Biographical & Genealogical History of Appanoose & Monroe
Counties, Iowa

Samuel Elder page 246
In almost all American communities there may be found quiet, retiring
men,
who never ask for public office or appear prominent in public affairs,
yet who, nevertheless,
exert a wide-felt influence in the community in which they live
and help to construct the proper
foundation upon which the social and political world is built.
Such a man is Samuel Elder,
who throughout his entire life has been an honored and respected
citizen of Monroe county.
He was born on the farm on which he still resides,
ten miles northeast of Albia, four miles
north of Avery and three miles from Chisholm, the latter being his
postoffice address, and
the date of his birth was January 26, 1853.
His paternal grandfather, John Elder, came to this country
from Ireland when twenty years of age,
and his death occurred in Ohio, while on the maternal side our subject
is descended from old Pennsylvania ancestry.
He is a son of Matthew and Jane ( Lowery ) Elder, the former of
whom was born in Coshocton county, Ohio.
In 1850 Matthew Elder came to Iowa, locating on our subject’s present
homestead,
where he passed away in death at the age of sixty-eight years and
one month.
His wife, who was born near Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, died at the
home of a son of Albia,
when she had passed the age of eighty-one years.
Ten children were the result of this union, nine of whom are still
living, and the deceased daughter left a family of five children.
Samuel Elder received his early education in the schools
of Monroe county,
while later he attended the educational institutions of Eddyville,
Iowa, and Monmouth, Illinois.
After his marriage he located in Ringgold county, Iowa, where he
farmed on rented land for two years,
after which he purchased and removed to a place in Wayne county,
this state.
After a residence there of one year he sold his possessions and
purchased the three hundred acres
which constitute his present valuable homestead. The farm
is located in Pleasant township,
and at the time of purchase was only partially improved, but he
has since placed the entire tract under cultivation,
and it is now one of the valuable farms of the county. He
devotes his attention to general farming and stock raising,
and in both lines of industry his efforts are being rewarded with
a high and well merited degree of success.
The marriage of Mr. Elder was celebrated on the
14th of March, 1878, when Miss Anna Chisholm became his wife.
She was born in Columbiana county, Ohio, and is a member of an old
and prominent family of Monroe county, Iowa,
the village of Chisholm, located therein, having been named in honor
of her father.
She is a daughter of William and Mary ( McQueen ) Chisholm.
The father, also of Columbiana county, Ohio, came to Iowa in 1860,
and his death occurred in this state at the age of sixty years.
His mother, Janet, reached the remarkable age of one hundred and
one years, and she was from Scotland.
The mother of Mrs. Elder, who was born in Columbiana county, Ohio,
also spent her last days in this locality,
passing away in death at the age of sixty years. By her marriage
Mrs. Elder has become the mother of three children,
the two eldest of whom, Charles M. and Mary E., are attending Penn
College of Oskaloosa, Iowa, and the youngest, Janet, is at home.
In political matters Mr. Elder has been a life-long
Republican, his first vote having been cast for R.B. Hayes
in his race for the presidency, and in 1899 he was elected to the
position of supervisor and he was made chairman of the board.
The family are members of the United Presbyterian church,
and Mr. Elder assisted materially
in the erection of the house of worship of that denomination in
this locality.
