1880Jun04BrushCreek, The Fairfield Cemetery Association is not a failure, but
then it lags. There seems to be nothing that men are so slow to do as to
prepare for death when living and in good health. It is a fact that the people
of Brush Creek and vicinity must have some place to bury their dead or let them
go unburied. The old grave-yard on the hill is about full (Brush Creek Cem or
later Groat) with the exception of that part of the ground that is so wet that
no on wants to bury in it. A partial contract had been made with the Oakley
Brothers for a very handsome cemetery ground, but a failure to get the amount of
money subscribed to pay for it delayed the project. When the heads of families
are so unfortunate as to have dead to bury they will wonder why the people have
been so slow to make the necessary arrangements for the internment of the dead.
There is no one thing that bespeaks fine culture more than a tasty and well
arranged burying ground.

James Carnall
Page 382 - 1891 Portrait & Biographical Album of Fayette Co. Iowa
..."James Carnall, who resides on section 30, Fairfield Township, is a retired
farmer and well known citizen of Fayette County. He was born December 23, 1824,
in Lincolnshire, England at Swernshead, and is one of six children born unto
John and Ann (Sumpter) Carnall. The former was born in the same parish as our
subject, and grew up on his father's farm. The grandfather was a wealthy man,
being worth about $75,000 and according to the English law of primogeniture his
estate fell to his eldest son, while John, the younger son received only a small
farm of forty acres, upon which he lived and died. There were also three
daughters in the family. John Carnall died about 1864, at the age of
seventy-two, and his wife, who survived him ten years, was eighty-three years of
age at her death. Only two of their children are now living, and but two came to
America. The eldest daughter now lives in Yorkshire, England, at the town of
Whitby.
...Our subject was the thirteenth child, and in the usual manner of farmer lads
the days of his boyhood and youth were spent. At the age of twenty he left home
and went to Liverpool, where he drove a cab for two years, being in the employ
of his brothers who kept a stable in that city. In 1846 he went to London and
entered the employ of a railroad company as porter. His residence in the world's
metropolis covered the years between 1846 and January, 1849, and during that
period he was married to Caroline Nicholson, the wedding ceremony being
performed in St. Andrew Church on South Conduit Street, on the 15th of July,
1849. Mrs. Carnall was born in the suburbs of London at Chapel Hill. During her
childhood she lost her mother, and her father coming to America, she was left
with relatives who reared her.
...On the 2d of February, 1851, Mr. and Mrs. Carnall boarded an ocean vessel at
Liverpool, and at length landed at New York City, whence they proceeded to St.
Thomas, Upper Canada, where he bought one hundred acres of land in good farming
country. Five children were born unto them while residing there, and the family
circle was increased by the birth of three children after their removal to this
county in 1861. Mr. Carnall purchased his present homestead, consisting of one
hundred and sixty acres of farm land and twenty of timber for $1,100. At that
time the land was partly improved but it has been brought to its present state
of perfection through the untiring industry and energy of the owner. A
comfortable residence is surrounded by fine shade and ornamental trees of his
own planting, and in this farm we see one of the best homes in the county. Mr.
Carnall is now living a retired life, his youngest son operating the farm. He
came to this country a poor man, but by economy, industry and good business
management, and the assistance of his worthy wife, he has gained a comfortable
competence which enables him to lay aside all care and spend his remaining years
in the enjoyment of the fruits of former toil. Besides his farm property he
built and is the owner of a fine brick store in Brush Creek.
...The children
of Mr. and Mrs. Carnall are Drusilla, wife of J. A. Thompson, a leading
merchant of Brush Creek; John, who married Flora
Hartman, and is now a farmer in Winnebago County, Iowa;
Salome, wife of Neal McEwen, of Bright,
Hancock County; James, who married Agnes Manson, of Brush Creek, and is now
engaged in farming in Hopper County, Kan.; Frank, who resides in Kingman County,
Kan., and there married Alice Hawley; Caroline, who was born in the schoolhouse
near the homestead, where the family resided six weeks on their arrival in this
county, is now the wife of Alfred Amos, of Custer County, Neb.; Thomas N.
married Alice Duffy, of Waucoma, and is now agent for the railroad at Newhall,
Benton County, Iowa; and Charles who manages the home farm. He married Mattie
Derflinger, of Scott Township. Two other children died in infancy. Those who
grew to mature years were liberally educated, having attended the public
schools, and the Upper Iowa University of Fayette. Mr. Carnall is a
well-informed man, who by reading and observation keeps himself posted on all
the questions of the day. He has served on the Board of Trustees of the township
for three years, and is a Republican in politics, but when he knows the
candidates personally, uses his judgment in voting for the parties. While in
England he was a member of the Ancient Order of Foresters, but is now connected
with no civic society. His wife and five children are members of the Christian
Church of Brush Creek, which he also attends, giving liberally to its support.
No family in Fayette County is held in higher esteem than that of Mr. Carnall,
who is regarded by his fellow townsmen as a man of sterling worth."
Almon Rawson
Page 294 - 1891 Portrait & Biographical Album of Fayette County Iowa
...Almon Rawson, proprietor of the Brush Creek Bank, has been an active business
man of Fayette County for nearly thirty years. He was born in Madison, Lake
County, Ohio, June 12, 1842, and his paternal ancestors were among the sturdy
Englishmen who first came to America to make a home. The founder of the family
in the new world, Edward Rawson, was born in Gillingham, Dorsetshire, England,
April 16, 1615. Having married Miss Rachel Perne, he emigrated to this country
in 1636 and settled in the town of Newbury, in the Massachusetts Bay Colony. He
was a man of superior ability and great force of character and as a result took
a prominent part in the affairs of the colony. In 1647 and 1648, he represented
Newbury in the General Council and was the recipient of a grant of five hundred
acres of land from the Government, for services rendered the commonwealth. He
was appointed Secretary of the Colony of Massachusetts Bay, and annually chosen
thereto for thirty-five years until the government was turned over to Sir Edmund
Andres. Acting in that capacity he signed the warrants issued and sent by
Charles II of England to America for the arrest of regicides. He was the author
of several books and in religious faith was a Presbyterian of the strictest
sect. His death occurred August 27, 1693, as shown by the record in the family
Bible, which though more than two hundred years old, is still in possession of
his descendants. His posterity have greatly increased in numbers, as may be
surmised from the fact that his son William was the father of twenty children.
Able lawyers, skillful physicians, prominent legislators and renowned military
men are numbered among the descendants of that sturdy English pioneer. Harvard
College has graduated a goodly number of them and in the struggle for
independence and the War of 1812, they fought for American liberty.
...The grandfather of our subject, Grindell Rawson, emigrated from Oneida
County, N. Y., to Lake County, Ohio, in 1816, settled in the woods and developed
a farm on which he lived till his death in 1872. His son, Joseph T., the father
of Almon Rawson, was born in Oneida County, in 1814, and was therefore but two
years old when they emigrated to Ohio. In Lake County he was joined in wedlock
with Mary D. Genung, a native of Yates County, N. Y., born in 1817. In 1861,
they became residents of this county, locating in Taylorville, where Mr. Rawson
passed away in 1874. His wife lives with her only son, the subject of this
sketch. Politically, he was a Whig and Republican, but never sought the honors
or emoluments of public office. Religiously he was of the Baptist faith, as is
also his wife. Of their four children but two survive: Almon and Mrs. Emma D.
Rice of Chicago. The former is the eldest of the family. He was nineteen years
of age at the time his parents came to this county, and with his father he
worked on the farm until his death, at which time they owned four hundred and
sixty acres of land.
...On the 5th of June, 1871, Mr. Rawson led to the marriage altar Miss Maggie L.
McEwen, a native of Canada, born July 18, 1846. Her parents emigrated from
Scotland to that country where her mother died, but her father spent his last
days in this county. Unto Mr. and Mrs. Rawson have been born five children:
Joseph T., who died at the age of thirteen months; Ralph N., Emma J., Clark A.
and Adrian L. Mr. Rawson and his wife are leading members in the Methodist
Episcopal Church of Brush Creek, with which she has been connected since its
organization. He takes a laudable interest in the improvement of educational
institutions and for thirteen years he served as Treasurer of the School Board,
a position which he still fills. In politics he is a Republican, having
supported that party since 1864, when he cast his first vote for President
Lincoln. He is also a charter member of the Knights of Pythias lodge of Brush
Creek. The office of Mayer he acceptably filled and the county numbers him among
its most valued citizens.
...Having farmed until 1876, Mr. Rawson removed to Brush Creek and with his
brother-in-law, G. E. Rice, started the Brush Creek Bank, which they carried on
together for ten years, when he purchased his partner's interest is now sole
proprietor. He also has a large horse ranch on which he keeps thoroughbred
Clydesdales and other high grades of horses, having about sixty in all. He has
made several importations. In former years, in company with Mr. Rice, he dealt
extensively in cattle, one deal with Hiram Sweet amounting to $14,300, and
another in Montana to $18,500. He was one of the organizers of the bank at West
Union and was a member of its first board of directors, and in the Brush Creek
Creamery Company with which he is connected he holds the position of treasurer.
It will thus be seen that while Mr. Rawson has extensive business interests of
his own, he is liberal in assisting in any worthy cause, both with time and
means. He is accounted one of the affluent men of this part of the county and
with the exception of about $1,000 which he inherited, his possessions are the
just reward for his energy and business tact."
