Biography
From the Arrow Rock Archive: John B. Townsend, P. O., Arrow Rock. Mr. Townsend was born in Cooper County, Mo., February 20, 1821. His father, Saunders A.W., moved from South Carolina to Kentucky at an early day, and remained there about three years, and then moved to Cooper County, Mo., near the Saline county line. Here John B. was born and raised on the farm, and was educated in the neighborhood schools. In 1849 he moved to this county and settled on the farm where he now lives. Mr. Townsend married at the age of forty-five. On the 20th of September, 1866, he was united in marriage to Miss Eliza Dysart. They have five living children: Lena F., John E., Robert Lester, Susan P., Anna Louisa. Mr. Townsend is an old settler of Saline county, and a worth citizen, who pays his taxes, lives honorably, hurts nobody, and renders to every man his due.
