Isaac C Harmon, who for almost sixty years has been a resident of Boone county, was born in Richland county, Ohio, October 25, 1832, and is a son of Horatio and Lucy (Clark) Harmon, who in 1818 removed from Vermont to Richland county, Ohio, where they spent the remainder of their lives. In their family were eight children, but Isaac C is now the only one living. In the fall of 1854, he came to Iowa and after spending a short time in Polk county became a resident of Boone county in the spring of 1855. Here he commenced herding cattle for Sebastian Mackey and has since been connected with the Mackey family. He is widely and favorably known in the locality where he resides and has many warm friends in Harrison township.
