Peter S. Novack was born Oct. 13th, 1840, at Middle Smithfield, Monroe County, in the state of Pennsylvania. He was the son of Philip and Mary Noack.

He grew to manhood in Pennsylvania and on May 4th, 1864, was united in marriage to Emeline Bowman and in 1866 the young couple came to the state of Iowa, where they have lived ever since.

This happy marriage was blessed with seven sons and five daughters, of whom two sons, Samuel and Freddie, preceded their father in death.

He leaves to mourn his departure his faithful wife and the following children: James Noack, Peter Noack, Wm. Noack, Garrison Noack, Charley Noack, Mrs. Ben Morley, and Mrs. John Morarend, all residing in Jefferson township; Mrs. Christ Kickbush, of Osterdock; Mrs. Geo. Kauffman, of Colesburg, and Mrs. John Becker, of Millville township.
