Daniels, William N., M. D. (3 December 1845 - 19??)

William N. Daniels, M. D. who, for twenty-nine years has engaged in the practice of medicine at Mosinee, Wis., of which he is postmaster, is well known over Marathon County and has been a resident of this state since he was ten years old. He was born at Mellenville, Columbia County N. Y. December 3, 1845 and accompanied his parents to Northern Wisconsin in 1855.

Dr. Daniels easily recalls the old log school houses in which he received his rather meager educational training prior to enlisting for service in the Civil War. He was only seventeen years old when he became a member of Co. I, 3rd Wis. Vol. Cav., and three years later, on October 12, 1865, he was honorably discharged. He then turned his attention to the study of medicine, for some time being a student under Dr. Emory Stansbury of Appleton, Wis., later entering Rush Medical College, Chicago, where he was graduated in 1878, six years later establishing himself at Mosinee, where he is entrenched in the affections of the people and enjoys the confidence of his professional brethren and fellow citizens generally. For a number of years he was physician for some of the railroad systems but in later years has confined himself professionally to the demands of his very large private practice.

Dr. Daniels was married June 26, 1866, to Miss Jane S. Leach, who died February 26, 1903, the mother of two children: William C, who lived but four years; and Edna J., who passed away in early womanhood. On May 19, 1904, Dr. Daniels was married (second) to Miss Hattie M. Kettring of Minneapolis, Minn. In his political views Dr. Daniels is a Republican. While never an ardent politician he has, from youth, been loyal and patriotic, and takes a deep interest in all the changing movements which determine the progress of the country he gave three years of his young life to keep united.
