From the Clarksville Star, Myron Rowd was born in Ohio Feb. 19, 1841, where all his early life was spent. He had no brothers or sisters, and his parents have long since gone the way of all the earth, so that he leaves no near relatives except those by marriage. About 47 years ago he came to Clarksville, Ia., which has since been his home. He learned the business of a millwright, and in later years, was a contractor and builder. In 1868, he wedded Miss Melinda Pope, second daughter of the late Daniel N. and Polly Pope, who settled in Pleasant Valley, Scott County, Ia., in 1837 on a farm one-fourth mile south of Crow Creek, now owned by James Wilson. Mr. Pope disposed of his farm, and in the fall of 1863, removed with his family to a farm near Clarksville, where he died March 17, 1880. The widow survived him, and with the youngest daughter and family, continued to reside at the homestead near Clarksville. Mr. Rowe will be remembered by many in Princeton as in the spring of 1901, he constructed a modern elevator for J. D. Dennis, which detained him for several weeks. He was accompanied by his wife who passed the weeks pleasantly renewing old acquaintances and visiting her cousins, the Mesdames Sarah J. Wood and Melvina Fanning, also J. K. Pope of Princeton and Geo. W. Pope of Pleasant Valley. The deceased had planned to start for Dakota on Tuesday, June 7. Quad-City Times (Davenport, Iowa); 24 Jun 1910, Fri.
