PARK, Albert V.
Farmer; Sec. 13; P. O. Grinnell; born in Eastport, Me., Jan. 9, 1847; came o this county in 1862; owns 120 acres of land, valued at $45. He is a Congregationalist and Republican. His wife, Mary J. LUMLEY, was born in Iona, Canada, in 1855. Mr. PARK is an intelligent farmer and a good business man.

Note: Transcriber's note: Almost all other entries in this book give the value of land on a per acre basis, ranging from $20-45 per acre. It appears that the words "per acre" should have appeared after the $45 value listed for the land, but were accidentally left out in the original book. ~ "Rock Creek Township Biographies," The History of Jasper County, Iowa, (Chicago: Western Historical Company, 1878)
