READ MORE FAMILY HISTORY AT; Mrs.Melvina Pope Fanning Biography From "Vol. 2 History of Davenport and Scott County" by Harry E. Downer-S. J. Clarke Publishing Co. 1910 Chicago. Isaac Tracy Pope, a lineal descendant and father of Mrs. Fanning, was born in Oswego county, New York, August 13, 1811, a son of Squire S. and Sallie (Angle) Pope, who came west in 1835 and settled in Quincy, Illinois. Isaac Tracy Pope received a common-school education in the east, married there and in 1840 came to Linn county, Iowa, where he secured a tract of government land, upon which he built a log cabin, and there lived until 1854. Being in limited circumstances he and his wife had to endure many hardships attendant upon the primitive state of the country and the strain of poverty. However, he was energetic and ambitious and in the course of years his labors brought him a generous competence. In 1854 he removed from Linn county to Scott county, where he engaged in farming until his death, which occurred March 17, 1863. His wife survived him more than twenty years. She was Miss MARY A RATHBURN in her maidenhood and a daughter of Washington and Eunice Rathburn. Born in Oswego county, New York, March 15, 1814, she there grew to young womanhood and was married to Mr. Pope, January 28, 1834. She endured the hardships of pioneer life in Iowa in the early years of her wedded life, and when the Scott County Pioneer Society was organized became one of its honored members. Hers was a life of courage and devotion to her family, and she was deeply mourned when, on the 30th of December, 1886, she was called to her final rest. The last fourteen years of her life were passed in the home of her daughter, Mrs. MELVINA/ JOHN FANNING. Nine children were born to her and her husband, as follows: Sarah, who became the wife of James Wood, of Princeton; William H., who wedded Miss Mary Allen and is now deceased; Melvina, who is now living at Princeton; George W., who wedded Miss Anna Maria Van Epps and is now a resident of Pleasant Valley township; and four who died in infancy. WILLIAM H POPE was born October 12, 1840, and was a young man of twenty-one when, on the 14th of October, 1861, he enlisted in the Second Iowa Calvary under Colonel Egbert. He saw considerable active service during the Civil war and was discharged October 4, 1864.
