Biography
"NANCY ENDICOTT WHITING, my mother, was born March 29, 1821, and died June 21, 1892. She was married to William Davis, April 5, 1840 [from a different source April 2, 1840, Indiana State Library Genealogy Division, Indiana Marriages Through 1850], at Cynthiana, Indiana. Father was born February 27, 1818, and died November 1, 1885. The family removed from Cynthiana, Indiana, 1855, to Francisco, Indiana, locating on a farm adjoining the town, where they resided for nearly twenty years. He always took a lively interest in everything that was for the upbuilding and betterment of Francisco, Gibson county and the state of Indiana. He deeded from his farm to Francisco, free of charge, a plot of ground for a cemetery, where are buried many of the early pioneers and some of the family relatives. There were eleven children in the family, four sons and seven daughters. This family of children remained unbroken by death for a period of fifty-one years, the first, Sarah Ellen, the oldest, dying in 1911.
"In 1873, the family emigrated to Nebraska, myself and Brother John preceeding the rest of the family, four years, settling near Wahoo, the others upon lands near Weston. The town of Weston is surveyed from land owned by father and others of the family. He built the first school house in Weston with his own personal money, before the organization of the school district, and William T. Mauck, a grandson, taught the first three months term of school in the new building, receiving therefor $25 per month. As he did at Francisco, Indiana, his former home, father donated from his land a large plot of ground for a cemetery at Weston, in which he and mother and many of the family relatives have their last resting place.
"Father and I enlisted in company A, 58th Regiment, Indiana Volunteers, October 9, 1861. I served until the close of the war. Father was Captain of the company, was severly wounded at Chickamauga September 19, 1863. Among others of the wounded he was taken prisoner, afterwards paroled, not being able to see any more active service during the war. He never fully recovered from the effects of his wounds and, although he lived for quite a number of years thereafter, that hastened his death. When mustered out as Captain of Company A, he was succeeded by Uncle Charles C. Whiting.
"The eleven children of our family are as follows: Sarah Ellen, Ann Victoria, Joseph Newton, Susan Caroline, Mary Virginia, John Wesley, Charlotte Lavina, Charles Whiting, James Noble, Permelia Adelaide and Cora Jane."[1]
