Have you ever wondered how your great grandparents traveled? I did and based upon family lore and historical facts I have woven the story of my great grandparents travel from Indiana to Iowa.
This book will help others appreciate what their ancestors went through to settle this land and the faith that helped them conquer the problems such as illness and death while taming virgin soil to fertile productive farmland.

Patricia Mahala Bahr resides in rural Shellsburg, Iowa. She is the Great Great Granddaughter of Will and Amy Revel and lives not far from the Revel family farm in Vinton, Iowa. The farm has since been sold and the buildings have been razed for farmland. She grew up hearing her mother and grandparents tell the story of how Will and Amy left their family to settle the west. Her life was very busy raising 4 boys and 1 girl and 2 adopted boys when they were 2 and 4 years old. Now all are grown with families. She spent years being Den Mother for the Scouts, then with the older Troops; was volunteer 25 years for the Urbana Ambulance Service and 43 years as Income Tax Preparer. Patricia loves to read and enjoys writing.
