Homer H. Himes, the youngest son of Charles Himes, whose history is given here, was born in 1853. Mr. Himes was educated in the schools of Goshen, and here on November 25,1880, married Miss Kate, a daughter of John Williams of Lafayette. To them two children were born—Mabel E. and Rena M. The family reside on the old Himes homestead, to which a tract has been added, making a fully improved farm of 220 acres. In politics he is a republican. Since 1867 he has been a member of the Baptist church at Galva, and for seven or eight years past, one of its trustees. Mrs. Himes is also a member of this church.
