The following is from "Early Rowan, Wright County Iowa, Iowa history from 1855 to 1925" by Lowell Konkler
George Bingham, one of the earliest settlers, came to Wright County in 1857 where he purchased 160 acres of land in Iowa Township northwest of Rowan at $1.25 per acre. Their homestead is now the property of Peter Hanson. The first house was a rather crude affair made of such material as was accessible in the early days. He married Caroline Wehren and to this union six children were born, Lorenzo (deceased), Clarence Bingham of Rowan and Susan, Emily, the oldest daughter also deceased. Mr. Bingham was a man of strong character, hardworking and patient, painstaking and honest, as the day is long. By careful investment he amassed a large fortune. He died in 1902 mourned by the entire community.
