....Zachariah Thompson and Priscilla Albaugh came
to Brush Creek or Arlington, Fayette County, Iowa, in 1865, following the lead
of sons Samuel and Morris J. who pioneered in the Taylorville/Brush Creek
area in 1854. Sons William and Alex would soon remove to Fayette County .
The Thompson's were a true pioneer family in the southeast corner and central
part of Fayette County, Iowa, in the early 1850's, and in Harrison/Carroll County, Ohio in the
1820's. All of the other Thompson children would migrate to
Fayette County, Iowa, and many descendents would move as pioneer farmers to the west as
land opened up in the 1870's through the 1890's.
.....Priscilla Albaugh (1805-1879) would meet and marry Zachariah C. Thompson (1796-1880) on January 15, 1822, in New Rumley Twp., Harrison Co., Ohio. The Thompson's were of Scottish background, having immigrated to American as part of the Scotch-Irish movement in the early 1700's. The Thompson Story will be told on another page.
Zach Thompson had migrated at the age of 21 from Maryland to Harrison Co., Ohio, in 1817.
Zach and Priscilla would farm and have ten children in Harrison Co., Ohio. In
1854, two of their children Samuel and Morris Jackson Thompson would migrate and be very early settlers
near Taylorsville, three miles to the N,NW of Brush Creek (later Arlington), Iowa.
Brush Creek however, would soon become the dominate village in the area for the
Thompson Clan. Other children would also migrate to Brush Creek with their
siblings.
....Samuel (my gggrandfather) would die on the way back to Ohio in 1865, perhaps to get the
parents, and be buried in Allen Cemetery in Harrison Co. Thus in 1865, Zach C, age 69, and Priscilla, age 60, would buy 120 acres of a government tract on the very southern edge of the tiny pioneer village of Brush Creek (the history of Brush Creek/Arlington is on other pages} and farm their until their deaths fifteen years later. The farm land was tall and wet grass prairie, located
to the SE of the Six Corner Intersection at the south edge of Brush Creek. The
old Mission Trail from Dubuque to Ft. Atkinson ran on the western edge of their land. Son Morris J. was farming two miles to the
west of Brush Creek. Son Samuel had been farming in the Grannis Canyon area six miles to the north, and apparently
(my gggrandmother) Samuel's wife Martha Sherman Thompson, with six children
(ages 1-10) were still on that farm when Zach and Priscilla arrived from Ohio, in 1865. At
least some of Samuel's and Martha's children were taken in by Morris J.
Martha would go on the marry M.E. Little, a Brush Creek farmer and cooper a
couple of miles NW of town.
....Thus the Thompson/Albuagh Clan connection to Taylorsville, Brush
Creek/Arlington, Fayette County, Iowa, began in
1854, with the migration of the sons, and of Zach Caleb I and Priscilla Albaugh
Thompson in 1865, and the migration of several other children. Zach and Priscilla, Morris J. Eli, and William. are buried in Groat Cemetery, Arlington,
Iowa, along with their spouses and some grandchildren. Many of the grandchildren of Zach and Priscilla continued the pioneer migration to the west, during the last decades of the 1800's. The
Clans were true American Pioneers.

My main interest in the Capper
surname is three fold:
1. The relationship to the Ohio area pioneer surnames living in the same
general location that removed to Fayette County Iowa in the 1850's.
2. The marriage of Jane Capper to William
David Thompson in Carroll County, Ohio and their immigration to Fayette
County, Iowa, in the early 1850's as some of the first pioneers into the
area. Fayette County and Thompson history is linked above. William
David Thompson was the brother of my gggrandfather Samuel
Thompson.
3. And the collection of Thompson data on all lines of offspring of Zach
C. Thompson I and Priscilla Albaugh, in preparation for the 100th consecutive
Thompson reunion to be held in Arlington (formerly Brush Creek), Iowa, the
second Sunday in August of 2003.
