Extractions: BUSINESS TRAVEL CAREERS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ... Questions? Opened for settlement in 1843, Sigourney, Iowa, was named after the distinguished poetess Lydia Huntley Sigourney. The town's Neoclassical courthouse, built in 1909, with the historic Lewis Memorial Fountain gracing its picturesque lawn serves as the central focal point of the community. Known as "The Fountain of Opportunity," Sigourney is undergoing a metamorphosis of sorts, both physically and mentally. Since Main Street Sigourney was founded in 1990 to assist with the revitalization of downtown, a majority of this southeast Iowa community's commercial and public buildings surrounding the courthouse have undergone exterior renovation projects of varying degrees. Nearly $1.5 million has been invested in interior and exterior improvement projects and over 25,000 volunteer hours contributed for the betterment of downtown since 1990. As a result, in 1997, Sigourney was named a finalist for the National Main Street Center's Great American Main Street Award, and ,in 1995, Sigourney was the first community to ever receive Main Street Iowa's Spirit of Main Street award.

January 10, 2007 By Courant Staff Who is Sigourney Street in Hartford named for? Sigourney Street is named for Lydia Huntley Sigourney, known as "the sweet singer of Hartford." She was among the first American women to succeed at a literary career and was an important force in feminine sentimental fiction in the second quarter of the 19th century. Her sentimentality endeared her to Hartford residents and thousands others who asked her to write poetic obituaries for loved ones and even pets. In her memoir, "Letters of Life," she estimated that she responded to 2,000 letters annually. The only child of Ezekial and Zerviah Wentworth Huntley, Sigourney was born in 1791 in Norwich, where she operated a private school for young ladies from 1811 to 1813. At the invitation of the Wadsworth family, she moved to Hartford in 1814 and opened a similar school. In 1815, she began writing for periodicals and published her first book, "Moral Pieces, in Prose and Verse." In 1819, she married merchant Charles Sigourney, a widower with three children. After their marriage she wrote anonymously; her husband opposed her using her name. Her writing proceeds went to charitable causes, from the temperance movement to missions at home and abroad. Sigourney wrote more than 50 books and contributed more than two thousand articles to nearly 300 periodicals. Many of her poems appeared in The Courant during the 1830s.

The association of Halleck and Drake in the most intimate of friendships is one of the pleasant incidents of our literary history. Joseph Rodman Drake was born in New York, became a student of medicine, wrote but a brief amount of verse, although that was of a high quality, and died at twenty-five. "There will be less sunshine for me hereafter," said Halleck, "now that Joe is gone." The two poets joined in contributing to the New York Evening Post a series of anonymous poems, under the general title of The Croakers . These appeared in 1819; they were light, satiric, often personal in aim, and capital examples of what is frequently called "society verse." They excited a great deal of comment at the time, and are said to have been a subject of conversation in drawing-rooms, book-stores, and coffee-houses on Broadway and throughout the city. One of the best poems in the series was Drake's The American Flag , of which the concluding lines "Forever float that standard sheet!

Extractions: One malignant epidemic occured in 1749, which spurred the Rev. Leavenworth of Waterbury to travel on horseback to the Lathrops to obtain some medicine for his suffering people. No drug store in his area towns existed, so the Rev. made the return journey to Norwich in 3 days. Benedict Arnold apprenticed to the Lathrops, according to Mrs Lydia Huntley Sigourney's Letters of Life, the Lathops looked kindly upon their apprectices, receiving them into their own family, and educating them to become useful members of society. Their efforts were wasted on young Benedict. He abused the cats, dogs and horses,dismembered the birds, and stole and crushed their eggs. When sent to the mill for some Indian corn, Arnold would frighten the miller by clinging to the spokes of the revolving wheel, at one time submerging, then again flying through the air, while the miller called him "an imp of the Evil One!" Mrs. Sigourney recalled of Dr. Joshua Lathrop, "his small, well-knit, perfectly erect form, his mild benevolent brow, surmounted by the large round white wig, with its depth of curls, the three-cornered smartly cocked hat, the nicely plaited stock, the rich silver buckles at knee and shoe, the long waistcoat, and fair ruffles over hand and bosom, which marked the gentleman of the old school."

Extractions: Website Keokuk County is named for the famous Sac Indian chief. The name means "Watchful Fox," or "He Who Has Been Everywhere." In May 1843 the entire county was established and opened up for settlement. Before this time the county was attached to Washington County. Like most counties, Keokuk County had its share of problems with the location of the county seat. Some wanted to locate the county seat in the geographical center of the county; others wanted to located it in the population center of the county. This argument was finally settled with the location of the county seat at Sigourney, the geographical center of the county, in 1844. The town was named after the author and poet Lydia Huntley Sigourney. She showed her appreciation by providing the trees which were planted on the courthouse grounds, and presenting 50 volumes to the town library. Before the county seat was located at Sigourney, county business was completed at Western City (or Newton Village). County offices consisted of a log cabin and a log schoolhouse.
