On the 23d of December, 1868, Mrs. Elizabeth Ilulings died. She was a sincere Christian, a kind wife and mother, and was highly esteemed through- out the community. Mr. Hulings was again mar- ried, to Miss Sally Ross, June 6, 1869. They are the happy parents of four children : one child died in infancy ; Ralph, born May 13, 1872; Marcus, born Nov. 11, 1874; Maud, born March 5, 1877. In 1875 Mr. Ilulings purchased his present farm, which consists of 129 acres of well-cultivated land. In politics he is a Republican, having affiliated with that party since its organization. Ile cast his first vote for Henry Clay and is always ready to aid in any enterprise for the advancement of edu- cation.
DDISON JOHNSON, a farmer residing on section 13, Jefferson Township, Henry Co., Iowa, is a Trustee of that township. IIe was born in Hendricks County, Ind .. Jan. 1, 1837, and is a son of Jonathan and Ann (Curtis) Johnson. Both were natives of Randolph County,

HENRY COUNTY.
N. C., the parents of both emigrating to Indiana at an early day in the history of that State. The grandparents on both sides lived and died in IIen- dricks County, and but little history can be given of the family. Both reared large families and some of the children of both families came to Iowa. Mention will first be made of the Johnson family : Elihu married Ruth Hadley, and came to Keokuk County, Iowa, and settled in Richland, where he was for twenty years a miller; Charity wedded Aaron MePherson, who also became a resident of Richland; Jonathan, the father of our subject, set- tled in Jefferson Township. Henry County, in 1857, on section 14. Ilis death occurred one month after his coming to this county. Ile was the father of Caroline, widow of James Wright; Emily, wife of William Ilarlan; then our subject, followed by Alfred, who died during the war; he was a mem- ber of Company B, 25th Regiment Iowa Volun- teers. Amanda wedded John Klyon ; Mary E., wife of B. F. Nichell, and Tillman II., who married Eva Perkins, completed the family except some chil- dren who died in infancy. After the death of Mr. Johnson, his widow became the wife of John Har- lan. She died at the age of sixty-four and was buried at the Finley Chapel Cemetery. She was a member of that church for many years and part of her children were also members. Her second hus- band, John Harlan, is also deceased.
Addison Johnson, our subject, was married in 1857 to Miss Veturia Harlan, a daughter of John and Rebecca Harlan. The relationship becomes now somewhat complicated, as John Harlan after- ward became the step-father of his son-in-law. The married life of our subjeet and his young wife was begun in Jefferson Township upon a farm, and to this date they have ever been numbered among her best citizens. In 1863 Mr. Johnson purchased his present farm, and almost all the improvements upon it have been made since he purchased it. They moved into an old log cabin, which has since been replaced by a modern farmhouse, and the broad acres which have brought baek large returns have been mostly broken since he became their owner. Mr. and Mrs Johnson are the parents of five chil- dren: Harvey, the husband of Emma Mathews, youngest daughter of Madison Mathews, who has a
sketch elsewhere in this work; William E. married Lilian Roberts, a daughter of Robert Roberts, of this county ; Jonathan, Johnson and Ada are yet unmarried.
Since 1875 Mr. Johnson has been a member of the School Board, and in October, 1884, was elected a Trustee of his township and his official acts have been highly appreciated by the public, and at the last election held in the township he was elected his own successor, to serve for a term of three years by a vote in excess of his party ticket. Mr. Johnson and his family hold a high social position in the community and are held in high regard by their friends and neighbors.
W ILLIAM BALL, a farmer residing on see- tion 33, Scott Township. Henry Co., Iowa, was born on board the steamboat " James M. White," on the Mississippi River near Natchez, Miss., March 17, 1845. His parents, William and Mary (Bakewell) Ball, both natives of Trent, England, were en route for America when our subject was born, having been transferred from the ocean steamer to a Mississippi river packet at New Orleans. They finally settled in Mercer County, Ill., where the father purchased eighty acres of Government land, and there he resided until the time of his death, which occurred June 25, 1872, when fifty-seven years of age. His wife still sur- vives him, and resides in Mercer County, Ill.
Our subject received his education in the dis- trict schools, and when but seventeen years of age enlisted in the War for the Union, Sept. 17, 1861, becoming a member of Company G, 30th Illinois Volunteer Infantry. He served twenty-one months and participated in the battles of Ft. Ilenry, Ft. Donelson, Corinth and Briton Lane. Mr. Ball was discharged on account of disabilities received dur- ing the service.
Returning to Mercer County, Ill .. June 20, 1863, William Ball attended school in Keithsburg for a year. Learning the harness-maker's trade, he fol- lowed that occupation for four years, and later worked on a farm for two years. Emigrating to Henry County in 1872, he settled in Canaan Town-
515
HENRY COUNTY.
ship, purchasing eighty aeres of unimproved land. Developing a farm, he there lived for two years, but in 1876 he sold and purchased eighty acres on section 33, of Scott Township, where he yet resides.
On the 10th of September, 1872, the marriage of William Ball and Dorcas Patterson, a native of Greene County, Pa., was celebrated. Her parents, William and Maria (Bricker) Patterson, were also natives of Pennsylvania, and now reside at Win- field, Iowa. Mr. and Mrs. Ball are the parents of seven children-Mary Ann, George W., Jenny and Jesse, twins, William, Edward and Thomas Clif- ford. Mr. Ball is a member of the A. F. & A. M., and the G. A. R. Post. Politically he is a Democrat. Mrs. Ball is a member of the Baptist Church. Though comparatively a young man, Mr. Ball is one of the enterprising farmers of Scott Township.
2 ATHANIEL HOBBS, residing on section 16, Tippecanoe Township, Henry County, is a native of Washington County, Pa., born April 14, 1830, and is a son of Nathaniel and Elizabeth (Hamilton) Hobbs, the father a native of Maryland, and the mother of Virginia. When Nathaniel was a lad of seven, his parents emigrated to Knox County, Ohio, residing there until the spring of 1844. They then came to Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, and his father purchased 140 acres of wild land, on which he made extensive improvements, and resided there until his death. At the age of seventy-two, Ang. 12, 1862, he was called home. His widow still survives, and is residing with her son-in-law, Isaac Walker, in Tippecanoe Township. If she should live until March, 1888, and in all probability she will, having excellent health for a lady of her age, she will be eighty-four years old. Mr. Hobbs, Sr., was a carpenter by trade, and was serupulously honest in all his dealings. It was his pride to make bis word respected by everyone, and none knowing the man ever doubted his sin- cerity. Politically he was a Democrat, and always took an active interest in all public affairs. At his death he had considerable property, all of which was made by his own labor, having commenced life a poor boy. To this worthy couple were born
eight children, six of whom are still living. They were : John, who died in 1853, at the age of twen- ty-eight, leaving a wife and four children, who are still residing on a farm in Warren County, Iowa; Mary Ann, wife of Jacob Baltzley, residing in Shawnee County, Kan .; Nathaniel, our subject; Albert, living in Center Township, Henry County ; Isabel, who wedded Harvey Willeford, of Stock- ton, Cal., and died in that city in May, 1887, at the age of forty-six; Rachel, widow of Merritt Welch. is residing in Tippecanoe Township; Hen- rietta, wife of Isaac Walker, also lives in Tippe- canoe Township, and Amanda, wife of David Norton, a farmer of Washington Territory.
Nathaniel Ilobbs, the subject of our sketch, was reared upon a farm, but in early life learned the trade of a plasterer. On the 30th of November, 1865, he was joined in marriage with Lydia Roark, a native of Indiana. Her parents were Theodore and Phoebe (Smith) Roark, both of whom were natives of Cincinnati, Ohio. To this union four children have been born: Louisa, wife of Warner Freeman, residing in Tippecanee Township; Phobe, wife of La Fayette Ilousel. also of Tippecanoe Township; John Wesley and Cora May are still inmates of the paternal home. Mr. Hobbs is one of the enterprising and prominent farmers of Tip- pecanoe Township. Financially he is a self-made man, and is the owner of one of the finest farms in the county, consisting of 211 acres. Ile has always done his part in all educational and other enterprises for the common good of the county. lle and his estimable wife are sincere Christians, and earnest workers for their Master, and we gladly welcome them to a place in the history of Henry County.
W. HANNA, M. D., of Winfield, Iowa, was born in Washington County, Pa., on the 23d of September, 1846. His parents, Thomas and Jane (Cooper) Hanna, were also natives of the same county, and his father was a farmer by occupation. Dr. Hanna grew to man- hood in his native county, receiving there a com- mon-school and academic education. At the age of twenty-two he entered upon the study of bis
516
HENRY COUNTY.
chosen profession under the tutorship of Dr. D. W. Robinson, of Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. He also attended the medical department of the Iowa State Univer- sity at Iowa City, receiving a diploma of gradua- tion from there in 1873. Ile afterward received special instructions at the hospital in St. Louis. On completing his studies, Dr. Hanna immediately be- gan practicing. He went to Solon, Iowa, but remained there only a short time, when he went to Cedar Rapids, where he practiced his profession until 1875. He then went to St. Louis, and in 1879 came to Winfiel, Iowa.
On the 26th of October, 1882, Dr. Hanna led to the marriage altar Miss Carrie E. Duncan, of Coun- eil Bluffs, Iowa, a daughter of Wilson and Mary (Butler) Dunean. At the time of the breaking out of the yellow fever at St. Louis in 1878, our sub- jeet was an assistant at the quarantine hospital in that city, at which time his health became poor and has never been fully regained. The Doctor is a member of the Central Medical Society. Ile is a strong Democrat, always ready to aid in the ad- vancement of his party. He was appointed Post- master under the present administration, Sept. 13, 1885, and has been a candidate for the Legislature and is at present Mayor of Winfield. He is a Master Mason, a member of Good Faith Lodge No. 235, and of the Royal Arch Chapter at Wash- ington. The Doetor is one of the prominent citizens of Henry County. He has been in practice here since 1879, and his patronage each year grows larger, as the respect of the citizens for Dr. Ilanna grows larger. He has been for years Assistant Surgeon of the B. & N. W., and B. & W. R. R., and is Surgeon-in-Chief of the two systems.
G EORGE A. KING is one of the prominent citizens and pioneer settlers of Henry County, Iowa, residing on section 36, Scott Town- ship. He is a native of Broome County, N. Y., born Aug. 12, 1820. Ilis father, William W. King. was of English descent, though born in Broome County, and his mother, Edna (Adams) King, was of German and English descent. Lyman King, the grandfather of our subject, was a native of Massa-
chusetts. William W. King was a farmer, and reared a family of seven children: Eliza, who wedded Lueins Eldridge, deceased, resides in Broome County, N. Y .; Amos, a painter, also of Broome County ; Lyman, deceased ; Harry, a farmer of Broome County; Mary, who wedded Calvin Tyler, deceased, now resides in Chenango County. N. Y .; Lydia L., wife of Clark Ferguson, of Broome County, N. Y .; Zenas was killed in the battle of the Wilderness during the Rebellion, and Franklin died in childhood.
Our subject was reared on the home farm, and at the age of twenty left home, going to Hillsdale County, Mich., where he engaged as a farm hand for ten years, teaching school in the winter time, when work was searce. At the end of that time he purchased a farm which he cultivated for three years. In 1856 Mr. King came to Henry County, Iowa, purchasing eighty acres of land on section 36 of Scott Township. By care and cultivation the raw land has been transformed into one of the finest farms in the township. Every tree upon the place was set out by Mr. King, and the farm purchased in 1856 could scarcely be recognized as the one of to-day.
On the 17th of June, 1845, Mr. King led to the marriage altar Mary Lauder, a native of Montgom- ery County, N. Y., and a daughter of John Lauder, who was of Scotch descent. Their union has been blessed with two children : Edna C., wife of Allen Swan, of Scott Township, and Harry G., residing at home.
Mr. King held the office of Township Clerk for one year in Michigan, and of Township Trustee of Scott Township. He is at present Notary Public, having received his appointment from Gov. Sher- man. He has also held the office of Postmaster of Mt. Union for a year. In politics he is a stalwart Republican, and in early life was a Whig, and cast his first Presidential vote for IIenry Clay in 1844. Ile was a delegate to the State Convention, June 27, 1881, which nominated Gov. Sherman. Such men as Mr. King may well furnish an example for rising generations. His business, social and moral life is free from reproach. Commencing life with no pecuniary aid he has yet by his own honest labor accumulated a comfortable competence, and is the
517

owner of 120 acres of land, all under cultivation, and none of Henry County's citizens are more uni- versally respected than is George A. King.

W ILLIAM A. JESSUP is a farmer residing on section 12, Jefferson Township, Henry Co., Iowa. One of the oldest families in this part of the county is the Jessup family, who came in the spring of 1850. William A., the sub- ject of this sketch, was born in Guilford County, N. C., Jan. 26, 1821, and is a son of Levi and Jemima (Unthank) Jessup. Both were natives of North Carolina, of English parentage, and the ceremony which united them for life was performed accord- ing to the customs of the Friends, of which denom- ination they were members. In that State their two eldest children were born-Emily and William. Emily is now the widow of George Snoddy ; she was first married to Dr. David Wade, by whom she had three children : William, a physician in Los Angeles, Cal .; Robert D., also in Los Angeles, and Anna, deceased. In 1821 the family removed to Indiana, and located on Government land, which Levi purchased at the first land sale. The Jessup family were residents of Indiana before Hendricks County was organized, and Levi Jessup was the first County Clerk elected of that county, the term lasting seven years. He became a very popular man in this county, and in 1831 was elected a member of the State Senate, which oflice he aceept- ably filled. During their residence in Indiana, Levi cleared up a farm in Hendricks County, and also engaged in the mercantile business for a num- ber of years at Stilesville, from which village they removed to Henry County, Iowa, in 1850. Six children were born to them in Indiana: Calvin, who died in Henry County, unmarried ; Ruth A., wife of Dr. William Mathews, deceased, of Putnam County, Ind .; Jonathan, who married Elizabeth Walker, of Jefferson Township, Henry Co., Iowa; S. M. Jessup, who married Minerva Dann, of Al- bany, Gentry Co., Mo .; he was a member of the 33d Missouri Infantry, and was wounded at Tu- pelo, Miss., and died soon after from the effects of the wounds; Oliver, a resident of Jefferson
Township, is the husband of Kate Adams, and Solon, a practicing physician of Salem, Ore; he married his wife in that State.
William, onr subject, accompanied by his brother Jonathan, located first in Jefferson Township in the fall of 1849, and was followed by the remainder of the family in the spring of 1850. Levi Jessup purchased eighty acres, now the home farm of his son Oliver, while our subject purchased the eighty acres on which he now resides, to which he later added other purchases. Upon this he built a log house immediately north of his present residence, but in the same yard. The old cabin still stands and is used as an out-building. Levi Jessup became as popular in Henry County as in his own county (Hendricks) in Indiana, and in 1852 was nominated by the Whig party of Henry County and elected a member of the General Assembly. Ile became a member of the Christian Church, being by reason of his official positions disenfranchised as a member of the Society of Friends. To the Christian Church both himself and wife belonged from that date until the time of their death. During the progress of the war two of the sons, Jonathan and Merrill, enlisted. Jonathan was first a member of the 4th Iowa Cavalry, but was transferred to the 68th Col- ored Troops, being commissioned Second Lieuten- ant, serving in that capacity until his discharge from the service.
The aged father was as full of patriotism as were nis sons, and upon the organization of the cele- brated "Graybeard" regiment of Iowa, he enlisted and served for several months, being discharged later on account of ill-health. Ilis death occurred in 1866. Ile lived to see the principles long advo- cated by him become a permanency. The death of the tender wife and loving mother occurred in 1861 at the age of sixty-six years, while her hus- band, Hon. Levi Jessup, reached the mature age of seventy-four years. Only four of the Jessup family are now living: Oliver and William, in Jefferson Township; Dr. Solon, in Oregon, and Jonathan in Washington, D. C.
William A., our subject, was married, Oct. 13, 1851, to Miss Julia A. Roads, a daughter of George and Elizabeth (Boyd) Roads, who were also a prominent family in Henry County, one of the sons,
518
HENRY COUNTY.
Addison Roads, being County Treasurer for two terms. Both her parents died in Jefferson Town- ship. They reared four children: Mary, the wife of Arthur MeClure, Esq .; Addison wedded Nancy McClure; Julia, the wife of our subject, and Lind- ley M., who became the husband of Martha Payne, a sister of the Hon. C. W. Payne. Two daughters have come to the home of William A. Jessup and his wife: Ada, wife of J. S. Mathews, and Viola, still at home with her parents. There are no sons to bear the name of their ancestors. The Jessups can trace their ancestry back to Old England, but the early history of the family cannot be given.
William A. Jessup has served his township in about all the positions the people can give. Ile was elected Township Clerk in 1851, the next year Township Trustee, followed by the office of Justice of the Peace, later serving four years as County Supervisor, and upon his election later, as Justice, he refused to serve and failed to qualify, preferring to give his attention to his own business. Ilis home is presided over by a hospitable wife, and we are pleased to give this sketch a deserved place in this volume.
W R. HARKNESS, one of the prominent citi- zens and early settlers of Henry County, Iowa, residing on section 2, Scott Town- ship, was born in Delaware County, N. Y., Nov. 27, 1842. His parents, J. B. and Margaret (Fleming) Harkness, emigrated to Berry County, Mich., in 1852, and two years later they came to Henry County, Iowa, making this their home until the time of their death. Six children blessed their union : Mary E. became the wife of A. I. Beam, of Woodson County, Kan .; Margaret A. married William Bennett, a resident of Scott Township; W. R., the subject of this sketch; James E., a resident of Union County, Iowa; Sarah J., wife of Dr. B. B. Shockey, a practicing physician of Scotia, Neb .; and George T., residing in Yates Center, Kan. In polities J. B. Harkness was a Democrat, strong in his convictions. He and his wife were members of the Presbyterian Church, and were active workers
in their Master's vineyard. Mr. Harkness departed this life in 1881, his wife surviving him until 1886. Their union was of the happiest; they lived to- gether for more than half a century, saw their children all comfortably settled in life, and when their work here on earth was finished they cheer- fully responded to their Master's call.
Of the many prominent citizens of Seott Town- ship, none are more truly deserving of a place in Henry County's history than W. R. Harkness, and his interesting family. Mr. Harkness eame with his family to this county in 1854, and here has been his home ever since. Ile was reared upon her virgin soil, and received his education in the com- mon schools and Howe's Academy. Ilis love for his country caused him to take up arms for the Union, and he enlisted in Company HI, 45th Iowa Volunteer Infantry, in 1864. He was mustered into service at Keokuk, and then went to Benton Bar- racks, St. Louis, and subsequently proceeded to Memphis, Tenn. While at Moscow, Tenn., he did guard duty on the railroad, being in the 16th Corps. Serving until the elose of the war, he was mustered out at Keokuk, Iowa, in 1865.
In 1868 Mary E. Thompson became the wife of Mr. Harkness. She was a native of Ohio, born Jan. 27, 1848. Five children have been born to them, three daughters and two sons: Mary, Eva and William Glenn, deceased ; those living are Maggie L., Lois and Elmo. Mr. Harkness has always been a Re- publican, and cast his first Presidential vote for Abraham Lincoln. He has held the office of Trus- tee of his township. He is a member of the Mort Hobart Post, G. A. R. Mr. and Mrs. Harkness are beth members of the United Presbyterian Church. On a fine farm of eighty acres, all under cultiva- tion, Mr. Harkness and his estimable wife reside.

subsequently removing to Morgan County, Ind., residing there until the fall of 1839, then emigrated to Henry County, Iowa, settling on section 22 of Tippecanoe Township. Here the father bought 160 acres of raw land, and engaged in farming until the time of his death, which occurred in 1869. Mrs. Ilobson is still living, in Albia, Iowa. She was born Jan. 10, 1800.

Eliza, deceased ; Calvin, a merchant in Clarinda, Page Co., Iowa, was a soldier in the 4th Iowa Cavalry.
Our subject was reared on the farm where he now lives, and was educated at the district schools of his township. He has lived here continuously since the year 1839, with the exception of two years, which he spent in Lee County, where he was engaged in farming. He was united in marriage, Aug. 16, 1856, to Mary Winslow, a native of North Carolina, and a daughter of John and Mary (Smith- ers) Winslow, both natives of North Carolina. Mr. and Mrs. Winslow came to this county in the year 1850, settling in Salem Township, where they lived until 1874. They then removed to Cowley County, Kan., at which place they both departed this life, the mother going to her final rest in 1881, and the father in 1882. They were both devoted Christians, being members of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
Mr. and Mrs. Hobson have been the parents of four children : Flora Ellen, born Nov. 13, 1858, is the wife of Emerson Martin, and is now living in Winfield, Kan .; Elmira, born April 14, 1861, is the wife of H. C. Cooper, of Salem Township; Nolan C., born May 14, 1863, died in infancy; Edgar, born May 11, 1874, is at home. Mr. and Mrs. Hobson are members of the Missionary Baptist Church, taking an active interest in all church work. Mr. Hobson owns forty acres of land under a fine
state of cultivation. He is one of the oldest set- tlers of the county, is universally respected, and has the confidence and good-will of all. Politically, he belongs to the Union Labor party.
MOS B. MONTGOMERY, deceased, was one of the best known and most influential citizens of Trenton Township, Henry Coun- ty, in whose affairs he took a deep interest, and exercised a wide influence. He was born in Shelby County, Ind., May 25, 1828, and was a son of James and Catherine (Grunadyke) Montgomery, the former a native of Ireland, and the latter born in Holland. The father was a successful farmer, and accumulated a competence before his death. The subject of this sketch remained in his native State until twenty years of age, and in 1848 came to Iowa, purchasing a tract of land near the present capital of the State, Des Moines. The year follow- ing, like thousands of others, he sought fortune in the new Eldorado, on the shores of the broad Pa- cifie, and was one of the original '49ers of Califor- nia. There he engaged in mining, and did what- ever other work came to his hand. He staid there but two years, in which time he accumulated some money, and returned to the States in 1851, locating first in Indiana, but in 1853 he again came to Iowa, purchasing land near Trenton, in Trenton Township, from Evan Jay, one of the earliest set- tlers of Henry County. On this place Mr. Mont- gomery lived until his death, which occurred Ang. 9, 1877.
