprise. Her death in 1908 left a vacancy never to be filled in the life of the Sanders family and of the community.


The solidarity of the family was evidenced not alone by the remarkable con- cord with which they conducted their enterprises but was shown as well by the similarity of taste, ambition, temperament and standards of living and of morals among its members. These standards were the standards of the men and women, typical Yankees, who, leaving the sterner conditions of living in New England. have developed under the more hospitable conditions of these prairies a commonwealth and a civilization without exception in many respects second to none in history. Their industry, frugality and careful business sagacity merited the reward of material prosperity attained. Honest and honorable in all dealings. rendering full value for value received, they have always been accorded the highest regard of their business associates. Clean of life and speech, affectionate and generous in their domestic relations, actively sympathetic with all things uplifting, their virility has indelibly stamped on future institu- tions, religious, domestic, political, social and industrial, a large measure of their own high standards. It is the character and work of such men and women, built into the foundations of our institutions, that have made possible the rearing of this commonwealth. unsurpassed in attainment. But the efficiency with which they wrought is the promise of a future state and nation which shall Vol. II-36

be a realization of the hopes of those pioneers who from generation to genera- tion have left that which was good, the old, and gone on to the new and untried-the better.


REV. THOMAS BRANDE.


In the rush and hurry of everyday life it often seems that people are rated by what they have accomplished in a material way, and yet when death claims any individual we know that it is character which has counted and which gives to the individual his place in the regard and in the memory of his friends and associates. A life devoted to gospel service and an example that remains as a beneficent influence in the lives of many with whom he came in contact entitles the Rev. Thomas Brande to prominent mention in the history of Poweshiek county.


He was born July 1, 1810, and passed away May 26, 1898, having attained the venerable age of eighty-eight years. He was a native of Leicestershire, England, and a son of the Rev. William and Sarah (Yates) Brande. His father was a minister of the Baptist church and was educated in England, where much of his religious work was done, but in later years he came to the United States and for a time preached the gospel in Pennsylvania, subsequently removing westward to Kenosha county, Wisconsin, where the family settled upon a farm. although the father for some years still continued his ministerial labors. Both he and his wife passed away in that county and were there laid to rest.


When about thirteen years of age Thomas Brande left his home in Eng- land and came to America to live with an uncle, John Yates, a jeweler of Lan- singburg, New York. There he was apprenticed to the jeweler's trade, com- pleting a seven years' term of indenture, but during those years he was also preparing himself for the ministry by reading and study. In later years he was frequently asked at what theological institution he was educated and he would reply : "At the work bench." With his tools in his hand, while busy with some mechanical pursuits, his mind would reach out to the problems of life and con- sideration of the path or course which the individual should follow for the best development of the moral nature.


He determined to become a preacher of the gospel and at twenty-three years of age entered the active work of the ministry, his first pastorate being at Water- ford, New York. Later he occupied pulpits at Whitehall, Ticonderoga and at Westport in northern New York, and in 1868 came to Grinnell, Iowa. Ten years before he had spent the summer in this place. It was in that same year that the Baptist church of Grinnell was organized and he preached for the little congregation at that time, thus becoming the first Baptist minister of this city. On his return to Grinnell in 1868 he took charge of the congregation here, over which he presided for twelve years, devoting his energies untiringly toward the upbuilding of the church, his teachings and his influence being of far-reach- ing effect in the lives of those who came under his ministration. At length as age came upon him he deemed it best to retire from the active work of the

HISTORY OF POWESHIEK COUNTY


ministry, but after resigning his pastorate at Grinnell acted as supply in various pulpits, preaching for a year for the congregation at Toledo, Iowa, and for one year at Killduff. He retained his residence, however, in Grinnell, throughout that period.


He lived to a ripe old age and a long and useful life of eighty-eight years was closed when he was called to his final rest. He was an able exponent of the truths of the gospel, a clear and logical thinker and an earnest and often eloquent speaker. Not only in the pulpit, however, did he seek to lead the people to accept the gospel message, but also by a blameless life gave to them an example which has been a stimulus and inspiration in the lives of many who knew him.


Rev. Brande was married twice. He first wedded Miss Pearl Brewster, of New York, by whom he had a daughter, who died in Wisconsin. Mrs. Brande passed away while they were yet residents of Westport, New York, and on the 20th of April. 1857, Mr. Brande was united in marriage in Kenosha, Wisconsin, to Miss Isabella Brainerd, whose parents died in her childhood so that she was reared by an aunt, Mrs. Klove, of Racine county, Wisconsin. There was one son of this marriage, Edward Brainerd Brande, of whom mention is made elsewhere in this volume. Mrs. Brande is a member of the Baptist church and while now in her seventy-fourth year appears much younger, being re- markably well preserved, both mentally and physically.


ROBERT ANDREW MOORE.


Robert Andrew Moore engaged in general farming in Bear Creek township. was born in Augusta county, Virginia, on the 8th of September, 1856, and is a son of Jeremiah and Sarah (Robeson) Moore, also natives of the Old Dominion. The father, who was a farmer, passed away in his native state in 1870, but the mother, who survived until 1891, removed to Brooklyn, Poweshiek county. in 1883 and there she died seven years later.


Robert Andrew Moore acquired his education in the common schools which he attended until he was fourteen years of age, during which time he also assisted his father in the work of the farm. Laying aside his text-books in 1870 he was employed as a farm hand for several years in the vicinity of his home. In March, 1878, he came to Iowa, locating in Malcom township. Powe- shiek county, where he spent a year and then removed to Madison township where he remained until 1891. He subsequently went to Brooklyn, where he worked out during the summer, and then rented a farm north of the Madi- son township church which he cultivated for a year. After the expiration of that period he was in the employ of others for three years, following which he rented another place in Madison township which he cultivated for eight years. He then removed to Brooklyn where he lived with his brother for a year, during which time his mother, who had kept house for him ever since the death of his father. passed away. In the spring of 1892 he purchased his present homestead. which consists of one hundred and sixty acres, in Bear Creek township. Three


752


HISTORY OF POWESHIEK COUNTY


years later he bought eighty acres lying just north of his farm in Madison township. He has continued to add to his holdings from time to time until he has acquired six hundred and forty acres of excellent farm land in Bear Creek and Madison townships.


In 1894 Mr. Moore was united in marriage to Miss Helen I. Scott, a daugh- ter of Thomas P. and Jane (Douglass) Scott. The father, who was then a well known farmer in Bear Creek township, was born and reared in Scotland. He emigrated to the United States when a youth of seventeen years, locating near Kewanee, Illinois, where he worked as a farm hand. In 1869 he came to Bear Creek township, Poweshiek county, where he bought a farm and after placing upon it the necessary improvements returned to Illinois for his bride. Mr. Scott passed away in Brooklyn, in February, 1901, but his wife is still sur- viving and continues to reside in Brooklyn. Mrs. Scott was a native of Glas- gow, Scotland, but when a child of ten years came to the United States with her people, who first located in Vermont but later removed to Illinois where she met and subsequently married Mr. Scott. Four children have been born unto Mr. and Mrs. Moore as follows: Jean, thirteen years of age, who is attending the Bear Creek township school No. 3; Catharine, aged eleven, who goes to the home school; Roberta, who is one year of age; and one who died in infancy.


The family attend the Presbyterian church at Brooklyn of which Mrs. Moore is a member. In state and national elections Mr. Moore votes the straight demo- cratic ticket but in local affairs gives his support to the men he deems best fitted for the office. He has never been an office seeker but for two terms he served as a school director in district No. 3. Bear Creek township. His entire atten- tion is devoted to the direction of his personal affairs in which he is meeting with most gratifying returns. He rents all of his land, with the exception of the one hundred and sixty acres contained in his homeplace, where he engages in general farming and the raising and feeding of stock for the market. A man of energy and ability Mr. Moore is recognized as one of the most competent agriculturists in the community. His land is thoroughly tiled and drained, the fields are well cultivated and the improvements are exceptionally good. Such success as has attended his efforts is entirely due to his perseverence and tire- less energy.


JAMES MANATT.


James Manatt, deceased, was one of the enterprising and successful agricul- turists of Poweshiek county, of which he had been a resident for about fifty years. He was born in Somerset county, Pennsylvania, in February, 1827, and was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Manatt, both of Irish descent. The father, who was a native of County Down, emigrated to the United States in 1812, lo- cating in Pennsylvania. Some years thereafter he and his family removed to Holmes county. Ohio, where the mother passed away, Mr. Manatt and the children subsequently migrating to Iowa. Upon their arrival in this state they


753


HISTORY OF POWESHIEK COUNTY


first located in Washington county, but later came to Brooklyn, Poweshiek county, where in 1863 the father died.


James Manatt obtained his education in the district schools of Ohio and Iowa. following which he assisted his father in the cultivation of the home farm until he had attained the age of twenty years, when he was married. He subsequently acquired a farm in Carnsforth, this county, which he cultivated for many years, during which time he added to his holdings until he owned three hundred and ninety acres. From time to time he bought other property until he became one of the most extensive landowners in the county. In 1880 he removed to the village of Brooklyn where he continued to reside until his demise on the 13th of February, 1911. He had not been actively engaged in agricultural pursuits for many years prior to his death, having rented his land.


Mr. Manatt was twice married. His first wife, who is now deceased, was Miss Livina Snook of Warren township. Six children were born of this union, in order of birth as follows: John W., a stockman of Chelsea, Iowa: Eliza, who died on the Ist of October, 1908, the wife of Henry Strasser, of Thornburg, this state; Mrs. Lewis Gorsuch, of Brooklyn; Ella M., the widow of Edward Kraft, who passed away on the 12th of December, 1888; and Alice L. and Emily, both of whom reside in Grinnell. For his second wife Mr. Manatt chose Miss Cornelia Squires, a daughter of Sumner L. and Parizade ( Payne) Squires. The mother, who was a descendant of Sir Simon Fiske, belonged to one of the oldest and best known families of Vermont, whose members were people of education and culture. She was a native of the Green Mountain state, her birth having occurred in Highgate. Prior to her marriage she was a teacher and was regarded as a highly educated woman for that period. Mr. Squires, who was also a teacher during his early manhood, was born on an island in Lake Cham- plain and was a son of John Squires. He and his wife migrated from their native state to Iowa, locating in Poweshiek county in 1855. The father, who for many years was engaged in general farming and stock-rasing on a farm in Jefferson township, drove a large herd of cattle from Aurora, Illinois, to his farm, many of them dying from cold and starvation as the winter was one of the most severe ever experienced in this section of the state. They resided upon their homestead for thirty years, but in 1885 removed to Brooklyn, where the father passed away in February, 1892. and the mother in April, 1904. Unto Mr. and Mrs. Manatt were born four children: Earl L., who was born in 1877 and died in April, 1907, was a physician of New Castle, Indiana. He married Amelia Bond of Kirksville, Missouri, in which town he passed away. and they had one son who is now five years of age. Ernest S., who is also a physician and a resident of Hampton, Iowa, married Mande Krabochill of that city and they have one son, Earle K., who is one year of age. Rex Irving, who is the third son, still continues to make his home with his mother in Brooklyn. Horace J. F., who was accidentally killed in 1898 while playing with his com- panions, had attained his seventh year. Mrs. Manatt is still surviving and makes her home at Brooklyn.


A republican in politics, Mr. Manatt always gave his support to that party. He always took a helpful interest in all local governmental affairs and was for many years president and treasurer of the school board of Warren township.


754


HISTORY OF POWESHIEK COUNTY


He was also county trustee for three terms; assessor for a long period; and justice of the peace for years. He affiliated with the Presbyterian church in the faith of which denomination he had been reared, his father having been one of the charter members of the Brooklyn church. Mrs. Manatt was also identified with that church until 1908 at which time she withdrew in order to unite with the Church of Christ. She is also a member of the Columbian Club of Brook- lyn, being a woman of progressive ideas and scholarly instincts. Mr. Manatt had attained the venerable age of eighty-four years at the time of his demise. which occurred after about a year's illness. During the greater portion of his life he had resided in Poweshiek county. He had seen the prairie transformed into beautiful orchards and well cultivated fields and villages develop into thriv- ing towns and cities, and had contributed his share in forwarding the march of civilization.
