STYLES, Levi A. (Dedham, MA, 1802--Dubuque, IA, Aug. 1860) Levi Andrew Styles was described as 5'10 1/2" tall with blue eyes and dark hair and a "labourer" when he enlisted in the United States Army on February 10, 1834 in Wheeling, Virginia. He joined for a term of three years in the First Dragoon Company 1 under Captain Jesse B. Browne. This group of soldiers was assigned to Fort Des Moines.

From the journal of an unidentified dragoon of Company 1 (Friday, May the Twenty-Third, 1834) edited by Louis Pelzer, 1909

After a march of 27 miles made Camp Clyman. The first
part of this days march was over a barren soil with
good water, in the afternoon the land was good with
some of the best springs I ever saw. Our men & horses
are improving & our situation is as pleasant as can be
expected while on a march. Our officers are J. B. Brown[e],
Capt.; Albert Gallatin Edwards, Lieut.; L. A. Styles 1,
B. F. Price 2, J. C. Parrott 10 3, L.A. Thompson 4,
sergeants; Bartlett Terrill Easman & Rice corporals.

and from the same source: [Sunday, June the First]

Tarried all day it being remarkably warm for the season.
We are now 10 miles from the Fort.

from the same source: [Monday, June the Second]

Marched 9 miles and encamped 1 mile from the Fort at a
place called Camp Jackson. We are now at the end of our
journey to this place, having marched 453 miles...

On June, 1836 Sergeant Styles and several other soldiers were discharged from duty, their term of enlistment having expired.

Styles next appears in records in 1842 when he becomes the first postmaster and justice of the peace in Cascade. He married Mary Turner on October 26, 1843.

Around 1853 the Styles family including a daughter, Mary, moved to Dubuque. They became members of [[FIRST CONGREGATIONAL UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST]] and he began a thriving real estate and insurance business. In the 1860 census, the company of [[L. A. STYLES]] was listed as a land agent for 8,000 acres of real estate and 100 personal properties.
