55 | Bernhard W. Streeper one of the native farmers of Jones county who has attained a success of no mean proportions in the vocation he has pursued diligently for a number of years in Clay township, was born December 28, 1860. His father, Stephen Russell Streeper, became one of the prominent and well known men of this county, to which he came in the pioneering days. Born in Montgomery county, Pennsylvania, January 14, 1820, he was married there July 1, 1843. to Miss Isabel H. Todd, also a native of that county, born March 17, 1822. Shortly after their union, in 1844, the couple removed to Indiana. where they lived for about sixteen years, coming to Iowa in 1860. Several years before that date in 1854, Mr. Streeper had come to Jones county, where he entered the tract of government land on which his son Bernhard W. now lives. Although the hardships of the first years after he took up his residence here were those which usually fall to the lot of the men who brave the difficulties of pioneer life, yet Mr. Streeper overcame these and made success of his life's work. He was able to give his children the best educational advantages the public schools afforded in those days and became a man highly regarded in his locality. He had learned the trade of a stone-mason in early manhood, and after his sons were of an age to assume some of the responsibilities of the farm, he worked at it to a considerable extent. A republican in his political views, he was elected on its ticket to the positions of township trustee, school director and school treasurer, in which capacities he served for a number of years, always with honor to himself and to the satisfaction of those who had wisely placed confidence in his judgment, honesty and discrimination. In the work of the Presbyterian church he was very active, being a constant attendant upon its services and an elder for a number of years. He died March 11, 1896, leaving eight children, eighteen grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. He and his wife were the parents of eight. Mrs. Hannah M. Johnson, deceased; William, a resident of South Dakota, who first married Miss Jennie Gowing and after her death married Emma Taylor; James M., who wedded Miss Sadie Coder and lives in North Dakota; Stephen P., who married Miss Wealtha Smith and lives in Hancock, Iowa; Arabelia H., who became the wife of Merritt Osborn and makes her home in Minnesota; Robert H., who wedded Miss Etta Coburn, and resides in this county; Bernhard W., the subject of this sketch; and Sheridan Grant, who married Miss Emma Coburn and also lives in this county. Mrs. Streeper died February 10, 1908. Bernhard W. Streeper was reared under the parental roof, entering the public schools, from which he derived his first training in the English branches. Later he spent one year at Onslow and another at Hopkinton, completing his education in the latter place. When he entered upon the serious business of life he chose farming as his vocation and has pursued it ever since. For a number of years he worked in the western part of the state but in 1895 he returned to the old homestead, which he operated during the remaining years of his father's life, caring for him with filial solicitude. After his death he managed the farm for his mother, and finally, April 12, 1908, bought it from the other heirs. It embraces one hundred and sixty acres, and at the time of its purchase, in 1854, Mr. Streeper's father had paid a dollar and a quarter an acre for it. Today it is worth just one hundred times that price, for it has been improved according to the best methods, is a rich and arable tract that makes large returns for the amount of thoughtful labor expended upon it. In addition to his purely agricultural interests, Mr. Streeper handles a large number of cattle and horses, from which he derives a most gratifying income. He has attained a pronounced success; his farm is one of the valuable tracts of Clay township. His prosperity and his good fortune have been obtained solely through his own efforts, through a persistence and industry that cannot fail to derive the very best results from the cultivation of the soil. Mr. Streeper was married November 28, 1900, to Miss Sadie Orr, who was born in Jones county, May 26, 1871, and they now have two children, Mabel and Mildred, twins, born November 27, 1904. Although the record of his life is one that bespeaks the unwearying devotion of Mr. Streeper to his own concerns, he has not been without a large measure of public spirit and generosity, for he has served his township most efficiently during a long period as trustee and as school treasurer. A republican in his political views, he has received the support of the voters of that party when he expressed a willingness to devote some of his time to the interest of his fellow citizens. His religious adherence is given to the Presbyterian faith. From History of Jones County, Iowa, Past and Present, R. M. Corbitt, S. J.

61 | Charles Burton Scroggie ("Chuck") was born on a farm three miles east of Ruthton, MN on January 24, 1917, the third of five children of Perry and Laura Scroggie. The family moved to another farm four miles northeast of Ruthton about 1921. The farm was located in Lincoln County and the mailing address and county seat was in Tyler, MN. Chuck attended a one room country school, grades one through six. This school had one teacher who taught grades one through eight. The family farm was sold in 1929 and the family moved into town (Ruthton). Chuck attended Ruthton elementary school grades seven & eight and Ruthton High School, graduating in June, 1935. His graduating class had 22 students, including four Christensens (two families). In the senior play, Chuck played "Marston Bobbs -- anything but bashful". In the commencement exercises, his sister Blanch was in charge of the processional. The two years following High School, Chuck worked on local farms driving trucks and assisting Perry on the family farm. During the height of the depression, jobs were difficult to find in the rural Midwest and Chuck definitely did not want to be a farmer. When Alvin Christensen was driving to the West Coast to join other members of his family, Chuck decided to go along and seek employment there. On April 1, 1937, he migrated to Santa Barbara, CA and initially took a part time job as a gardener on a local estate. During this time, he stayed with the Christensen family. When a better paying job came available as an orderly at the Santa Barbara County Hospital, he took it. It was during this period when he met his future wife, Edna Mae Norris. In the spring of 1938, Chuck's sister Dorothy was moving to Santa Barbara to begin her nursing career with her room mate at the University of Minnesota's nursing school, Edna Norris. Chuck met them when they arrived by bus from Minnesota. Chuck & Edna were married the following year in Yuma Arizona on Christmas Eve, 1939. Witnesses at the wedding included Edna's sister Betty. In July, 1939 Chuck moved to the Los Angeles area where jobs were available in the blossoming aircraft business. His "Uncle Charlie" lived with his son Gene in Santa Monica where Gene worked for the FAA at the Santa Monica airport (Gene spent his career in aviation after flying combat bi-planes in Eddie Rickenbacker's famous Ninety Forth Aero Pursuit Squadron during WWI). Gene used his contacts to get Chuck several interviews, including Lockheed Aircraft Company in Burbank, CA. After attending the Fletcher school for two months learning sheet metal and riveting skills, he was hired by Lockheed on September 25, 1939, beginning a long career there. Initially, he worked on the Hudson Bomber which they built for England prior to and during WWII. Following their marriage, Chuck and Edna lived in Burbank in a duplex apartment. Also living there were Pete & Margaret Hulse (Margaret later married Chuck's brother Don). While in Burbank, Chuck & Edna's two sons were born, Steven Norris (b. 9/19/1943) and Michael Charles (b. 9/29/1944). The family moved to a house they bought on Matilija Ave. in Van Nuys (about 10 miles away) in 1945. In 1947, Chuck was transferred into the inspection department and worked as a final assembly inspector on the P-80 jet fighter (the first U.S. jet fighter, designed by the famous Lockheed engineer, Kelly Johnson), T-33 trainer and the F-94 fighter final assembly lines. In 1951, the T-33 assembly line moved to the private airport in Van Nuys, CA and Chuck moved with it as a inspector supervisor of final assembly. In October 1952, Chuck & Edna's daughter Jane Edna was born (b. 10/26/1952). In 1954, the T-33 Final assembly moved to Palmdale, CA and Chuck transferred back to Burbank, working on the C-130 transport plane, the P2V2 anti-submarine warfare plane and the Constellation passenger plane. In 1958, Chuck and Edna bought a new house on Mammoth street in Van Nuys, about three miles north of the Matilija house. That year, Chuck was also transferred back to Van Nuys plant, working for the new Lockheed Missile & Space division. In 1964, this plant closed and Chuck was transferred to the Missile & Space plant in Sunnyvale, CA (north of San Jose on the San Francisco Bay pennisula). By this time, Steve (20) and Mike (19) were both in college in Southern California and did not move up north when Chuck, Edna and Janie moved to a house on Allison Way in Sunnyvale in June, 1964. At the Sunnyvale plant, Chuck worked on several space craft programs as Inspector Supervisor. In 1967, he transferred to Inspection Engineering quality assurance on the Polaris submarine missile program. There, he worked on the various Navy submarine missile programs including the successors to the Polaris, the Poseidon and the Trident. On January 31, 1981, Chuck retired from Lockheed after 42 years, and entire family attended his retirement dinner. As of 1997, Chuck & Edna are still living at the Sunnyvale home, not far from Jane, her husband Nick and their grandchildren Sean and Colin who live in Redwood City, CA. Chuck enjoys pitching horseshoes several times a week and listening to or watching San Francisco Giants and Oakland A's baseball games. He also is busy making and fixing things around the house.

88 | Emigrated in 1801 from Ireland. Settled in WA County PA, moving to Columbiana County in 1818. per History of Columbiana County, Ohio and Representative Citizens. The Patterson family came originally from Ireland, Grandfather Thomas Patterson and family emigrating in 1801 and settling first in Washington County, Pennsylvania. In 1818 he removed his family and possessions to Wayne township, Columbiana County, where he entered land and cleared a good farm. In 1823 this land came into the possession of James Patterson who cleared and improved it, and the only deed that has ever been executed for this property is the one first made to Thomas Patterson. WAYNE TOWNSHIP's CHURCHES. Bethel Presbyterian Church was organized in 1821, as a branch of the Yellow Creek congregation of Madison township. Rev. James Robertson had preached as early as 1818 within the bounds of that was afterwards Bethel congregation in Wayne township. He conducted public service twice a month, occupying a tent in summer and holding meetings in winter in the homes of the people. The tent was at the first erected in a field on the place afterward owned by Rev. Robert Hays and later near where William Grafton lived. Andrew Adams,Thomas Patterson, James Welch and Richard Gilson were chosen elders at the organization. Soon after the organization, in 1821, Thomas Patterson gave two acres of land as a site for a church and graveyard, and a hewed-log house of worship was built upon the site occupied up to 1905 by Bethel Church. (assumed to be the Thomas of this biography) On October 22, 1823, by resolution of the presbytery, the Yellow Creek congregation was divided and it was ordered that that portion of the congregation where the new meeting house was built "be known by the name of Bethel congregation, and that Rev. James Robertson be con sidered the pastor of that congregation." Rev.Mr. Robertson was also instrumental in or ganizing the Bethesda Presbyterian congregation, in Franklin township, and until 1827 preached to both that and Bethel congregations. In 1825 the joint membership of the two churches was 202. Previous to that time there had been revivals in both these churches, and there were large accessions to the membership. Wayne Twp was early known as a "dry" township, the temperance sentiment always being strong within its borders. A township temperance society was early organized and about the same time one was formed also in connection with Bethel Presbyterian Church. Page 269, History of Columbiana County (Ensign): In 1821 a church organization was effected as a branch of the Yellow Creek congregation of Madison township. The early church records having been lost, a list of the original members is not obtainable, but it is known that Andrew Adams, Thomas Patterson, James Welch, and Richard Gilson were the ruling elders chosen at the organintion. Directly upon that event, it was of course deemed necessary to have a house of worship, and, Thomas Patterson donating two acres of land for a grave-yard and church site, a double-hewed log house was, by the united efforts of the members of the congregation, erected upon the spot now occupied by Bethel church. Oct. 22, 1821, in response to a petition of the Bethel congregation, tlte Presbytery of Hartford adopted a resolution as follows: Resolved,, That the congregation of Yellow Creek be divided. and that that part of the congregation where the new meeting-house is built be known by the nnmeol' Bethel congregation, nnd that Rev. Jame! Robertson be considered the stated pastor of that congregation." The name of Bethel was originally chosen in honor of a church of that name in the Pittsburgh Presbytery, and Mr. Robertson, who was called. had all along been preaching for the congregation. | PATTERSON, Thomas Sr. (I2328)

91 | Farming has claimed the attention of Joseph W. Orr from his early youth to the present time and he is now operating eighty acres which he purchased in 1895, in addition to carrying on the home farm of one hundred acres, all located in Scotch Grove township. Mr. Orr was born in Clay township, Jones county, April 15, 1864, a son of William and Jemima (Orr) Orr, both natives of the Emerald Isle, whence they came to the new world after reaching mature years. Each located in Connecticut and in that state in 1855 they were united in marriage. In April of that year, about two months subsequent to their marriage, they sought a home in the west, making a location in Jones county. Here the father worked as a farm hand for several years, while for four years he operated rented land. Both he and his wife were economical and industrious and their united efforts eventually brought them the capital that justified the purchase of a farm and Mr. Orr then bought eighty acres of land ready for cultivation and twenty acres of timber land. Locating on his newly acquired tract he continued to carry on farm work till the time of his death, which occurred on the 28th of January, 1888, when he had reached the age of fifty-five years. The mother still survives and yet makes her home on the farm left to her by her husband. Joseph W. Orr was reared at home, acquiring his education in the common schools. He was associated with his father in the farm work until the latter's death, when the son assumed its management and has since carried on the work for his mother. In 1895, Mr. Orr purchased eighty acres of land adjoining the home place and he now has charge of the one hundred and eighty acres, this land lying in Scotch Grove Township. He follows general farming and his excellent knowledge of the best methods of agriculture are bringing to him gratifying results. Mr. Orr was married on the 24th of August, 1887, to Miss Ella J. Lee, of Clay township, a daughter of James F. Lee, who came when a boy with his parents to Jones county from Dubuque county, this state. Unto Mr. and Mrs. Orr have been born seven children, but two of the number are deceased. Those who survive are: Vera J., who is a student in Lenox College at Hopkinton, Iowa; and William L., Ruth N., John Harold and Ralph J., all still under the parental roof. Mr. Orr is a democrat in his political views and affiliations and keeps well informed on the current events of the day. He and his wife are members of the Presbyterian Church, while his fraternal relations connect him with Onslow Lodge, NO. 398, I.0.0.F. and Onslow Camp, No. 2120, M.W.A. Mr. Orr is one of the substantial and influential men of Scotch Grove township, where his entire life has been spent and his record will therefore prove of interest to our readers.
