THE OLD SETTLERS. |
||
| And Pioneers of Henry County, Iowa - Giving the Year That They Settled in the State. | ||
|
This list includes the names of pioneers and old settlers of Henry County, giving the year that they settled in the state. Pioneers are those who settled in the Territory of Iowa prior to 1847; Old Settlers, those who settled in Iowa prior to 1864. The list of Old Settlers and Pioneers is not to be considered as complete. The record has not been kept many years and no doubt several names from each township have never been recorded on the books of the Old Settlers Association. [Unnamed, undated newspaper clipping, from about August 26, 1895] |
