History of Guthrie and Adair Counties, Iowa; Springfield, Ill: Continental Hist. Co., 1884; Casey Transcribed by Bobbi Pohl; Calvin W. Doop, stock dealer, raiser, and shipper, commenced buying cattle in Casey, in the year 1874. He came from Kansas, where he was engaged in the same business, also, breeding fine cattle. Mr. Doop has a fine farm of four hundred acres in Walnut township, Adair county, at which place he is breeding polled Angus cattle, and has a sufficient range for his usually large herd of steers. His business is extensive, and his stockyards in the village are convenient and roomy, with scales and all necessary arrangements to afford the farmer a good market, for his extra stock. Mr. Doop lives in Adair county, in that part of Casey extending over the line. He is a native of Washington county, Ohio, son of Joseph and Catherine (Windland) Doop. His father is a native of New York, and his mother of Ohio, her father being one of the first settlers there. In 1858 the Doop family removed to Vermillion county, Illinois, and was there on a farm. When the civil war broke out, Calvin enlisted in company F, 35th Illinois infantry, serving three years and three months. He was in thirteen different battles, and was wounded at Stone River, Altona mountains. The company was mustered in at Georgetown, Illinois, and out at Springfield. On his return home he tried farming one year, when he removed to Missouri and subsequently to Kansas, owning a nice ranch and shipping stock. He was married in Illinois, December 24,1864, to Anna White, a native of Indiana, but reared in Illinois, a daughter of James White, a cooper by trade and a wealthy man near Danville. Three children have been born to them--William P., Ina M. and Etna C. In politics he is a republican. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~iabiog/guthrie/g1884/g1884-casey.htm

From: DARMLO@aol.com; Sent: Saturday, May 07, 2011; To: ron@yatesville.net; Hi Ron, I forwarded the info to another family member...She's 89, was married to my grandfather's brother(Russel Doop). Anyway, here's a little info that she passed on to me. "Sometime ago I found "the first of the family Dopf to spell it Doop was a man named Joseph appearing in a 1715 census of New York." I have passed that on to Tracy and think I don't remember the correct spelling "Dopf" (?) of the group who "left Germany during the Palintinate period because freedom of religion was punished; they went to Holland and later to England and then to the Colonies. Does any of that correspond with your search. " Darlene
