Why?
Because of U.B. Church Rev. and farmer, David Watrous
http://www.iowaz.info/surname/watrous.htm
and other U.B.
abolitionists such as Dr. Samuel Wroe
http://www.iowaz.info/surname/wroe.htm a free colored/ethnic
neighborhood of pioneer farmers interspersed with European farmers, developed across the northern portion of Westfield.Twp and into
Illyria.Twp, Fayette.Co.IA, beginning in the early 1850's, a decade before the
Civil War started. These settlers and descendents such as the
Dixon's
http://www.iowaz.info/surname/dixon.htm Susan Collins
http://www.iowaz.info/surname/collinssusan.htm would interrogate into
the history of Fayette County, Iowa, especially in Westfield and Illyria
Townships.
David Watrous (1789-1864),United
Brethren minister and abolitionist, encouraged some free blacks and 'coloreds'
to follow his family to pioneer farms in Fayette Co, Iowa, starting by 1852.
David Watrous led the way to Fayette Co, Iowa.
http://www.iowaz.info/surname/watrous.htm
...Beginning in 1852, a historic free 'mulatto, colored, black'
neighborhood was
pioneered in Westfield.Twp, just north of Westfield (Fayette) village, from just
east of Dunham Grove through the Spring Valley
neighborhood and eastward to the Frog Hollow, Albany, Lima and into
western Illyra.Twp, of Fayette County,
Iowa.
...United Brethren Minister David Watrous (1789-1864) would encourage and lead
the settlement of the 'colored' families he was familiar with into Fayette
County starting in 1851/1852, shortly after land in the area was opened for
entry and purchase. Into the 1860=1870's the early successful farm
ownership would encourage a other free 'colored' families to move to the Spring
Valley to Lima area.
...By the time of Rev. David Watrous's death in 1864, 12 yrs after coming to
Fayette County, many of the surnames in the 'colored' neighborhood, the surnames buried at Pleasant Hill Cemetery, were established
farmers, especially Bass, Coleman, Dean, Epps, Graham, Lewis, Moore, Tann,
Thorp, Wilson. Other wold come later or marry into the surnames to
include; Crosswhite,
Dover,
Gamble,
Garner, Hebrank,
Herbst,
Hovey, Howard, Olson,
Sanders/Saunders, Stepp.
...David's son George, a U.B. Minister and pioneer farmer in Clayton Co, Iowa, and other
Watrous family members were also
involved. George would farm in Mallory.Twp, Clayton.Co.IA into the 1890's
but eventually move on to Cedar Falls in Black Hawk Co,
Iowa. The remainder of David's children moved westward, with most ending up in
Washington state. Within a couple of decades there would be no Watrous
members near the 'colored' neighborhood farms where they had taken the
lead in their establishment.
...The area around Albany and Lima had other active abolitionists
families such as the Wroe and Houlsworth surnames.

...David Watrous probably was probing for land in
Fayette Co, Iowa, from Clayton Co, Iowa, as soon as 1850 when entry land opened
above the Neutral Ground line. Many men were 'squatting' and claiming land
before entering acres on the book. It can be speculated that David Watrous is
the one major reason for the 'colored' or ethnic family settlement in northern
Westfield.Twp, as David not only led the way to land claims, but remained on
location with them as a farmer, U.B. minister and mentor until his 1864 death.
...After about 1870, I do not suspect major Watrous influence other than son Rev
David remained in Clayton.Co. and a couple of other offspring were around until
moving westward. Once established on farms about the same time as Rev David
Watrous,
and within the European pioneer farm neighborhoods, the colored families would
have had enough influence and contacts to draw a few other relatives and friends
that they knew in Illinois or
Indiana. The number would never have been great as the area land was bought up
and occupied quickly.
...Most ethnic offspring would soon marry within the groups surnames, but also
there were marriages with
area European families and numerous would remain to farm in the area. After David
Watrous died, his wife Rebecca lived with a young couple just below the entry 80a farm of
David.
...David Watrous remained closely associated with the 'colored' families from Spring
Valley neighborhood through Lima, and would have continued as an active U.B.
minister and abolitionist with contacts through his son Rev George in Clayton.Co
all the way back across IL, IN and OH. The main reason for the location from
Spring Valley across Albany, Frog Hollow and Lima would have been the more basic
structure and abolitionist stance of the U.B. Church rather than the more highly
structured M.E. church settling in Fayette. In time, many of the U.B. patrons
would attend or join the M.E. congregation in Fayette.
Thomas Peterman's Booklet regarding early
1840-1850's Fayette.Co.IA, written 1900+,
pp77-81, copied intact,
"The Colored Settlement Between Fayette and West Union."
...Before the (Civil) war Iowa was, as it has been since, a free State, and
while it joined Missouri, a slave state, but few colored people were to be found
here. But there was a settlement north of Fayette (2-3mi) that was
peculiar and different to anything known elsewhere in this part of the state.
It was composed almost entirely of men of color, all of them dark enough to have
made good slaves, and yet but few of them wholly black. These people were
without doubt a mixture of African, Portuguese and other nationalities.
When they first came here they were commonly called mulattoes, but in later
years this neighborhood has been commonly spoken of as the colored settlement.
...There was in the early fifties a man living here by the name of Rev. Watrous,
whom the people called Father Watrous, who had known some of these colored folks
in Illinois. He wrote to them setting out the great advantages to be
found in this country, and advising some of them to come out at once and
look it over and take up land, they found it to their liking. At that time
probably more than half of the county (Fayette) was still government land.
During 1852, T.R. (Thomas) Bass, is father and Benj. Anderson took his advice
and came to see the much praised land. They liked the country and decided
it was good enough for them and located. T.R. Bass took and eighty where
Will Finch now lived and Benj. Anderson one south of it. Father Bass took
claim on land now owned by Mr. Saulsbury. These parties went back to
Kankakee, Illinois, and began making preparations to remove to this county with
their families. In April 1853, J.J. Epps and Seymour Wilson also came out
to see how they like the looks of things. Epps at once bought where C. C.
Finch now owns, and they wrote back for all to come along as soon as possible.
In May, 1853, a goodly number of families came through by team from the vicinity
of Kankakee, where most of them had been living, and they all settled in the
vicinity we have just mentioned. Notwithstanding the sentiment of
the people (whites) here was strongly anti-slavery, the coming among them of
these colored people was not looked upon with favor, and there were, at times
various consultations among the settlers to see what had best be done about it.
But as they settled down to work and attended to their own business, and seemed
to take great interest in the matter of education, the prejudice against them
soon died away, and for years they have been looked upon much the same as other
(white) people. Seymour Wilson of whom we have spoken, was digging a well
north of Albany and in some way it caved in on him and he was killed. The
white people did not turn out readily to assist at his burial and he was
buried on his own premises, but his remains were afterwards removed to the
cemetery (Pleasant Hill Cemetery, of the Spring Valley Neighborhood, on the east
side of the road from the Stone Schoolhouse) which these people have near the
place of their first settlement and which they keep up in good shape.
...Mr. J. H. Powers, of Chickasaw county tells of an interesting incident that
occurred over in that county before the (Civil) war. One A.J. Felt was
elected a Justice of the Peace and at that time he was a strong Democrat.
He defended the Dred Scott decision at all available times and had little, if
any, felling or sympathy with the colored race. A negro who lived at
Bradford has his watch stolen, and a suit of replevin was commenced before Felt
by the negro to recover the watch. One D.A. Babcock appeared for the
defendant and moved to dismiss the case, on the ground that the defendant was a
negro, and that the supreme court had decided that a negro hand no rights that a
white man was bound to respect. This was one of Felt's favorite arguments
and a sharp home thrust, but as a court he was equal to the occasion, and
turning the attorney said, "Look here, Dave, that may be good politics but Dred
Scott decision or no Dred Scott decisions," this nigger is going to have his
watch." A few years in the army and a short time in southern prisons took
all the sympathy he ever held for the south out of him, and before the close of
the war and for y ears afterward, Andy Felt was one of the most rabid
Republicans in the state.
...While these people were not by any means wealthy, they were all, or nearly
all of them, very industrious, and the county poor house has never been the home
of any of their number and none of them have ever been sent to jail or state
prison so far as we know. Neither have the courts been troubled with
litigation brought about by them. It was supposed by many that after the
negroes of the south that had been held in slavery were freed, that there would
be a general exodus of colored people to the north. But such has not been
the case. The number of colored people in Fayette county has not
perceptibly increased since the close of the (Civil) war. In fact, the
settlement of which we have spoken, has become somewhat scattered and while
there may be as many or even more of them in the county than there were forty
years ago, there is no one settlement that now contains as many as did the
settlement of some forty-five years ago.
...Among those who came at that time were Sion Bass, who was grandfather of the
Sion Bass who now lives near Lima. Thomas and John Graham, the later is
still living, but the former died a short time ago, and had lived since coming
here not far from where he first located. Sandy Bass and Isam Lewis, who
was the father of the Lewis boys, who are not well to do farmers living in
Westfield township, and not far from where their father located. Aunt
Sally Wilson also came with the others and, while not married had a family under
her care. We think non of the people whom we have mentioned were at any
time in their lives slaves, but were free colored people from Ohio and Illinois.
Sion Bass had been engaged before coming here in running boats on the Ohio
river, and was more or less engaged in shipping corn to points away down on the
river from above Cincinnati.
...Mr. (Hiram) Waterbury, of Fayette, became much interested in the education of
these colored people and took great interest in teaching and encouraging the
older ones to learn to read and write. One of them who had been taking a
few lessons and seemed quite hard of learning and dull of understanding at all
at once became quite an expert and ready reader. At first Mr. Waterbury
was disposed to think some marvelous light had broken suddenly in on his colored
pupil, but he soon discovered that he had been imposed upon, and he said:
"Jack (Tann) you have been fooling me. You could read all the time."
These people have not, as a general things, intermarried with the whites, and
there has never been much, if any, trouble with them on that score. They
have not apparently been as long lived as might have been expected. Some
families have become almost extinct. Whether the climate has been too
rigorous, or whether a mixed race of people are not long lived, we are unable to
say. It is not an easy matter to trace the ancestry of a mixed race.
Jack Tann, who was one of those who came in 1853, says, that his grandfather was
a Hindoo (Hindu), and came from Calcutta to Cuba. From Cuba to the United
States, where he married a white woman. However, he says, that his
grandmother was a mixture of white and Indian and she married an Octoroon.
This pedigree may be a little mixed, but if correct it would be difficult to
tell exactly where Jack (Tann) is at, but no matter from whom any of these
people have descended, they have always been loyal Americans and good,
respectable, law abiding citizens.
...In later days there were some additions came from the south, and amount them
were three parties who had been held as slaves. One of them, Samuel
Maxfield, has remained here (Fayette.Co.IA) and is now the owner of a good farm
and is, and has been a good, honest, respectable man. Mr. Thompson was
another but his stay was shorter and we believe he lives near Sioux.Falls.IA.
The Collins family came some time after the Civie War, and one of the daughters
(Susan) is now a well educat ed and highly repsectred young lady, and is one of
the prominent missionaries to Africa..
...No matter how much or little one may like colored people, it now seems
strange that at one time a majority of the people of this country were in favor
of keeping these people in slavery. The idea of the Lewis's, the Masfields,
the Grahams, the Collins or the Stepps being held as slaves by the white race,
now seems extremely repulsive. No only were a large class of our people in
favor of keeping them as slaves, but they were willing and anxious to fight and
to wage a cruel and bitter war in order to hold them as such. But it is
pleasing to know that many, if not most of those who held such sentiments, now
see the error of their formers ideas, and we feel sure that but a very small
fraction of our people would now sanction slavery in any form. By becoming
law abiding citizens, by accumulating property, and by gaining knowledge, the
colored race is gradually working its way into the confidence and respect of
even their ancient enemies. Booker T. Washington is a sample of what
this race may do for themselves and of what they may become if their minds are
trained in the right direction.
...Today in all the country that our hunters traveled over, there is not an acre
of wild or unclaimed land. Nearly every quarter section is a fine well
improved farm, worth from fifty to seventy-five dollars per acre. Osage,
Charles City and Mason City were not even post offices at that time, and today
they each count their inhabitants by the thousand. However (at the
tow former places towns were laid out this same season, 1853, but neither were
then given the same names that they now have. At Mason City nothing was
done until the next year but is is much the largest place at the present time.
New Hampton was then a very wet un-inhabited spot on a large wet prairie.
Scores of other find thriving towns now dot this beautiful land, where at that
time the wolf, deer, elk, and other wild animals held supreme and undisputed
sway. The quietude of the whole country which then made it apparently
lonely and desolate, has for years been broken by the shrill whistle of the
locomotive, as it easily carries to distant markets the abundant productions of
this more than fertile land.
...Had any one in the fifties (1850') made the prediction that within the next
forty years many of the deep, miry sloughs of Fayette, Chickasaw and counties
joining would become as dry and hard as the streets of a city, and that fields
of corn would be growing where the stage coach was stuck in the mud so fast that
six horses could not move it after all the passengers were out; I say, had
anyone predicted that this would so soon be good farm land, he would have been
laughed to scorn, and have been considered a fool or a knave, or else a fit
subject for the insane asylum. But all these things have actually come to
pass for these many years. At that time thee were many slough wells, where
the water could be dipped u p with a bucket, but to get a drop of water in the
same localities now holes are drilled from one hundred to three hundred feet
deep. Tame grass, fertile fields, thousands of domestic animals and many
thousand happy people have taken the place of the wild grass and wild deer, and
while our elk hunter still lives to tell of these wild scenes of those early
days the the days of the elk and of elk hunting in this country are forever
gone.
1910 History of Fayette Co, Iowa, by
Fitch, pages 131-132, "The Negroes"
edited notes, additions, rewritten material and clarifications, bz/8/2006
...Settlement of colored people in Westfield Twp started as early as 1852.
United Brethren Rev. George Watrous likely encouraged their move from the
Kankakee Co. in northern Illinois on the Indiana line, where he had known some
of the families. NOTE, bz/2010: It
was not George Watrous but instead his father David Watrous, U.B. Minister
(1789-1864) who encouraged and would lead 'colored folks' to pioneer farms north
of Fayette and in the Albany/Lima area.
....Other families continued to follow forming a ‘neighborhood’ just north
of the Lima/Albany/Fayette area, which would become known as the ‘Colored Settlement.’
The ‘colored’ families were not pure African blood, but a mixture of various
nationalities to include Caucasian, with African and Portuguese predominating.
Their features to include facial and skin color were more traditional European
than that of African blacks of the American slaves of the time. These families
were industrious, frugal and progressive farmers. They were considered
progressive, law-abiding, with an interest in educational and religious
institutions.
...Most of the families joined the United Brethren teachings of ‘Father Watrous.’
When a school house was built in the ‘Colored Neighborhood,’ a preaching
appointment was established to coincide with the opening of the school, and
continued into the 1900’s. A plat of ground, Pleasant Ridge Cemetery, was
dedicated early for burial purposes. The Stone School house/church just south
and across the road on the other side of the valley from the cemetery was still
standing in 1910.
...As the founders of this colony became established their children continued to
farm in the area. Numerous offspring when on to the higher schooling in Fayette
to include attending Upper Iowa University, with some becoming excellent
teachers.
...It was thought that not many, if any, of these families were slaves at the
time of their movement to Westfield Twp. Some of the more pro-slavery and/or
anti-colored early settlers did not receive with favor the establishing of
colored farms in the area, and tried to dissuade them from staying. The Civil
War and its effects basically changed the early resistance to one of only a
‘minor issue.’ Some enlisted to serve in the Civil War. In the last decades of
the 1800’s they generally were inclined not to intermingle and kept relatively
to themselves, but prospered on their farms, being reliable and trustworthy
citizens of the area.
...Some of the earliest families were: T.R. Bass, Sion Bass, Sandy Bass, Thomas
and John Graham, J.J. Epps, Seymore Wilson (killed digging a well), Benjamin
Anderson, John Jack Tann (said he descended from Hindoo, Am. Indian, Negro
races), Samuel Maxfield, Isam Lewis, Stepp, Collins', Aunt Sally Wilson.
...Many of the early settlers are buried at Pleasant Ridge Cemetery (two miles
north of Fayette of Hwy150). The ‘Colored Settlement’ just north of Albany and
Fayette remained as of 1910 the only Negro or colored people in Fayette County
Fayette County Iowa Settled by Black
Pioneers, Settlement Unique in Iowa
Waterloo Courier article, Sunday, Sept 5, 1971, copied basically intact
as published up to the point the article quotes Fitch’s 1910 History of Fayette,
which is summarized above, on this page.
...Fayette—The cemetery is somewhat derisively called, "The Blackberry Patch."
Shaded by trees, it sits four miles north of Fayette village on the east side of
Hwy 150, a cornfield to the north and gully on the south. Here, the remains of
some of the oldest settlers of Fayette County are buried. Most of them are
Negroes (of mixed blood, mulatto).
...For one of the most unique, and least remembered, Pioneer settlements in Iowa
was the black community of Westfield Twp., in Fayette County. These pioneers
came to the undulating hills of the Volga River valley as early as 1851. The
pro-slavery boys tried to run ‘em out. But they stuck to the hills and valleys
and raised their crops and their children and became successful farmers and
fought in their country’s wars and when they died white folks from the area
attended their funerals.
...Now only a few descendants of the original colony remain in Fayette County,
in Westfield Twp., west (northwest) of the old settlement of Albany, where they
continue to farm seemingly unmolested by the fears and the desperation felt by
many of their brothers in the urban ghettoes. (by the 1971 article, the State’s
Volga Lake Project taken a high percentage of the original ‘Colored Settlement’
farms).
...In 1868 the ‘black’ (mullato) population of Fayette Co. was 70. At its peak
in 1880, the settlement boasted a population of about 120. Black Hawk County in
1880 had a black population of 37. In the 1840 census, Iowa had a total Negro
population of 186, including 16 slaves. Most lived in Dubuque, where they worked
in the lead mines. By 1850, there were 333 blacks in Iowa. Their children were
not allowed to attend public schools with white children. It was the law.
...In 1851, 11 years after the first white settler moved into Westfield Twp.,
Thomas Graham moved to Westfield Twp., where he purchased 123 acres of land.
The area north of the Neutral Ground opened in 1850 for pioneer settlement.
Therefore Thomas Graham and the other early members of the ‘Colored Settlement’
were among the very early pioneers of the Volga flowage of Westfield Twp.)
...One history book says Graham’s father was a Scot and his mother French and
Portuguese. He wore a flowing beard, and was identified as being one of the
earliest settlers of the so-called "Colored Settlement." He cast his first volt
for Zachary Taylor and voted Republican consistently. He served on a U.S.
District Court jury at Dubuque in the 1870s.
...J.J. Epps was another early member of the community. Epps was born in Georgia
in 1820, moved to Indiana in 1837, then to Fayette County in 1853, where he
purchased 108 acres of farmland. Ten of his 14 children survived.
