Great changes have been made in the county since then, the work of civilization and progress has been carried on, the wild, uncultivated prairies have been transformed into beautiful farms, cities and villages have sprung up, churches and schools have been built, railroads cross and re-cross the country, large manufactories have been established, until Des Moines County ranks among the first in the great State of Iowa. Mr. Bolick is a native of Putnam County, Ind., born April 2, 1830. His parents, David and Rachel (Simmons) Bolick, were natives of Lincoln County, N. C., the former born in 1788, the latter in 1794. The family emigrated to Des Moines County in 1836, where David Bolick, Sr., purchased a claim upon part of which land our subject now resides. The work of cultivation was commenced, crops were planted, and trees set our until the farm became one of the best in the township. In 1854 the family was called upon to mourn the loss of a wife and mother, who that year was called to her last rest. The father survived her many years, his death occurring in 1870. Mr. Bolick was a man who gave largely of his time and money for the up-building and advancement of the community in which he resided. Though reserved, he was upright, straightforward and of kindly disposition, receiving the confidence and esteem of all. Both Mr. and Mrs. Bolick were members of the English Lutheran Church. They were the parents of ten children, all of whom, with the exception of Peter, who died in Putnam County, Ind., came to Iowa in 1836, namely: Agaline, widow of John Jones, resides in Flint River Township; Amos died in May, 1880, and was buried in the cemetery belonging to the homestead; Mahala, wife of A. C. Crouch, a farmer of Whiteside County, Ill.; Macilla, widow of Daniel Cain, resides in Monroe County, Iowa; Catharine became the wife of Elijah Judd, and both are now deceased; Caleb A., who is engaged in farming on part of the old home place; David; Rachel, wife of Henry Judd, a farmer of Lucas County, Iowa; Lydia, who wedded George Lore, a resident farmer of Franklin County, Neb. Almost the entire life of our subject has been spent in Des Moines County, he having become a resident when six years of age. Here he received his education, and was reared upon a farm, and there remained until the death of his mother. In 1865, he was united in marriage with Miss Mary Banning, a native of Henry County, and after that event, the father lived with his son until his death. In April, 1867, the young wife was called to her final home, and Mr. Bolick formed a second union with Miss Mary Depperman, who was born in Prussia in 1848, and is a daughter of John F. and Mary Depperman, who were also natives of that country, and who came to America about the year 1852, and yet reside in Franklin Township, this county. Five children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Bolick: Charles A. and Ambrose S., both died in infancy; David was born May 16, 1873; Nellie, born May 22, 1877; and Morris E., born May 30, 1880. Mr. Bolick is the owner of 125 acres of land in Flint River Township, which is a part of the old homestead settled by his father in 1836. But one old apple tree now marks the spot where stood the log cabin into which the family moved, and where so many happy hours were passed. A handsome two-story frame building was erected in its place in 1861. The uncultivated land of a half-century ago, from which the brush was cleared with an ax and grub-hoe, is now a finely-improved farm. In 1880 a large barn was erected, and all buildings necessary on a well cultivated farm may here be found, together with a good grade of stock. Mr. Bolick is a member of the English Lutheran Church of Burlington, and his wife of the Baptist Church, of Danville. In his political views, he is liberal, voting not for party, bur for the person whom he thinks will best work for the interests of the people. The temperance cause finds in him a ready supporter, and in social, religious and educational advancement, he stands in the front rank.
