Notes |
- History of Harrison County, Iowa (1891):
". . . Other early settlers included Joseph A. Deal, in 1852 from Putnam, IN, along with John Deal (father of Joseph, James Deal) and Peter Deal; . . . Andrew R. Cox, son of Abram in 1854; John A. Reel in 1854 from Indiana . . ."
History of Harrison County Iowa (1915), 800-801:
"John W. DEAL - . . . John W. Deal was born on July 29, 1852, in Putnam County, Indiana, a son of James E. and Sarah (Case) Deal, both natives of the Hoosier state.
They grew to years of maturity in their native state, receiving such meager schooling as the educational facilities of that time afforded, but being well trained in all that made for competent manhood and womanhood. Shortly after marriage, they secured from the Government a tract of land containing some hundred and sixty acres. This was all heavily timbered, and the brave young couple set about the task of making themselves a home. After the first small clearing was made, the typical log cabin of pioneer times was erected and gradually the acres were wrested from the grasp of the virgin forest, about 80 acres having been put into a state of cultivation when, in 1854, they disposed of their place and decided to try their fortune in the state of Iowa
[James E. and Sarah (Case) Deal] came directly to Harrison county and located in St. Johns, where they remained for almost two years. In the fall of 1856, they purchased 80 acres of bottom land in section 24 of St. Johns township, which they made their future home. Their original purchase also included 40 acres of timber land, and to this they added from time to time for several years
James E. Deal was known as one of the most thorough farmers of this section and was a man highly respected by all who knew him. Both were members of the Primitive Baptist Church and were honorable and devout people. In politics, James E. Deal was a Democrat although never aspiring to the honor of public office. They lived many years in this section, leading happy and busy lives, and death found both of them on the farm which represented so much of their endeavor. They reared a fine family of ten children, whose names follow: Isaac, deceased; Sarah, widow of Thomas Acre, of Logan, Iowa; John W., the immediate subject of this sketch being the third child in order of birth; Timothy, a farmer located in Washington; Tabitha A., wife of William A. Jones, of St. Johns township, Harrison county, a sketch of whose career will be found elsewhere within the pages of this book; Hannah, wife of Harry Wood of Sumner, Nebraska; Jemima, wife of J. Ellis Jones, of St. Johns township (a sketch of whose life also will be found within these covers); Jacob, a cement contractor located at Council Bluffs, Iowa; Eli, a farmer in Oklahoma; and Harvey, who lives at Missouri Valley, this county."
