Written by Delight Vitunskas, no date: ... I went through my letter's from Kandi and it turns out it wasn't the letter's from Kandi that told me about the Sargent land in Iowa, but from her Aunt Vione Brooks? Sargent, daughter of Harford & Nellie Sargent, her Vione? grandparents were Emory and Olephia Sargent. This is what she tells me; Dexter Sargent at one time owned several farms south of Strawberry Point. On one of his farms is a "backbone" state park. He (Dexter) let the land go back to the state for taxes and it was developed into the first state park of Iowa. The original Dexter Sargent farm is used for the office of "Back Bone Park", other of the farms he owned are still in existence."
