Individual Details
Johann H Stutt
(14 May 1838 - 9 Dec 1911)
SOURCE: Joyce Fishwild....John Stutt enlisted twice in the union army and fought in the Civil War. He came back to Germany and married Gesche Maria Harms. Johann Stutt came to America on June 23, 1858. The ship 'Hermine' sailed from Bremen to New York. He was 20 years old. He settled in Illinois. On this same ship were Albert Siemers and his wife Catherine Sophia both 22. Their daughter Anna Sophia Siemers was about four years old. It appears that they all went to Illinois before coming to Jones County, Iowa.

John Stutt, however, came to this country in his young manhood, in 1861, and from the first closely identified himself with affairs here, for shortly after his arrival in the state of Illinois, he enlisted in the Union army. He served valiantly throughout the course of the Civil war and then at its close came to Jones county, Iowa, where he found work with John Jacobs, of Scotch Grove township. The next year, however, he returned to Germany to wed the woman he had courted before coming to this country, and when he crossed the ocean again he came immediately to Jones county, once more entering the employ of Mr. Jacobs. After one year's experience on the farm he located in Wayne Center, where he remained for two or three years, afterward buying a tract of land in Wayne township. That has been his home ever since and is his residence today. During the two score years and more that have passed, however, he has invested extensively in real estate, at one time owning three hundred and twenty acres. Some of this he has disposed of but he is still possessed of two hundred acres, and is still an active representative of the agricultural interests.
