Title

C.L. Barnhouse in Iowa Brigade Band Uniform, Circa 1895; Oskaloosa, Iowa

Description

When citizens of Oskaloosa think of music, the name C.L. Barnhouse comes to mind often. Barnhouse came to Iowa from West Virginia as a young adult in search of a successful music career. In 1890, he made Oskaloosa, Iowa his residence and formed the Knights of Pythias Brigade Band. A self-taught cornet player, Barnhouse and his band practiced their music and routines constantly, establishing themselves among the people of Oskaloosa and that of Iowa as an entertaining and serious band. When Barnhouse came to Iowa, he also created the Barnhouse Music Publishing Company, which emphasized printing and publicizing music created during the late 19th Century. This business was very successful and is still running today in Oskaloosa. Barnhouse died in 1929, leaving a musical legacy to the town of Oskaloosa

Title

Carbonado Company Store, 1896; Carbonado, Iowa; Mahaska County

Description

This is a photograph of the Carbonado Company Store in 1896. Since Carbonado was a coal mining community, company stores like the one pictured here received almost all of its business from the men's families that were working in the mines. When the work in the mines was up, the company store was one of the first businesses to go. Carbonado, like so many other communities in Mahaska County, virtually disappeared overnight when the coal mining industry dissipated in the county. Coal mining employees went elsewhere to find work to support their families.
