Life in Iowa was tough for the first pioneers. Read about the Leverson family history at the Hjartdal Historielag website, under the emigration history tab. This is great reading about a pioneer family that arrived in Iowa during the 1850s, then suffered losses during the Civil War. Through it all, the original homestead is still in the family and is called MariLand in honor of the grandmother Mari.
