of  Brush Creek, Fayette County, Iowa

....Zachariah Thompson and Priscilla Albaugh came to Brush Creek or Arlington, Fayette County, Iowa, in 1865, following the lead of sons Samuel and Morris J.  who pioneered in the Taylorville/Brush Creek area in 1854. Sons William and Alex would soon remove to Fayette County .   The Thompson's were a true pioneer family in the southeast corner and central part of Fayette County, Iowa, in the early 1850's,  and in Harrison/Carroll County, Ohio in the 1820's.  All of  the other Thompson children would migrate to Fayette County, Iowa, and many descendents would move as pioneer farmers to the west as land opened up in the 1870's through the 1890's.
 ..... Priscilla Albaugh (1805-1879) would meet and marry Zachariah C. Thompson (1796-1880) on January 15, 1822, in New Rumley Twp., Harrison Co., Ohio. The Thompson's were of Scottish background, having immigrated to American as part of the Scotch-Irish movement in the early 1700's. The Thompson Story will be told on another page.  Zach Thompson had migrated at the age of 21 from Maryland to Harrison Co., Ohio, in 1817.  Zach and Priscilla would farm and have ten children in Harrison Co., Ohio. In 1854, two of their children Samuel and Morris Jackson Thompson would migrate and be very early settlers near Taylorsville, three miles to the N,NW of Brush Creek (later Arlington), Iowa.   Brush Creek however, would soon become the dominate village in the area for the Thompson Clan.  Other children would also migrate to Brush Creek with their siblings. 
.... Samuel (my gggrandfather) would die on the way back to Ohio in 1865, perhaps to get the parents, and be buried in Allen Cemetery in Harrison Co. Thus in 1865, Zach C, age 69, and Priscilla, age 60, would buy 120 acres of a government tract on the very southern edge of the tiny pioneer village of Brush Creek (the history of Brush Creek/Arlington is on other pages} and farm their until their deaths fifteen years later. The farm land was tall and wet grass prairie, located to the SE of the Six Corner Intersection at the south edge of Brush Creek. The old Mission Trail from Dubuque to Ft. Atkinson ran on the western edge of their land. Son Morris J. was farming two miles to the west of Brush Creek.  Son Samuel had been farming in the Grannis Canyon area six miles to the north, and apparently ( my gggrandmother) Samuel's wife Martha Sherman Thompson, with six children (ages 1-10) were still on that farm when Zach and Priscilla arrived from Ohio, in 1865. At least some of Samuel's and Martha's children were taken in by Morris J.  Martha would go on the marry John Little, a Brush Creek farmer and cooper a couple of miles NW of town.
.... Thus the Thompson/Albuagh Clan connection to Taylorsville, Brush Creek/Arlington, Fayette County, Iowa, began in 1854, with the migration of the sons, and of Zach Caleb I and Priscilla Albaugh Thompson in 1865, and the migration of several other children. Zach and Priscilla, Morris J. Eli, and William. are buried in Groat Cemetery, Arlington, Iowa, along with their spouses and some grandchildren.   Many of the grandchildren of Zach and Priscilla continued the pioneer migration to the west, during the last decades of the 1800's. The Clans were true American Pioneers.

He married Mary Ann Heidy 1832 in Harrison Co., Ohio, daughter of John Heidy and Sarah Sterlings. She was born March 20, 1809 in Virginia, and died May 09, 1851 in Carroll Co, Ohio.

Notes for Caleb J. Sherman:

Caleb Sherman, Mary Ann's second husband, grandson of Caleb and Rebecca

(Rider) Sherman, had migrated in 1829 or 1830 to the Harrison-Carroll county

region from Salisbury Parish, Westmoreland County, New Brunswick--at that

time sometimes called British

America. Others had migrated from New Brunswick at about that same time.

The Beck family had done so. Caleb Sherman had two first cousins who had

married Becks. The Sherman's were not newcomers to the American continent.

They descended from early settlers at the Plymouth colony in Massachusetts.

They had gone to New Brunswick in 1764. On the same day that Mary Ann and

Caleb were married, April 10, 1832, Mary Ann's sister Jane Heidy and James

Rider were married by the same justice of the peace. Perhaps James Rider

had also come from New Brunswick.

When Caleb died in 1842, their triplets were still quite young. We do not

know for certain whether the triplets were born November 4, 1840, or

November 4, 1841. One of the triplets died in childhood and is buried at

Allen Cemetery. The stone gives his age as 7 and the year of death 1848.

This suggests 1841 as the birth year. Mary, the mother, still lived in

1848, but, of course, the stone could have been placed at the grave after

her death. The family name on the stone is spelled Shearman. The death

certificate for Samuel W. Sherman in 1916 listed his birth date as November

8, 1840. The death certificate for Uriah McCoy Sherman has November 8,

1840, as his birth date, but it also has his name as McCoy E. Sherman.

Neither a tombstone date nor death certificates are absolutely reliable.

Another tradition preserved the exact times of the births of the triplets on

November 8, 1841. Perhaps that record deserves credence.

Carroll County, Ohio, Probate Record Book A, page 292, has the following

will of Caleb Sherman:

Notes for Mary Ann Heidy:

First Marriage to John Faulkner, August 22, 1825, was performed by Morris Albaugh, J.P who's daughter Priscilla would marry Zach C. Thompson. Their son Samuel Thompson would marry Marth Sherman, daughter from Mary's second marriage to Caleb Sherman. Thus the Ohio connection was interwoven with relationships at the families settled into Iowa and Missouri.

Soon after Mary Ann's birth, the Heidy family moved from Virginia to

Fayette County, Pennsylvania. Later they moved on to a location in old

North Township, Harrison County, Ohio, probably in an area now a part of

Carroll County in the vicinity of Kilgore.

Mary Ann's first husband, George Faulkner, perhaps was a son of the John

Faulkner who had a large farm on Irish Creek south of where Kilgore now is

[State Land Office records, Auditor State of Ohio]. After George's early

death, Mary Ann returned with

her two small children to the home of her parents. This is an inference

from the 1830 census data for household of John Heidy, Sr.

Caleb Sherman, Mary Ann's second husband, grandson of Caleb and Rebecca

(Rider) Sherman, had migrated in 1829 or 1830 to the Harrison-Carroll county

region from Salisbury Parish, Westmoreland County, New Brunswick--at that

time sometimes called British

America. Others had migrated from New Brunswick at about that same time.

The Beck family had done so. Caleb Sherman had two first cousins who had

married Becks. The Sherman s were not newcomers to the American continent.

They descended from early settlers at the Plymouth colony in Massachusetts.

They had gone to New Brunswick in 1764. On the same day that Mary Ann and

Caleb were married, April 10, 1832, Mary Ann's sister Jane Heidy and James

Rider were married by the same justice of the peace. Perhaps James Rider

had also come from New Brunswick.

Thompson, Samuel I. From the Historical Collections of Harrison

County, Ohio, Page 172-3: Looking backward many years we find

brother Morris conning his lessons in a log schoolhouse that is furnished with slab

seats, a huge fireplace in one end and desks along the wall, he only

attended in the winter season and then was frequently absent on account

of the work upon the farm requiring his services. he was early inured to

hard work and at the age of seventeen began to learn the blacksmith's

trade which he followed until twenty-five years of age when he came to

Iowa. He made the trip with his brother Samuel, and the journey was

accomplished by means of the railroad, the lakes, the Mississippi, and

ox-teams which bore them to their destination. He purchased one hundred

and twenty acres of land a short distance east of Taylorville at $3 per

acre which exhausted his capital. Here he endured many hardships and

privations such as fall to the lot of a pioneer and did much hard work.

He was forced to go bare-footed some of the time and often worked out of

doors in cold weather without shelter, shooing oxen. He and his brother

walked five miles to cut logs for their house, eating frozen dinners in

the woods and when the cabin was built lived in it from April to

Christmas without a window. Morris I Jackson Thompson and

Samuel I Andrew Thompson came to Fayette county in the

fall of 1854, and having lived for seven years upon one farm purchased

his homestead in 1861. The land was wild and unimproved but he at once

began its development and now has two hundred and forty acres under a

high state of cultivation, furnished with the necessary buildings and in

connection with this he has enough to keep him in his declining years in

peace and plenty. Beside farming, Morris engaged in blacksmithing for thirty

years. Mr. and Mrs. Thompson [were] members of the Christian Church of

Brush Creek, with which he has been connected for twenty-eight years,

some of that time as Elder. He has done much for its upbuilding, labored

untiringly for its interests and given liberally for its support. A

Christian life has won him many friends who respect him for his many

excellencies of character, As a pioneer settler of the county he has

been identified with its history, has seen its growth and progress and

watched its development. Morris used to haul wheat forty miles with an

ox-team to the Mississippi River and then receive only forty cents per

bushel, but now has a market almost at his door. In political sentiments

he is a Republican, having supported that party since casting his first

vote for J. C. Fremont.
