Elkader Register, Fri. morning, 14 May 1897.

Wm. Woodworth, for many years the postmaster at Millville, died at that place on Monday, of paralysis. He was born at Schoore, Essex county, N.Y., Jan. 1_ (looks like either 16 or 18), 1818. In September, 1838, he drove through to the Territory of Iowa with one horse and a buckboard wagon, bringing his mother with him, locating near Davenport. He located at Millville in 1848, and for a time ran a ferryboat across the Turkey near Millville. He was among the oldest settlers and storekeepers of that vicinity.
