The New Era Humeston, Wayne co. Iowa February 18, 1886 The First and Last Criminal at Ft. Madison The prisoner longest in service is No. 730, Samuel Trogden, sent June 29, 1867, from Wapello county for life, for murder. He has been a good soldier, and had served a term in this prison before the war for horse stealing. The next 'veteran' is No. 823, J.B. Mathews, committed May 1868, from Washington county for murder. Both were well behaved and Mathews is too old to work. The youngest recruit came to-day, bears the name of Johnson, and gets the number 4,277, which represents the total number of men who have been confined here since the prison passed under state control in 1849. The first prisoner, or No. 1, was Isaac Grimes, of Cedar county, committed September 22, 1849, under a sentence for sixty days for "assault with intent to commit great bodily injury." Grimes was a native of Indiana, 32 years old, and some man had probably called him a liar, which no Indiana man would take. He was pardoned after languishing eight days. This prison was began under federal auspices in 1839, but there is no record beyond "No. 1" as above noted. -- Senator Young in the Atlantic Telegraph.

Actually, "Fred Lewis" was actually Lewis Fredrick Linkin, born 8 Oct 1887 in Henry Co IA. You are correct that his parents were William (Ohio) and Sarah (Iowa). Will send more later. RC "His Grandparents were Fred Lewis Linkin and Ina Ellen Hanks".

I am trying to assist my cousin with information to include in their family Bible. His Grandparents were Fred Lewis Linkin and Ina Ellen Hanks. They lived in New London, IA and were getting up in years by 1965. I would appreciate any information. I am guessing that Fred's parents were William and Sarah. I located a William and Harriet Hanks in the vicinity, and wonder if they might be parents of Ina. Thank you, Sheila (Williamson) Sonka

Sheila, New London is in Henry co. and Ancestry's 1930 index for New London has a household of Fred L. & Ina E. LURKIN, , both 42, born Ia.

Good Morning Everyone - I'll try to answer what I do know about the replies/questions in regards to looking for and/or finding Albert R. Goodwin. I already have a copy of the 1895 Iowa, Benton County Census with Albert and Estella together - no kids. I also have a copy of their marriage record from the Linn County Records (married in Cedar Rapids in late January 1891. Albert's dad is Ferris/Farris Goodwin and Sophia Brown Goodwin Pitts. Estella Petit's folks are Eugene and Mary Petit (no maiden name was given for Mary). Blood ancestors for me (my hubby actually) are the Sophia Brown line so I do not have in depth search on the Goodwin's and Petit's. How I know the Goodwin and Petit lines originally come together is through Albert's dad, Ferris. Ferris' sister, Emily Goodwin married a Petit; Hector T. Petit. To further complicate things, Sophia's older sister, Martha Ann Brown, married Ferris' brother, John Nathanial Goodwin and they have a bunch of kids; sooooooooo, brothers married sisters. Martha and John N. Goodwin had a kid named William. Both Martha and John had passed away by 1900. I don't know if Albert died or he and Estella divorced and she remarried. I do not think that the William Goodwin that Estella married belongs to Martha and John....not sure why I eliminated that tho. Dick, I haven't contact the Benton County Genealogy Society to date....I thought I'd ask the list first if anyone had access to deaths (either a diskette, a fee paid source that would provide such a thing, or someone from Benton County itself that has access to those kinds of records, etc....That was more of a time thing than anything since the resource would be available to them now. Contacting Benton County myself is going to have to be my next step. In regards to Albert's year of birth, I've only jotted that down in my FTM Program because of another source...probably the 1870 Fed'l census. The return of marriage record also indicates that his yr. of birth was more likely/closer to 1870 (January 1891 minus age next birthday listed as 21 = 1870). Unfortunately Jeanne, Albert's middle initial is R. - possitive. Wish it were as easy as you indicated. : - ( I guess I'll take that as a "No, nobody has access to late 1800/ early 1900 death records for Iowa." So many loose ends on this family it's driving me nuts! You folks are still the bomb!

Dee, Have you used Familysearch.org? or Rootsweb.com before to look for him? I found that James Vinton/Vincent was born 17 Jan 1855 and died 18 May 1932 Keokuk Co. Also has wife LaVisa Elanora Hamilton married 8 Feb 1891 (may the Louisa you listed) have child Blanche Winifred b. 7 Mar 1892.

Hi Dee, Before you look for death records you have to follow your people up the census ladder to determine where they may have been living when they died. That will answer many of your other questions as well. In 1900 & 1910 James & family are in Warren twp, Keokuk co. In 1920, in the neighboring co. of Mahaska, 1st ward of Oskaloosa are James & family. Same place in 1930 finds the widow Ella Dawson. Dick May you live to be a hundred, with an extra year to repent!

Mornin' Cathie, Have you contacted the Benton co. gene soc. for their assistance? I am curious about the age of Albert Goodwin. Your post indicated a circa 1872, the 1895 indicates circa 1870.

Lana, I would be most interested in this information if you find anything. I have a Horace Smith Jewell who married Cynthiana A McCullough in Kansas per the 1860 census. She died before 1870 and they had a son John who was born somewhere in Iowa by 1865. Horace is remarried to Phebe Flanagan a wd with three children and is living in Missouri by the 1870 census. I do not know where in Iowa John was born and have not found him after the 1880 census. Horace Jewell may have something to do with this case as they came to Iowa for some reason that I have not found. I believe Horace's parents may have been James and Jane.

I have the 1882 History of Winneshiek & Allamakee Counties and it has a bio for a Jacob Jewell on P. 597. It is short, so I've typed it below. _____________________________________ Jacob Jewell, Sec. 9, Decorah tp.: P. O Decorah; farmer and stock riser; son of Elihu and Anna Wymer Jewell, was born November 4th, 1825 in Knox County, Ohio, where his boyhood was spent alternately at the district school winters, and on the farm summers. He married Miss Emily Headington February 27, 1849, and the following spring moved to Wyandotte Co., where he was engaged in farming until the spring of 1850; he sold out, and started for the west, locating about two miles above where he now lives, remaining there a few years until he purchased 320 acres where he now resides. The land joins the corporation of West Decorah on the north. He owns altogether 914 acres, being mostly located on the Upper Iowa river bottom, making it one of the most desirable farms in the Co. for raising of stock, in which he is especially engaged, having some of the finest in the Co. Mr. J. is one of the live, energetic and successful farmers of the Co.; he has served as a member of the board of supervisors of Winneshiek Co. His children are Benjamin A., John A., and Frank. He has lost two by death, Thomas N. and James W. _____________________________________ Your B. E. could Benjamin A. I hope this helps you. Grace > Does anyone out there have access to this book?

Most public libraries provide free access to Heritage Quest if you are a library cardholder. Heritage Quest is a subscription for genealogy materials, census records, and books in print. If the Past & Present of Winneshiek County has been published, it's probably available at Heritage Quest. If you have access to a local public library of some size, then you can probably get this bio at no charge. Hope this helps.

Does anyone out there have access to this book? I am interested in the biographies of B. E. Jewell, pg 46, Frank Jewell, pg. 50, & J. A. Jewell, pg. 49. I understand there was also a book printed including Winneshiek & Allamakee Counties in the 1880's, I would also be interested in any Jewell biographies in that book.

There is a publication called "The Bibliography of Iowa Newspapers" or similar. It was made by the Iowa Pilot Project, a test by the Library of Congress or NARA and was to be the first of many. The library in Ames (Story) IA has a copy as does the IGS Lib in DesMoines. That publication lists every newspaper that could be learned of and whether any copies still exist and if so where. The Iowa Archives in Des Moines and Iowa City have microfilm of the large majority of old newspapers. Others are only available in a local library or museum. I found some in Maxwell (Story) museum that had never been microfilmed. I believe the librarian at Ames Public Library would do a look up for you.
