John Hester Allgood married Martha Davis December 9, 1824, in Mercer Co., KY. They lived in Kentucky, Indiana, and possibly Ohio prior to moving to Mahaska County, IA, in approximately 1846. Their three oldest children were born in KY, and the five younger ones were born in Montgomery Co., IN. The family migrated to Mahaska Co., IA, by way of an oxen drawn covered wagon. Most of the children accompanied them on the journey. It is possible that son, Varney, did not move to Iowa as he is not included in the household of John Hester Allgood in the 1850 US Census, Mahaska Co, IA. However, he may have moved to Iowa at a later date.
John H. and Martha homesteaded on 1000 acres of farm land near Rose Hill, Mahaska Co., IA. The first Mahaska Co. fair was held on this farm. John H. was the first veterinarian in Mahaska Co.
