Carrie Unice Brown was born July 3, 1852, at LaPorte, Indiana, and died at Postville, Iowa, December 3, 1931.

She was the only girl of a family of four children. two boys were older and one younger. With her parents she came to Iowa in 1854 and settled in Bloomfield township, Winneshiek county, where she resided until the death of her parents, her father passing in 1862 and her mother in 1865. She then went to Wisconsin, where she lived with relatives for two years.

Returning to Iowa she was united in marriage to Moses A. Bollman, March 24, 1873, and resided in Bloomfield township until the death of Mr. Bollman in 1909. She then moved to Postville, where she resided until her death.

There are also 39 grandchildren, 38 great-grandchildren, and a multitude of other relatives and friends.

She has left with each a sweet remembrance of a life of service well and willingly rendered in the name of Christ - a great and wonderful heritage.

On the 24th of March 1874, Mr. Bollman was again married, his second wife being Miss Carrie Brown, who was born in Laporte, Indiana, July 3, 1852. She is a daughter of Luther and Mary (Walrath) Brown, both natives of that section, the father born November 1, 1823, and the mother, October 11, 1830. They came to Iowa in 1854 and in that year located on a farm five miles northwest of Postville, whereon they continued to reside until January 5, 1862, when the father died. Mrs. Brown and her children moved into Castalia, where she passed away, October 11, 1865. Their daughter, Mrs. Bollman, is one of a family of four children. She grew up on her father's farm near Postville and attended what was then known as the old red school house, located one mile from her father's home. This school, now called the Oak Ridge school, is attended by her own children. By this second marriage Mr. Bollman had eight children: Fenton, who is engaged in farming near Caldwell, Idaho; Parker, a farmer residing at Basin, Wyoming; Stella, the wife of Hayes Hougland, a farmer and rancher near Republic, Washington; Talcott, who makes his home with his mother; Farrell, a farmer near Cottonwood, South Dakota; Vera, the wife of B. Post, a farmer in the vicinity of Caldwell, Idaho; Vives, a photographer residing in Postville; and Oberton, who is studying butter making at the State.

When Moses Ayers Bollman died in 1909, Carrie Brown Bollman sold the family farm and came to Postville where she purchased a comfortable and attractive residence in which she expects to spend the remainder of her life. She is a devout member of the Methodist Episcopal church and is affiliated with the Ladies Aid Society, in which she has accomplished much useful and beneficial work.
