From the 1915 History of Harrison Co., IA: "An industrious son of Denmark, James Peterson was born on June 12, 1835, the son of Peter J. and Inger (Anderson) Peterson, who were also natives of Denmark, and are now deceased. James Peterson left Denmark in 1862, coming to America and settling first in Wisconsin, working for a Wisconsin farmer for a short time. He removed to Harrison county, Iowa, in 1864 and for two years he worked by the month, as a farm hand, after which, for a few years, was proprietor of a threshing outfit. Eventually, he bought forty acres of land in Jefferson township, and gradually added to his original purchase until he was the owner of two hundred and sixty acres of well-improved land. Among the improvements he placed on this land was the setting out of a grove of fine trees at the hands of Mr. Peterson, Sr. He retired from active farm life in 1914, although still making his home on the farm. James first married in 1872 Laura Martin, who was born in Illinois, in 1850, and died in 1880. Mr. Peterson's second marriage occurred in 1881, when he married Almira Norman, who was born in Illinois in 1859. To this second union were born eleven children, Claud, William, Elmer, Ara, Mrs. Emma Grosman, Roy, Mrs. Clara Clark, Ray, Mrs. Mary Sillau, Florence, and Ruth."
