Robert Mortimer McBroom
I am requesting any information that anyone may know about Robert Mortimer McBroom, b. April 4, 1824 in Hocking Co., Ohio. He was the son of Robert and Nancy Vinson Cantwell McBroom.He married Susannah Winters and died on July 26, 1915.
I am helping a doctoral canidate at the University that I attend.She is writing her research paper about the Grange in Decatur County, Iowa and apparently Robert Mortimer was very prominant in it.He may have helped to build a cheese factory in Decatur Co.All I know is that he came to Iowa in the 1850's, but if anyone knows why, or anymore info about him, or his parents, grandparents, etc.Please feel free to email me at: [email protected].
Thanks ever so much!=)
