On the 27th of April. 1855. Mr. McQuiston was united in marriage to Miss Susanna Kester, a daughter of Louis and Mary ( Keiser ) Kester. both natives of Westmoreland county, Pennsylvania. They removed to Lagrange county, Indiana, and in 1856 came to Story county, where they continued during the remainder of their lives. Seven children were born to Mr. and Mrs. McQuiston, five of whom are now living, namely: Ellen, the wife of Thomas llolmes, of Collins; Julia, now Mrs. O. C. Cunningham, of Stuart, Iowa; Emma. the wife of Oscar Shellberg, of Enterprise Jowa ; Dollie the wife of Bert Edwards of Des Moines; and Wesley, of Collins township.
Mr. MeQuiston, ever since arriving at manhood has given his support to the republican party and although he has not sought public office he has served with recognized ability as a member of the school board and as road supervisor. He and his wife are connected with the Methodist Protestant church and are earnest followers of the Great Master. Mr. McQuiston is

HISTORY OF STORY COUNTY
known as a man of clear discrimination and sound judgment who generally succeeds in anything to which he directs his attention. As one of the old residents of the county he has witnessed marvelous changes and may justly be regarded as a valued citizen who is well worthy of prominent mention in a work pertaining to the history of Story county.
AMOS HURST.
In Amos Hurst is found an excellent example of the self-made man who, starting out in life on his own account at the age of sixteen years, has since been dependent upon his own resources, working his way up- ward from a humble financial position to a place of affluence. In time he became the owner of an excellent farm property and in its cultivation and development gained a competence that now enables him to live retired in the enjoyment of well earned rest.
He was born in Cumberland county, Pennsylvania, September 8, 1839, and is a son of Abram and Anna ( Markley) Hurst, who were natives of Lancaster county, Pennsylvania, and were of German descent. They re- mained lifelong residents of the Keystone state, and the father devoted the years of manhood to farming. Their family numbered ten children : Amos; Daniel, who is living in Los Angeles, California; John, who died in Grand Rapids, Michigan; Levi, who was killed at Petersburg in 1864 while serv- ing in the Union army; Alfred, deceased; David, who is living in Oberlin, Ohio; Katharine, who died in young womanhood; Hattie, the wife of Dr. Trimmer; Fannie, the deceased wife of William Jobe, of Pennsylvania; and Mrs. Martha Taylor, a widow living in Finley, Ohio. Three of the sons : Daniel, John and Levi, all enlisted for service in the Union army from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. John went to the front as a drummer boy when he was but fifteen years of age; Levi served as a private of the One Hundred and Sixty-fourth Pennsylvania; and Daniel was for two and a half years defender of the old flag.
Amos Hurst spent his youthful days in his parents' home to the age of sixteen years and during that period attended the public schools. He then started out in life for himself, working at farm labor by the month until twenty-four or twenty-five years of age. He came to Iowa in 1861, settling in Clinton county, and there in 1865 he was married to Miss Mary Conrad, who was born in Center county, Pennsylvania, December 3, 1842, a daughter of Daniel and Nancy (Harpster) Conrad, who were also na- tives of the Keystone state. They came to Iowa when it was still under territorial rule and located on a farm twelve miles west of Center in Clinton county, there spending their remaining days.
Mr. Hurst followed the occupation of farming in Clinton county for a long period and about 1880 came to Story county, settling in Palestine

township where he lived for seven years. He then bought a farm about a inile and a half south of College, in Washington township, and continued its cultivation successfully until about five years ago, when he sold the property and bought his present home just west of the corporation limits of Ames in Washington township. lle is now living retired on a five-acre tract of land in the midst of which stands a comfortable and commodious residence. His energy, capable management and determination in former years brought to him the capital that now enables him to live retired. He manages to employ his time in the care of his little place so that idleness does not weigh heavily upon his hands, and yet he has ample leisure for the enjoyment of those interests which are to him a source of pleasure.
The home of Mr. and Mrs. Hurst has been blessed with seven children : John, who is living in Trenton, Nebraska; Martin, of Idaho; Alice, the wife of Arthur Walker, a resident of Boone county; Wilbur H., whose home is in Chadron, Nebraska; Ilarriett, the wife of Jesse Bennett, of Ames ; Carrie, the wife of Eugene Burton, of Ames; and Dan W., of Rapid City. South Dakota. Wilbur H., who has the degree of D. V. M., is in the employ of the United States government as veterinary inspector in an interstate movement for the inspection of live stock. He was graduated from the veterinary department of the Iowa State College in 1902. Dan Hurst, also won the D. V. Ml. degree at the Iowa State College of which he is a graduate of 1908, and he holds a similar position to that of his brother in South Dakota.
Mr. Hurst has been a stalwart republican since age conferred upon him the right of franchise and has held nearly all of the township offices. He also keeps well informed upon the questions and issues of the day, and his influence is always on the side of progress and improvement, whether in behalf of the community or of individual interests. His course has been marked by steady advancement, and as the architect of his own fortune he has builded wisely and well.
JOHN A. QUAM.
John A. Quam, one of the substantial farmers of Howard township. was born in La Salle county, Illinois, on the 16th of August, 1870, his parents being John and Lier (Stambusch) Quam. The father was also a native of La Salle county but was of Norwegian extraction. In the family were seven children, five of whom still survive, as follows: Edward, who lives in Howard township ; Hannah, deceased ; John .A., our subject : George, deceased ; Luther, a resident of Howard township: William, living in the same township; and Porter, of Pipestone. Minnesota. The father passed away in the county of his nativity in 1880.
The boyhood and youth of John A. Quam were passed on the family homestead in Hlinois, while his education was obtained in the district
499
HISTORY OF STORY COUNTY
schools of La Salle county. He left the parental roof at the age of eighteen years and came to Story county, Iowa, and engaged in farming. His great ambition in life was to possess a farm of his own and with this end in view he faithfully applied himself, realizing that material success can never be honorably won save by persistent effort sustained by patient diligence. In time he was rewarded by an accumulation of savings which enabled him to buy his first piece of real estate. By economy and careful attention to details he was able to add to his holdings from time to time until he has obtained the title to two hundred acres of land in Story county. His land is well improved and plentifully stocked, and his fields each year yield a profitable harvest.
Mr. Quam completed his arrangements for a home of his own by his marriage to Miss Amanda Sevenson. Seven children have been born of this union, two of whom died in infancy. Those living are: Francis, Earl, Roy, Lillian and Rosie.
Mr. and Mrs. Quam hold membership in the Lutheran church and he is a stanch supporter of the republican party, feeling that the basic prin- ciples of that body best serve the interests of the farming community. He has never taken an active interest in politics, not aspiring to public office, but he fulfills his responsibility as a citizen by casting his ballot at each election for the candidates of the party of his choice. Besides his property interests Mr. Quam is one of the stockholders of the Roland Savings Bank. He has been quite successful and is now able to foresee the time when he can comfortably live retired and enjoy the competence his well spent life has procured.
CAPTAIN I. L. SMITH.
There are some men who never seek public prominence nor notoriety who leave, nevertheless, an indelible impress upon the community in which their active lives were passed. Such is the record of Captain I. L. Smith, who was an enterprising business man, a capable and efficient office-holder and faithful friend and devoted husband and father. From 1887 until his demise he was engaged in the abstract, loan and real-estate business in Nevada, and a spirit of diligence and determination brought to him a liberal clientage and secured to him substantial success.
Mr. Smith was born in Somerset county, Pennsylvania, January 14, 1835, his parents being John H. and Catherine (Dorn) Smith, the former a native of Franklin county, Pennsylvania, born in 1812, while the mother's birth occurred in Germany in 1813. She came to the United States with her parents in 1819, the family home being established in Somerset county, Pennsylvania, where her girlhood days were passed and where she met and married John H. Smith. The latter was a son of Peter Smith, who was
500
HISTORY OF STORY COUNTY
born in the Keystone state and died there at an advanced age. John H. Smith lived for many years in Somerset county, where he died in 1862, his widow becoming a resident of McLean county, Illinois, where she passed away in 1872. In the family of John H. and Catherine ( Dorn) Smith there were seven children.
Like the others of the household, Captain I. L. Smith was reared and educated in the town of Berlin, Pennsylvania, no event of especial impor- tance occurring to vary the routine of life for him until after the outbreak of the Civil war, when his patriotic spirit was aroused and on the 4th of September, 1861, he joined Company C of the Fifty-fourth Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry as a private. On the organization of the regiment, however, he was appointed orderly sergeant and continued to serve with that rank until February 1, 1863, when he was commissioned captain and commanded his company until mustered out of service on the 12th of Sep- tember, 1864. He was a valiant and fearless soldier, and his creditable military record entitled him throughout life to recognition for what he had done for his country.
Following his return north after being honorably discharged Captain Smith resolved to seek a home in the middle west and in November, 1864. removed to McLean county, Illinois, where he carried on farming until 1869. At that date he removed to Story county, lowa, settling at Ames, where he lived until called to public office, at which time he removed to the county scat.
Captain Smith was always an ardent republican and stanchly advocated its political views and belief. He was appointed to the position of deputy clerk of the courts and served in that capacity most acceptably from March. 1875, until January 1, 1877. In the fall of 1876 he was elected clerk of the courts of Story county, and no better testimonial of his fidelity and ability can be given than the fact that he was four times reelected to this office, serving in the clerk's office in all for twelve years. He was a popu- lar official, and his record at all times manifested the wisdom displayed on the part of his fellow townsmen who gave to him their political support.
On the 9th of September, 1857, Captain Smith was united in marriage to Miss Harriet King who was born in Pennsylvania, September 1, 1839. a daughter of John R. and Catherine King, of the Keystone state. Cap- tain and Mrs. Smith became the parents of five children : Marcellus King. a real-estate man of Ames, Iowa ; Charles C., who is living in Kansas City, Missouri ; William 1 ..; Allen O., who was born in Somerset county, Penn- sylvania, April 2, 1863, and died in Chicago, March 23. 1898, leaving a widow; and John Henry, of Kansas City. Charles, William 1 .. and John llenry are all connected with the Union Abstract & Guaranty Company. the first named being president, and the last named being vice president of the company.
Captain Smith was a Mason, belonging to Nevada Lodge, No. 99, .1. F. & .A. M .; Three Times Three Chapter, No. 92, R. A. M. ; and Excalibur

Commandery, K. T. He likewise held membership in the Knights of Pythias and the Grand Army of the Republic, and in those different organ- izations his death was deeply regretted when, on the 19th of October, 1908, lie passed away. He had continued an active factor in the abstract, loan and real-estate business up to the time of his death, and his sterling quali- ties of heart and mind won him the confidence and respect of colleagues and contemporaries in business, and he was admired by all who met him socially.
CHRISTIAN SCHMELLIK.
Among the industrious and progressive farmers of Story county Chris- tian Schmellik should be named, occupying as he does an honored place in the estimation of his neighbors and of the people throughout the com- munity where for many years he has made his home. He was born in Germany, June 9, 1867, a son of John and Mary Schmellik, who brought their family to America, arriving at Colo, Story county, July 7, 1867, the latter part of the journey being accomplished by railroad. The father set- tled on a farm and continued its cultivation for nearly forty years. On October 19, 1906, he retired from active work and is now living at State Center, Marshall county. There were six children in the family.
Christian Schmellik received his education in the common schools and also attended a German school, becoming thoroughly acquainted with both English and German languages. He was reared on the home farm and continued with his father until thirty years of age. He then settled on the place he now owns on section 11, Sherman township, and has cultivated the land with a success that has produced highly gratifying results. He is a general farmer, raising both grains and stock, which he placed upon the market in excellent condition. He has greatly improved his farm, increas- ing the beauty of its appearance by handsome buildings and well kept fences, also by shade and ornamental trees, making it one of the pleasing features of the landscape and greatly adding to its value.
On the Ioth of June, 1897, Mr. Schmellik was united in marriage at the French Grove Lutheran church to Miss Mary Renza, who was born at Drachhausen, Brandenburg, Germany, March 2, 1875, a daughter of Matthew and Anna (Kalusa) Renza, both of whom spent their entire lives in Germany, the mother passing away in 1907 and the father three years later. Mrs. Schmellik came to America, September 7. 1896, with a colony of fifteen persons collected by John Schmellik, the father of our subject, who went to Germany for that purpose. Three children have blessed the union of Mr. and Mrs. Schmellik, namely: Ruby, who was born May 8, 1898, and is attending the common schools and also a German school ; Itvie MI., who was born May 5. 1900, and is now in attendance at the district
502
HISTORY OF STORY COUNTY
school; and Mary A .. who was born January 27. 1904, and is also attend- ing the district school.
Mr. Schmellik is a faithful member of the Lutheran church of French Grove. He gives his support to the republican party and belongs to the progressive element of that organization, believing that the party has within itself the ability to correct abuses that arise from time to time. Although he has not urged his claims for political honors, he served as roadmaster in 1910 and also for a number of years as constable of the township. He has ever since his boyhood been active and energetic in everything he has undertaken and he has shown a faithfulness in the discharge of his duties as a public officer which merited the approval of the people of the township, irrespective of party. It is scarcely necessary to say that today he has the complete confidence of the community and of a wide circle of friends in his part of the county.
MRS. EMILY WYATT HANDSAKER.
Mrs. Ilandsaker, one of the well known and highly esteemed citizens of Nevada, Story county, was born in Indiana in 1838 and is a daughter of Reuben and Mary ( Ellsworth) Wyatt, the father being a native of Virginia and the mother of Ohio. The parents left Indiana and settled in Illinois when Mrs. Handsaker was a child and after about eleven years' residence in the latter state they again removed, this time locating in Story county.
Emily Wyatt was united in marriage to William Handsaker, who was born in England in 1826 and lived in that country until he was twenty-five years old. In 1851 he decided that the United States afforded better opportunities for ambitious young men than the old world and, crossing the ocean, landed in New York. He made his way across the continent to lowa and on arriving in Story county he bought eighty acres of land in Richland township. upon which he located. He added to his holdings from time to time until he was quite an extensive landowner. He was a very capable man and met with a fair degree of success in his various agricul- tural pursuits and was able to live retired during the latter years of his life. Before he retired in 1893, he sold all of his realty hoklings to his sons and bought a residence in Nevada, where he lived until he passed away March 31. 1907.
Mr. Handsaker was an ardent republican and his popularity in the community in which he lived was indicated by his repeated reelection to the various township offices. He was a very public-spirited man as well as most upright and high principled and was highly esteemed and re- spected in the township where he spent almost his entire life. He was a
503
HISTORY OF STORY COUNTY
member of the Grange and a communicant of the English Lutheran church.
Mr. and Mrs. Handsaker were the parents of eight children, of whom six are living, as follows: John Thomas, a resident of Sherman township; William Henry, who lives in Milford township; David, deceased; Horace Greeley, living in Richland township; Joshua Harvey, residing in New Albany township ; Sabina Day; Mona, the wife of James Ilines ; and Mary Ellen, deceased.
Mr. and Mrs. Handsaker became residents of Nevada in 1903 and there she continues to live. She came to Story county when a girl and has spent the greater part of her life in Richland township, where she is highly esteemed and lias many friends. She is one of the pioneers of the county and has been an interested observer of the development and progress of the community and can relate many entertaining incidents of the early days before the advent of the railroads.
SAMUEL RAY.
Samuel Ray, who is temporarily residing in Indianola, Iowa, was for many years identified with general agricultural pursuits in Story county and still owns four hundred and thirty-four and a half acres of land in Indian Creek and Nevada townships. He is numbered among the worthy native sons of this county, his birth occurring in Indian Creek township on the Ist of January, 1855. Extended mention of his father, Judiah Ray, who was one of the early pioneer settlers of Story county, may be found on another page of this work in connection with the sketch of Archibald Ray.
Samuel Ray was reared at home and is indebted to the public schools for the educational advantages which he received in his youth. He was married when twenty-three years of age and subsequently operated the home farm for two years. On the expiration of that period he took up his abode on a farm of his own across the road from the old home place, being busily engaged in its cultivation until 1908. In that year he removed to Indianola, Iowa, in order that his daughters might have the advantage of a course of study in Simpson College. His residence there is only tem- porary, however. His property holdings embrace four hundred and thirty- four and a half acres of land in Indian Creek and Nevada townships and he has long been numbered among the prosperons and representative citi- zens of the county.
On the Ioth of March, 1878, Mr. Ray was united in marriage to Miss Martha Kurtz, a daughter of Jacob Kurtz, who came to Story county from Missouri about 1872 and is still living in Iowa Center at the age of sev- enty-seven years. Mr. and Mrs. Ray are the parents of six children, namely : Bertha, at home; Frank, who follows farming in Indian Creek Vol. 11-26

HISTORY OF STORY COUNTY
township: and Chester, Mina. Veva and Vera. all of whom are under the parental roof. The two last named are twins.
Since age conferred upon him the right of franchise Mr. Ray has sup- ported the men and measures of the democracy but he has never sought office as a reward for his party fealty. Those who know him socially find him a genial gentleman, always courteous and manifesting that deference for the opinions of others which ever wins good will and regard in any land or clime.
THOR O. HEGLAND.
Among the promising young men of Story county should be named Thor O. Hegland, who for five years past has most acceptably filled the position of cashier of the MeCallsburg State Bank, showing a capability which gives brilliant promise as to his future. He is a native of this county, born July 20, 1886, a son of S. O. Hegland, of Roland. He was reared under the favoring influences of farm life and received his early education in the district schools. He was unusually studious and always aimed to be at the head of the class-a position he often succeeded in securing. After leaving the district school he attended school at Decorah, Iowa, and later became a student of the Capital City Commercial College, at Des Moines, taking the complete business course in that institution and graduating with high credit in 1906.
Immediately after returning from Des Moines Mr. Hegland was made cashier of the McCallsburg State Bank, a position he has since filled. Being a young man of fine natural ability and possessing good judgment and clear discrimination, he is well qualified for the responsible position he occupies. He is closely devoted to his work and has gained a reputation in the com- munity as a capable and progressive citizen who is destined to attain a marked degree of success in the field of finances. Naturally endowed with a pleasing appearance, he has a gentlemanly address and possesses the characteristics recognized as most essential in gaining the confidence and respect of others.
Since arriving at voting age he has given his adherence to the republican party, believing that in so doing he is best advancing the permanent inter- ests of the entire country. He is a stanch believer in the Bible and ever since his boyhood has been a consistent member of the Norwegian Lutheran church. It is doubtful whether any man of his age in Story county has won in a higher degree the esteem of those with whom he is associated.
