From: "Standard Historical Atlas of Jasper County, Iowa," The Huebenger Survey and Map Publishing Co., Davenport, Iowa, 1901. Page 19. Biographical Sketches Loupee, George George Loupee, located on Section 5, Kellogg Township, has been a resident of Jasper County since the fall of 1860. He was born in Germany March 15, 1826; came to America in 1830 with his parents, located near Lebanon, Pennsylvania; later moved to Wayne County, Ohio. He is the son of George and Minnie (Steiner) Loupee, natives of Germany. His father was a weaver by trade, which he always followed in the old country. The family removed from Ohio to Michigan, the father dying nine months after their arrival. George left Michigan in July 1856, and located in Hancock County, Iowa, before that County was organized, remaining there until coming to Jasper County in 1860, and finding himself too poor to improve a farm in this section, he returned to Michigan, and again came to Jasper County in 1870, and has been a permanent resident since that date. Our subject has been twice married. Julia Philo became his wife in 1852. Two sons and four daughters were born to them, all of whom are living. His first wife died in February 1875. December 8, of that year, he married Henrietta Ruark, a native of Illinois, who had come to Jasper County with her parents in 1863. Four sons and two daughters blessed this union, all of whom reside in Jasper County. Our subject has had his share of hard times and pioneer life. When he first came to the Hawkeye State in 1856, he experienced one of the hardest winters ever known. The snow was so deep, and the mill and markets so far from his residence that for six weeks the family ground all the wheat they used in a coffee mill, and from which they made bread, the same in name but not in quality of the whole wheat bread of today."
