Stephen Ives, was born in New Hampshire in August, 1803, and on reaching manhood was married in Vermont, January 18, 1836, to Miss Sarah Nutt, a native of that state, whose birth occurred in June, 1812. Coming west in 1840, they first located in Muskingum county, Ohio, and later removed to Coshocton county, that state. It was in 1855 that they brought their family to Cedar county, Iowa, and located on the place where the stone mill now stands. At the early age of nine years Mr. Ives entered a woolen factory and throughout the remainder of his life followed the occupation of carding and cloth dressing, owning and operating a small factory in this county until his death, which occurred March 30, 1857. His second wife survived him for many years, dying in Tipton in December, 1896. By his first, marriage, Sarah Wallace, he had two sons: Victor, who was drowned at the age of eight years; and Orange, now a resident of Denver, Colorado. His second union was with Sarah Nutt and to them were born four children: John N., now of Boulder, Colorado; Mary, now Mrs. Dwigans; William, who died in 1900; and Emma, the wife of Justus Keller, of Emmettsburg, Iowa.
