Blacks town Buxton shaped by early 20th century mining era
The Buxton settlement near the Monroe Mahaska county line emerged around the turn of the century as a predominantly black community known as the black man's utopia in Iowa. Notable resident George H. Woodson advanced Black legal progress, becoming Mahaska County Bar vice president and a candidate for county attorney, later founding the Iowa Negro Bar Association and helping launch the National Negro Bar Association based in Des Moines. Today the National Bar Association operates in Washington, D.C., with a membership over 14,000 attorneys, judges, and students.
