The NY-Iowa connection caught my eye.I don't know if this fits with your work thus far:
My great-grandfather Andrew Marcus Horton came from Watertown NY; served 1861-65 in the 5th NY Vol. Cavalry; then after the war married Emma Ryder and moved to Algona, IA, where he was editor of the Algona Republican newspaper for several years.He died 1889 in Santa Clara, CA.
