From the History of Henry County:
John A Bollen was born July 22, 1805 in Ohio, the son of Thomas and Mary (Potts) Bollen, and came to Henry county, Illinois, in 1836, securing land in Loraine township. At the time of his advent here wild game of all kinds, but especially deer, abounded, and the Indians were frequent visitors at the white men's houses. He lived to see these conditions become no more than a memory, for when he died, January 2, 1888, Henry county was well advanced toward the condition it now enjoys.
He participated in this progress, for he was a man of public spirit who filled in turn all the offices of his township. When the republican party was or ganized he joined its ranks and was fired by the discussions that preceded the Civil war. He was twice married.
His first wife. Miss Sarah Hooks in her maidenhood. was born November 16. 1813. and died November 3, 1843. having borne four children: Mary, who married James Armstrong; John; William, who lives in Bayard, Iowa; and Fletcher, who died in February. 1908.
Mr. Bollen’s second wife was Mrs. Parmelia Loomis, by whom he also had five children, living: George, of Orchard. Nebraska ; Heman and Lucretia. twins, the former a resident of Prophetstown, Illinois. and the latter the wife of David Parker of Seattle, Washington; Thomas, who lives in Nebraska, and Lewis deceased.
