The History of Polk Township, Taylor County, Iowa by Mrs Frank W. [Fannie Reid] Shields, 1965; page 47

Peter Fine, was born in Rowan County, North Carolina in 1808, and came with his parents to Indiana when a young man. He married Elizabeth A. Hybarger, of Fountain County, Indiana, daughter of Johnathan Hybarger. They came to Iowa in 1857 and bought a steam mill, which he operated for some time. He later bought a farm of 200 acres in Polk Township. Their children were: Aaron Columbus, Alonzo Washington, Johnathan Marion, Ephriam Jasper, Stephen Arnold Douglas, Harriet, Martha and America.

Mr Fine gave each of his sons 40 acres of land when they were married, and to each daughter he gave 2 horses and 1 cow. He donated the land for the (now done away with) Fine school house. The Fine children all located in Polk Township and did much toward helping in civic affairs.

The Fines, in Indiana were all Lutherans, but as they came west became members of the Methodist Church.

Peter Fine was a preacher and took a decided stand on religious and moral questions. Politically he was identified with the Democratic party.

Mr Fine died in June 1887. Mrs Fine was born in 1816 and died in 1891.
