I just returned from a trip to Poweshiek County where I was taking notes from an old scrapbook.I found the obit for Harry A. Sherwood, brother of Charles Sherwood.From the obit - Harry, son of Stephen & Josephine Sherwood b. 15 Aug 1874 Deep River, Iowa.Md. 21 Aug 1901 Myrtle Fisher.Had sisters, Jessie Sweana & Gertie Bramley (Albany, OR), Lottie Fahrney (Pasadena, CA) and Myrtle Faust (Miami, FL).The sad thing about this scrap book is that whoever made it didn't write the year on the scrap of newspaper, so I don't know when he died.I'm looking for info on Stephen Sherwood (b. 1804) md Pheobe Ostrom - her nephew founded a town in Poweshiek County.
