William Overacker moved his family from Jones Co., Iowa to Red Willow County, NE at about 1872. At about 1877, the family "journeyed thence by ox team to the vicinity of Genessee, Idaho, putting up the first (general) store in that section. The father took up a homestead seven miles from the nearest neighbor, and there he devoted his labors until his death in 1884. ...The Story of My Life, Christina Freeman Corbin (courtesy of Natalie Riggin Neal nneal@sbcglobal.net)
