I am looking for information on family members Joseph Phinney b. Nov. 30, 1835 in IA and his brother Leander b. 1831. Parents were Joseph P. and Eliza (McCloud)Phinney. They had 8 children all born in Ohio. They came from Vt. into Ohio and around 1852 the family moved to IA. About 1853 or 1854 Joseph and Leander were merchants in Albia. Joseph moved to Ft. Dodge in 1856 where he later died. Leander remained in Albia. He was married to Mary M. Craig (b. 1837 in OH). They had six children raised in Albia: Lauren Craig; Addie Medora; Emma Leona; Mary Amanda; Frank Albert; and Charles. Around 1900 Leander was in Nebraska, but returned to Albia. I believe he is buried there.
