Pioneer Settlers of Fayette County Claim Earlier Arrivals
T D Peterman argues a county article mistook early settlement dates. He lists Andrew and Reuben Henley in 1844, Ullaney Brooks in 1847, Eason and Voshel brothers around 1848, L Dutton circa 1844, J J Dickinson of Clermont 1840, Judge Rogers 1849, and Mrs. Thomas Barclay born 1835. He notes William Wells born 1840 as potentially the oldest native resident, invites readers to add older names, and underscores long-standing settlement in Iowa.
