Mr. Whitaker took up a portion of the land on which the town was laid out. His house was a rendezouis for land seekers. When coming to the county, he possessed the only team of horses there, and journeyed to McGregor and Elkader for flour anf groceries to supply the demands of the settlers. Here John grew to manhood, receiving his education in the pioneer schools. In 1865 he married Martha Fuller, a native of Vermont.

He has 500 acres of splendid land, under a high state of cultivation."
