Did you know that James J. was written up in The History of Polk County, 1880, page 914

Fredregill, J. J. -----Farmer, section 5, PO East Des Moines. Was born in Bedford County Pennsylvania, October 22, 1824, and when four years of age removed to Crawford county, Ohio. He received a common school eduction, and when about twenty-five years of age was married to Miss Nancy Deachtal, a native of Wayne county, Ohio. They lived there until the 19th of October, 1854, when they started for this county by wagon and were twenty-four days on the road. They are the parents of thirteen children, eleven of whom are now living in this township. One son, John W., now lives on the farm with his father. Mr. Fredregill's father, who lives in Sabina county, Missouri, was born in France and is eighty-nine years of age. His mother was born in Germany, and is eighty-four years of age. He owns forty-nine acres of land. Has held all the township offices in the township.


Obviously there are some problems, such as where his parents were born, the county in Missouri they resided in (Saline/Sabina), they spelling of Nancy's maiden name. But it's still interesting.
