SOLDIERS.


HISTORY.


The 50th regiment was organized a few days before the ter- mination of active war. They were consequently detached for service in the western frontier forts, where they remained until their discharge which took place in June 1866.


CONCLUSION.


The list of "Soldiers Furnished by Buffalo County," must close here. I have in the introduction called attention to the means, and the want of them, for compiling such a list reliably, and have but to say that I made the best use I could of existing opportu- nities. I have now to remark, that all these soldiers were, of course, early settlers of the county, and if the names of some of them do not appear on the list of "Early Settlers," while some do, it must not be attributed to any neglect or partiality on my part, but to favorable opportunity of learning particulars, which did not exist for all, but it will appear, that they received in this book. their rightful place and title as "Defenders of their Country," which in my estimation is equivalent to the highest honor any history or historian can bestow.


A renewed and protracted revision of the Census List of "Soldiers of Late War" has led to the following additions to the "List of Soldiers now residing in, but not furnished by Buffalo County :"


Mengelt, Geo., Private, Comp. G, 9th Wisconsin; Sanford, E. C., Private, 9th Battery Wisconsin Light Artillery; Schachner, Frank, Private, Comp. K, 2d Illinois Artillery; Schwedes, Chris- topher, Sergeant, Comp. C, 2d Virginia Mounted Infantry; Sever- son, S. T., Comp. K, 3d Wisconsin; Spring, J. B., Comp. B, United States Regulars; Short, Peter, Comp. E, 17th Wisconsin.

LIST OF EARLY SETTLERS.


LIST OF EARLY SETTLERS.


There is a chapter on Early Settlers and Pioneers, in which reminiscences are given of the early times of this county, when it was quite young and just began to try standing on its own legs. In that chapter biographies of some of the pioneers were given,. but this practice can not be extended to every one, nor can the enumeration of early settlers be indefinitely extended down to the. present time. As the limit must be drawn somewhere, I set it. down at the year 1865, which is about 25 years after the first known settlement, and 11 years after the actual organization of the county. It may be permissible to say something about the diffi- culties encountered in collecting the names and a few particulars with each, and the methods employed in this collection. Not a few of the older settlers have died, some without leaving families or relations, others have moved away to unknown places, and although they are not really forgotten, it is often impossible to learn anything of their birthplace, their precise time of settlement, their occupation or their present residence. It would at the first first glance appear very easy to collect. the. names and desirable particulars of those who are alive and, still residing here, but in fact this was a difficult and often a provoking enterprise. It was impossible for me or any one person , to make personal calls upon everybody, and in these times of universal education it might reasonably be supposed that a blank with the necessary sugges- tions would in most cases be filled out and returned, especially as the purpose of this blank had been explained in English and in German in the papers published in the county. Accordingly such. blanks were sent out, sometimes with the request of depositing them at some store or office where their recipients would be sure to call. This plan did but seldom work well, and other expedients had to be thought of. Some friends. were requested to lend their L assistance and I am under obligations to the following gentlemen in this matter:


558


LIST OF EARLY SETTLERS.


Leonhard Fried, Gottlieb Bohri and Louis G. Barth of the Town of Cross, Martin Schulte of Buffalo, Geo. Schuster of Foun- tain City, Mayor Nic. Weinandy of Buffalo City, Mr. Geo. Harper of Waumandee, Christ. Kindschi of Montana, Allen H. De Groff and Erich Alme of Misha Mokwa; also to Geo. E. Gilke of Gil- manton, to Mrs. Claflin of the same town, and to W. W. Wyman, and Elder B. F. Morse of Mondovi.


Of course, I had a good opportunity for collecting material of this kind myself at Alma, and was assisted by an extensive personal acquaintance, and by the frequent visits of people from all parts of the county to the capital of it.


As above indicated, this list is not intended as a biographical sketch of each person entered in it, but as a record of those who happened to make their home in this county during the period of its incipiency and development, whether they are here yet, or have departed. There was in the blanks a call for "Other Re- marks," which have sometimes been made and oftener omitted. As the list must for obvious reasons assume a tabulary form, there will be a close uniformity in regard to the entries made in it. Re- marks of some particular importance will be brought in an ap- pendix, connected with the names of the persons having made such remarks.


For convenience and perspicuity I have divided the subject into four classes:


1. From 1839 to 1855 inclusive. 2. 1856 “ 1860 do. 3. 1861 " 1865 do.


4. After 1865, which contains names accidentally reported beyond the limit above mentioned.


With regard to the table itself it will be noticed that some abbreviations have been used, especially as to the name of coun- tries that figure in the column of birthplaces. These abbrevia- tions are frequently not omissions of letters, but of words, for ins- tance instead of "Grand Duchy of Baden" I shall say "Baden," instead of Kingdom of Prussia, Bavaria, Wuertemberg etc., only the name of the country will appear. With regard to Switzerland I prefer to give the name of the canton, abbreviated Cnt., with its name. The birthplace of Americans, if known, will be given by the name of the state, otherwise by United States. With regard

APPENDIX to


the list of the "First Class" of Early Settlers.


This Appendix is intended to contain Special Remarks made by settlers who have reported. Such remarks were solicited with the understanding that they should be short, and that I reserved the privilege of condensing and remodeling, or of leaving them out altogether. Of this privilege I intend to make but limited use and I suppose the authors of remarks will recognize them again when they see them in the book.


Some persons have expressed a desire that I should make these remarks, saying that I could do it better and knew all about it. I protest; for although I might know some points suitable for presentation, I do not mean to become responsible for the per. formance implied. What a man does not care to say himself, I do not care to say for him. The appendix will be arranged alpha- betically.
