“Grandma Amos”
Mary Stephens Amos (and James Amos)
in Warren County, Iowa
by Marieta A. Grissom, CG
The year was 1831, a pivotal year in United States history, even though the events are not memorized in school.
The year also marked the birth of a child, Mary Emily Stephens, who became a remarkable woman.
Newspapers were numerous in 1831, spreading news of current events to the masses. On 12 February an eclipse
of the sun was visible along the eastern seaboard, an event so heralded by the newspapers beforehand, that the
eclipse itself seemed anti-climatic.1 Nat Turner, a Virginia slave, led a group of slaves on a murdering rampage.2
Congress and the Supreme Court considered the removal of the Cherokee Nation from Georgia,3
The feud between President Andrew Jackson and Vice President John C. Calhoun was fodder for newspapers.
The two differed on the role of the Union and the states. Then a scandal erupted involving Jackson’s personal
life, undermining his effectiveness. To regain control Jackson was forced to ask his cabinet to resign.4
Other items in 1831 probably didn’t make newspaper headlines across the country, but the events no less
impacted history. On 4 July 1831, honoring the country’s fifty-fifth anniversary a choir in Boston sang “My
country, ‘tis of thee” for the first time.5 Cyrus McCormick, Virginia farmer, tested his mechanical reaper.6 In
Philadelphia, a steam-powered railroad car made its inaugural trip, one and a quarter miles.7 John James
Audubon toured eastern states from New York to Florida, studying and drawing birds.8 And, protracted camp
meetings fired religious revivalism.9
On 4 July, James Monroe, former President, died in poverty.10 And, before year’s end, a cholera epidemic entered
United States from Europe.11
Natural phenomena, politics, religion, industry, currency, mass media, racial struggles, transportation, and disease
were all part of the lives of Americans in 1831.
Into this world, Mary Emily Stephens was born on 13 September in Virginia.12

Mary lived to be 101, an awesome wonderment for a pioneer woman. As she approached centenarian status, the
local newspapers duly noted her birthdays with an interview, likely a relished assignment for the reporter.
“Grandma Amos,” as everyone called her, related her stories in straightforward manner. But the life events she
described probably awed the listener. Today her stories are still amazing. The family’s struggles, assiduous work
ethic, perseverance through hardship, resolve in adversity, and unique patriotism emerge. Because these stories
were printed in the newspapers, readers today know many details about her life.
None of Mary’s remembrances mention any of the national events that took place during her lifetime, let alone the
ones that took place during her birth year, but there is no doubt that consequences of many of the 1831 events
affected her life. Perhaps the first one took place when she was a mere infant.
She was born in Rockingham County, Virginia. When she was about one year old, her parents moved to Madison
County, Ohio, where she grew up. Whether her family fled Virginia in response to growing racial tensions is not
known, but they moved to a non-slave state. When she was about eighteen, her family moved further west to
Knox County, Illinois.13 Her early life then became symbolic of the westward, anti-slavery movement.
Mary Emily Stephens and James Monroe Amos married on 27 August 1850.14 For four years, they lived on a
rented farm in Knox County, worked hard, and accumulated nearly $400.15
James Amos knew land in Iowa was cheaper than in Illinois.16 He wanted to take a look, then return for his
family if he liked it, 17 but Mary was spunky and wouldn’t hear of it. “I told him just to wait two or three weeks
until we got the spinning and weaving done and could get our clothes ready and we would all come together and
make one trip do it.” Thus, in the fall of 1854, the husband, wife and two small girls, journeyed westward to
Warren County, Iowa. 18
Mary continued, “We started for Iowa in a covered wagon drawn by horses. A great many others drove oxen, but
my husband always had horses. We arrived in Warren County in early November and entered three forties19…
and preempted forty acres of timber. By preemption we were given first right to enter the land at a later date.”20
They selected a site in the timber, built a 12x14 foot log cabin with grass growing on the dirt floor, and lived there
the first winter. By living in the timber, James was close by as he spent the winter cutting logs for a house and
splitting rails for fences. Their two little girls, Orra and Laura, were joined by a third daughter, Ida. In the spring
they built a house on their three forties’ farm and sold their rights to the timber forty for $100.21
She spoke on, “Money was scarce. I remember that Amos bought a spade from Mose Barker and Mose inquired
if he had the money to pay for it. One time he was worried over getting his corn planted. We had no money to
hire hands. I told him to put the cover on the wagon and put the cradle in it. I put a couple of comforts in the
wagon and we went to the field. The two little girls and the baby staying in the wagon and I dropped corn. They
got along just fine. [Mr.] Amos would mark out the rows, I’d drop the corn, and then he would come along and

cover it with his plow. I could drop as fast as he could mark and cover and we got the crop planted in good shape
without paying out anything for hired labor.”22
During the national struggle between the North and the South, James and Mary struggled on their farm. And, like
their country, they experienced both life and death. Five children were born: Nancy, John, James Liberty, Mary,
and Lourena.23 Then, in June 1863 a severe epidemic of diphtheria tragically took the lives of Ida, 8, Nancy, 6,
and John, 4, in less than two weeks.24 The local epidemic continued into the fall. A few miles away, between 22
September and 8 October, tragedy struck six children in the Eberman family. “The father cut native timber to
make the six coffins. No funerals were held.”25
After several years, James and Mary sold this farm west of Indianola26 and James journeyed back to his native
Baltimore, Maryland. One story of his youth is that his father died when he was a small boy. His mother, unsure
of raising her sons in a city, found a good family moving to Ohio. The boys lived there until able to fend for
themselves.27
James and Mary’s granddaughter, Mary Amos Smith heard a different story. “My father [Sherman] told us that
his father said he was descended from French Royalty. Also[,] that one time he went to see his sister in Maryland
who had been adopted by wealthy aristocrats and she wouldn’t have anything to do with him. He also told my
father that a wealthy couple wanted to adopt him, but he told them he was older and could make his own way, and
asked them to adopt his younger brother, John. So they did and gave him the education to be a minister.”28
In 1867 James traded for land on Otter Creek south and east of Indianola.29 They built a red house on the
Hammondsburg road where Grant, Sherman, and Alice were born. 30
George Hutt owned a farm just a short distance away and was not doing well. He was also a road supervisor and
was unhappy with that, as well. One day he made a remark in the presence of James Amos that if he “could get
$30 an acre for the place, he would sell out and leave the d—n country.” Well, James had $100 in his pocket. He
handed the money to Hutt and said, “Hutt, your place is sold, and George Pearson is a witness that I’ve paid you
$100 to bind the bargain. We will go to town tomorrow and fix up the papers.” By the next day Hutt regretted
his comment, but a deal was a deal to James Amos. 31 James and Mary took possession, built a large new house,
and lived there until James died. This house was located at a crossroads. Many people in 2009 still know this as
the “Amos Corner” since members of the Amos family eventually owned the land on all four corners.
Whether James owned one of Cyrus McCormick’s reapers is not known. But, he most likely purchased a similar
machine as his farming operation expanded.

James Amos sitting on the front
step of his house and it appears
some of his women folk are
peering out of the second-story
windows.
James Amos was a self-made man. A Methodist, a Republican, a member of the Masonic Lodge and the
Independent Order of Odd Fellows, treasurer of the county school funds, and a township assessor, Mr. Amos was
a highly respected member of the community.32
“After we were married in 1850,” Mary continued, “Amos had 95 cents in his pocket. That was all he had in the
world; but God was good to us and seemed to help us get things together. When he came from Ohio to Illinois as
a young man, he had saved a hundred dollars, which he had in his pocket. While he was asleep on a steamboat
somebody picked his pocket and he arrived in Illinois with almost nothing. Many a day he worked there, both
before and after we were married, for 50 cents a day, splitting rails.”33
One time a neighbor who lived a half mile away wanted to go back to Indiana to visit the home folks, so Mary
walked the half mile morning and evening to milk the cows and look after everything. She churned the cream and
sold the butter and with this money bought a set of dishes—English ironstone, Tea Leaf pattern, that was popular
in those days.34 Mary also made trips back to see her folks in Illinois, 35 and her most likely means of
transportation was the steam-powered train.
James Monroe Amos was born on 4 July36 when James Monroe was President of the United States; this may have
started a patriot naming pattern for the Amos males. Son, James Liberty, known as “Liberty” was also born on 4
July.37 Sons George Grant Amos and William Sherman Amos, known throughout their lives as “Grant” and
“Sherman,” respectively, undoubtedly were named for the famous Union generals.
James Liberty died 22 May, 1893. 38 Mr. Amos died May 8, 1898.39 For a time, Mary lived with her son
Sherman and her daughter Ora, both in the Milo area. However, for the last 12 to 14 years of her life, she lived in
Indianola, with her daughter Lorena Butler.40

Grandma Amos smoked a pipe! One time her great-granddaughter, Thelma Butler
Pehrson, asked her why she smoked. The answer was that when she and her
husband finished with their day’s work and relaxed after supper, they sat on the
back step or back porch and each smoked a pipe and they reviewed the day or
planned the next day or year’s work, and it became a habit.41
Apparently, the evenings on the back step were time well spent. When James died
after nearly 48 years of marriage, they owned 708 acres, held nearly $10,000 in
cash and notes, and owned more than $6,000 in household goods, livestock,
machinery, and crops.42
Grandma Amos lost her sight at about 76 years of age, and she suffered a fall at
about age 93, after which she was confined to her bed.43 During her life, she saw
things that were once unthinkable or unheard of become luxuries and conveniences,
then become so common place as to become necessities. Indoor plumbing and
electricity are examples. The world of transportation moved from the railroad that
tested its steam engine during her birth year to automobiles. During her later years,
while bedridden, she enjoyed hours of listening to radio stations KFNF and KMA.44
Grandma Amos 1921
KFNF, started by Henry Fields, transmitted out of Shenandoah, Iowa, and KMA
was also a southwest Iowa station; both stations had programming of interest to rural women.
Thelma also remembered, “Grandma’s room was on the southeast corner of the second floor and was the nicest
bedroom in the large house. Her room was adjacent to the bathroom, though she could not use it. I can still
remember hearing Grandma Amos yell for her daughter, ‘Ree-nee!’ [short for Lorena] to come tend to whatever
was her need at that time. Her sons Sherman and Grant would come periodically to lift their mother out of the
bed so Lorena could change the bedding.”45
As children, Thelma and her brother always dreaded having to trudge up the stairs to visit Grandma Amos.
However, Thelma said that she is sure Grandma Amos enjoyed having visitors, especially children.46
Thelma remembers that Grandma Amos still smoked after dinner and supper and Lorena could hardly wait until
her mother was finished smoking to come up to the room, open the windows wide, and air out the room!47
Mary’s surviving children apparently tried to visit their mother for her birthday or for the holidays. Ora lived in
Artesian, South Dakota, Laura in Council Grove, Kansas, Mary in Marquis, Saskatchewan, Canada, and Alice in
Omaha, Nebraska. Lorena, Grant, and Sherman all remained in the Indianola area.48
Among the 150 or so visitors at her one hundredth birthday was B. F. Lucas. He was a lad, who had helped drive
a herd of 1100 sheep from Pennsylvania. The journey had been twelve weeks and three days. Upon arriving
here, the owners of the sheep purchased Mr. Amos’s crop, made arrangements for the sheep to remain there for
the winter, left Ben Lucas to look after them, and boarded him with the Amos family. Ben wrote of his
experience with Grandma Amos.
“I presume that I am as well, or perhaps better acquainted with Grandma Amos than any other
man in Warren county, having met her for the first time in the month of September, 1864. At that
time I was a boy of but fourteen years of age… and although my own mother was almost a

thousand miles away, that deficiency could hardly be felt, or at least the situation was materially
relieved, as long as Mrs. Amos had charge of the boy’s welfare.
“I was the recipient of three well-cooked meals each day for six days in the week with something
extra for the seventh. My clothes were kept clean, always mended and buttons well sewed on.
All done cheerfully and with a motherly spirit, and when I dropped the washpan in the well, there
was no display of bad temper. Mother Amos just appointed J. Garlow a committee of one to go
down and get it.
“…I have enjoyed many interesting visits with Mother Amos since she has been confined to her
bed, each of which was an inspiration, and after I had visited her on her last birthday I came away
impressed with the thought that Mother Amos really is not old, but has just simply lived a
hundred years.”49
Grandma Amos died February 18, 1933, at the age of 101 years, 5 months and 6 days. Being born in 1831, the
year of the eclipse and many other significant national struggles, her long life reflected simpler concerns: family
and hard work.

United Spanish War Veterans
By Susan Claman
The Spanish-American War lasted less than a year from 21 April 1898 to 11 April 1899 although actual
hostilities ceased on 13 August 1898. Fifty-seven thousand three hundred twenty nine (57,329) regular
troops participated, 223,235 militia and volunteer troops and 31,959 Navy personnel (this number includes
officers in the US Marine Corps but not officers in the US Navy proper) for a total of 312,523. Soon after
the men returned home they began to form veterans’ organizations. Originally there were several
organizations. In 1904 three of the most prominent merged into a single organization known as the United
Spanish War Veterans (USWV).
The TAPS form included the name of camp, camp number, department of (state), file date, name and highest
rank in USWV, US Service (highest rank), Co, ship/regt, married or single, number and age of children,
place of birth, place of death, date of death, buried in <blank> cemetery at <blank> with military honors,
grave in charge of and camp number. TAPS is an acronym for Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors.
The following is a partial index of the death records we have at the IGS library. All information is
transcribed as written on the form. To obtain a copy of the one record (1 sheet, two sides) send a request to
IGS. The cost is $5.00 for members or $7.50 for non-members plus $1.00 for postage and handling.
