"Robert Farnsworth, a native of Pennsylvania, was born in 1822. He grew to manhood in the State of his nativity, where he received but a limited education. When seventeen months old, his father died, and, one month later, his mother also died. After the death of his parent, Robert lived with his grandfather until he was eight years old, at which time the grandfather also died. Robert was then "bound out" to learn the cabinet-maker's trade. At sixteen years of age, he turned hi attention to farming, and afterwards was engaged in the iron works, in his native place. In 1855, he came to Bremer county, Iowa, and located in section7, Washington township. There he remained until 1875, when he sold that farm and removed to Polk township, where he now owns 155 acres of well cultivated land. In 1846, he was married to Miss Mary Wolverton, a native of Pennsylvania. Seven children blessed this union - Teressa J., Harriet L., Martha P., Ella, Isaac W., Robert F. and Joseph Monroe. Mr Farnsworth's wife died May 12, 1868, and, in 1877, he was married to Miss Sarah Hurlbut, a native of New York."
