H. McKenney Joseph L. DEFOREST and his wife Mary COLMS DEFOREST came from North Pigeon, Pottawattamie County, in 1854, to Harris Grove. They lived first in one of the cabins and then the another. Mr. DEFOREST went by the nickname "North Pigeon Joe” for a number of years, having composed a song called "North Pigeon Joe” which he often sang to the great delight of his listeners, also the merchants of Kanesville. Having no team he worked at odd jobs for the early settlers and in the wintertime taught a night writing school. Moving to Magnolia in the early sixties, he became Deputy Clerk under Capt. Wm M. HILL, and had something to do with the arrest and imprisonment of that amiable and respected citizen which occurred during the Civil war. Mr. DEFOREST was also Deputy Recorder. He was a man if much great force and energy, walking much, even with his handicap of one limb shorter than the other, and for some time carried the U.S. mail from Magnolia through Harris Grove, Jeddo, Whitesboro, and back to Magnolia, afoot, prior to the coming of the railroad.
