| Notes |
Howard Taft Wyatt, 191 1 - 1991, (Born in Monona Co., IA) left school in his early teens to help on his father's farm and in his hay making business. He became well known in the region for his skill at hand picking corn. Soon after marrying in 1933, he rented a farm of his own and in 1940 bought a 66 acre 'wasteland', one of the rare wooded hilly areas in that part of Iowa, a perfect place for Howard to enjoy hunting 'coon' (Raccoon) and fishing. Howard also bought a saw mill. With the mill, he and his brother Ole sawed logs previously cut off the land into lumber to build a small house. Howard and his wife Marcella raised five children in that little house. He added several small parcels of farm land to eventually total 140 acre. For many years, Howard was also employed as Constable for the small city of Riceville, IA.
