I have a Houser family not far from yours in Henderson, Mills County, Iowa.
John Wesley Houser and wife Mary came from Pennsylvania, by way of Illinois, to settle in Henderson some time before 1883 with their children.Their children were
Dollie Viola, Lilly May, Jacob Henry, Joseph Albert, (all born Illinois) John Wesley, Myrtle frances, Florence Geneva, William Ebenezer, Archie Ellsworth, and Raymond E.Most of these children ended up staying in the Henderson/Red Oak, Iowa area.
I haven't done as much reasearch on John Wesley Houser's brother Jacob Nickson Houser, but he also ended up in Iowa and died in Buckner, Montgomery County, Iowa in 1891.
Do you know if these families are related?I am always looking for more info.
