 Anmerkung |
George Davis, son of the early settlers, Archibald and Elizabeth A. Davis, is one of the first born of the town of Spring Grove, that event having occurred Jan. 24, 1842. He lived with his parents, working on the farm and attending school winters until he reached manhood, or nearly so, when he enlisted in company B, 18th Wisconsin Volunteers, and one week from the day of leaving the State was in the battle of Pittsburg Landing, a rough beginning for a soldier boy. He participated in every engagement of the regiment until the battle of Jackson, Miss., May 14, 1863, when he was wounded and taken prisoner, and carried east to Libby prison at Richmond, and later released on parole, and taken to Annapolis, Md., and then sent to the parole camp at St. Louis. In December, 1863, he was exchanged, and rejoined the regiment at Huntsville, Ala. He was in the campaign against Atlanta, and in the heroic battle at Allatoona Pass. Mr. Davis has a trophy captured in that battle, a Queen Anne musket full six feet in length, captured on the skirmish line. Veteranizing with a part of the regiment, he returned to Wisconsin on a furlough in December, 1864. Then returning to the command rejoined Sherman's grand army at Goldsboro, N. C., in April,1865. He was in the battle of Kingston, N. C., and was in line at the grand review of the army at Washington in June, 1865, and was mustered out with the regiment at Milwaukee. Mr. Davis was married to Ann E. Brant, daughter of John A. Brant, Oct. 1, 1865, and commenced keeping house on seventy acres of land purchased from his father on section 30. He has since added eighty acres of adjoining land in the town of Jefferson. They have a very comfortable home enlivened by four children—Francis E., born Oct. 25, 1866; Mattie J. born July 8, 1869; Judd E., born Aug. 24, 1870; and George B., born June 10, 1873. From 1866 to 1883, with the exception of one year, Mr. Davis has served as justice of the peace. He is a member of the W. W. Patton, G. A. R. Post, No. 90. |
