Received a lot of copied records from the Genealogy Society of Iowa. Included, was the History of Benton County, Iowa. It was written in 1878. It stated that Elias Doan arrived from his native county of Washington, in Indiana, to become a founding father of Benton County, Iowa, on 24 June 1850. He made the journey by team and was 3 weeks on the trip.Big Grove Twp, known by the surveyors as town 84, range 11 west, was organized in 1856, by order of the county court. It's first trustee's were Elias Doan, John Ruffcorn and George Bergen; and James Schultz and H.S. Bailey were the first justices of the peace. James F. and Robert Young were the first settlers of the township in 1849. They afterward moved to Vinton, and their sketches appear in connection with the history of the county seat.
In 1853, a 20 year old, named Joseph Garriher, located from Pennsylvania to Benton County. He introduced 27 head of horses, the first ever brought there, for the purpose of feeding and raising them. He became quite a stockman in the county. A few years later, he brought out of Missouri, the first steers that were ever fed there.
One of the stories that Mr. Doan told, illustrating the thin settlement of the country in 1850, was that in making his trip to Cedar Rapids for family provisions, he was able to make the journey without striking a fence.
In 1854, they moved a log cabin onto another part of the sections. It had been used by "Scalawags", who used to steal from the settlers and blame it on the Indians. It was then used for the first school house, taught by Miss Margaret Connolly, during the summer of 1854. The first sermon was preached at the house of J.F. Young, by Rev. William Jones, a Presbyterian, in 1850.
Elias's will, which was drawn up a few days before his death, includes Amy O. as his daughter, although it was well known in the family, that Amy was the offspring of Albin Doan and Sarah Elizabeth Lambert. We have the documents of inheritance to Amy.
