SAMUEL KNEPPER
Another pioneer of Pymosa, Samuel Knepper, entered land on section 2, in the spring of 1854. He was a native of Pennsylvania, coming from Ohio to this place. He remained in the township about two years, when he removed to Council Bluffs, Pottawattamie county, and engaged in the drug business. He died there about twelve or fifteen years ago.
