Turneaure recalls Bremer county life and 1850s trek to Waterloo
Nearly 70 years after first visiting Waterloo, Charles S Turneaure recounts Bremer county settlement details. He traveled via ox team, later by trolley, noting early Polk township land entry in 1849, migration from Pennsylvania, and life around Waverly. He recalls deer, wolves, and a bear kill in 1857, plus hardships of winter and famine. He served in the 14th Iowa, and lives alone near Horton with one surviving comrade from his unit.
