He dates his birth in Essex county, New York, and is a son of Henry and Emily (Palmer) Draper, both natives of Essex county. His grandfather, Timothy Draper, was of Scotch-Irish descent. Henry Draper emigrated with his family to Scott county, Iowa, in 1859, and located near Le Claire, where his wife died in 1861. He, too, died in Sac county, aged sixty-six years. He was liberal in his religious views, and in politics was a Republican. Mrs. Draper was a Baptist. They had eight children, five sons and three daughters. Three of their sons served in the late war. William H., who was a member of the Twentieth Iowa Infantry, is now a resident of Clinton county Iowa. John, who served in the Sixty-sixth Illinois Infantry, lives in Seattle, Washington. August 22, 1862, Oscar enlisted in the Twentieth Iowa Infantry, and during his service participated in the battles of Prairie Grove, Arkansas and Vicksburg, and was through the siege of Fort Morgan and Fort Blakely, besides being in numerous skirmishes. He was honorably discharged at Mobile, Alabama, July 8, 1865. Returning to Iowa after the war the subject of our sketch located east of De Witt, in Clinton county, where he was engaged in farming until 1874. Since that year he has been identified with the interests of Clinton township, Sac county. Here he purchased 160 acres of land, has improved it with good buildings, etc., and is devoting his time chiefly to stock-raising. He keeps a dairy of about fifteen cows. His residence is a story and a half, and is 18 x 24 feet, and his barn is 48 x 60 feet. A nice grove and orchard of two acres are among other improvements Mr. Draper has placed upon his land. March 12, 1868, he married Sarah J. Bittinger, in Clinton county, Iowa. She was born in Franklin county, Pennsylvania, daughter of John and Rebecca (Kahl) Bittinger.
