ONE OF CITY'S FIRST SETTLERS, PASSES AWAY LANDLORD OF ONE OF TOWN’S FIRST HOTELS Conducted Hotel in Early Day at Corner of Main and Center Streets. Also in What is Now Tremont Block —Was Brother of Henry Anson, "Father of Marshalltown"—Sketch of Career. Death at 10:10 o'clock Sunday night, claimed Alva Anson, one of the very early pioneers of Marshalltown, and brother of the late Henry Anson, known as “the father of Marshalltown." Mr. Anson’s death occurred at the state hospital at Independence, and was due to an attack of hemorrhages of the bowels, with which he was stricken Friday night. Mr. Anson had been a patient in the Hospital two weeks, his condition being due to his advanced years. Alva Anson was one of the real pioneers of Marshalltown. There were members of his own family who preceded him here, but there are few people here now who were residents of the county when Mr. Anson decided to cast his lot with Marshalltown. Ran One of First Hotels. Mr. Anson was one of the first hotel landlords in the village of Marshalltown. His first venture was upstairs in the building at the northwest corner of Main and Center streets, where the hardware store of Abbott & Son now stands. Later he ran a hotel in what is now the Tremont block. Lived Here Since 1855. Mr. Anson was a native of Canandaigua, N. Y . where he was born June 11, 1822. He was the eldest son of Warren and Elizabeth Anson, who moved from York state to Erie county, Ohio, in 1833. Being attracted to the new country in Iowa, by reason of the fact that his two brothers, Henry and Horace, were here, Alva Anson came to Marshalltown in 1853, purchased land, and then went back to Ohio and returned with his family to make this his home in 1855. After his hotel ventures Mr. Anson moved to his farm, just west of the present city limits, adjoining the old Governor Packard farm on the east. Here he lived for several years. For many years past Mr. Anson has made his home in this city, and has devoted his time to looking after local investments. He owned the brick building on North First street, which contains four store rooms, numbered 11 to 17. Mr. Anson also owned a small tract of timber land near Marietta. Mr. Anson is survived by six sons and two daughters. The children are Monroe. Clarence and Miss Independence Anson, of this city; Warren Anson, living three miles west of town; Elgin Anson, of Marietta; Charles Anson, of Maxwell; Bert Anson, who lives in the state of Washington; and Mrs. Jennie Hyerstay, of Denver. Mr. Anson is also survived by one brother and two sisters, Horace Anson, of this city; Mrs. Emma Haviland, of Lake Helen, Fla.; and Mrs. Elmira Walters, of Thermopolis, Wyo. It is expected that Mr. Anson's body will reach the city from Independence at 6:30 this evening. Miss Anson and Mr. Elgin Anson, who left for Independence Saturday afternoon upon receipt of word telling of Mr. Anson's serious illness, will accompany the body.
