William Morgan Brewster, one Of tt Q
pioneers of Wisconsin, was born July
z, 1923. near Utica, New York. In a
family of ten children he was next to
the youngest, the youngest sister dying
at the age of twelve. When he was
seven years old the family moved to
Plymouth, Indiana where in 1888 the
father died. Several years later they
moved to Racine, Wis.,, and in l843
came to Ssuk county settling on farm
near Skillet Creek.
In 1916 Mr Brewster married Lavina
Frye. After several years residence On
the bluffs south of Baraboo, they bought
a farm southeast of town where they
made their home for over thirty years.
In 1882 they moved into Baraboo and
bought littls home on Eighth street
where they resided until Mrs. Brewster
died in 1899. Since that time Mr. Brews-
ter has made his home with his son,
Charles, on Oak street.
To MIR. and Mrs. Brewster four sons
were born, enc Of whom died in infancy.
William. the oldest son, died in 1913 nj
Cameron, Mo-, George lives at Chip
pewa Falls and Charles has always been
a resident of Baraboo.
MIR. Brewster was quiet genial man
very thoughtful Of others and possessed
of keen sense of right and wrong. An
old neighbor recently said: HE old neigh
bors always liked Mr.. Brewster. I'VE
always knew, no matter what happened
he would do what was right" Everyone
found him anxious to be fair and just.
He had good memory and it was a
pleasure to hear him tell of the great
changes he had witnessed. He saw
Baraboo grow from heavily wooded
valley cont aiming but one little store
and postoffice into the beautiful city
it is today. Log houses which he knew
we'll how to build have given place to
modern houses with all their conven-
fences. Electric and gas lights have
taken the place of tallow candles. while
the old fashioned fire places have given
way to the more comfortable furnaces.
Telegraph lines and telephones lines
made neighbors of people separated by
many miles. Ok teams which were the
common mode of travel in the early
days of Sank county have been replaced
by autos and locomotives. Public roads
nave developed from narrow rocky
trails into paved highways. The pio-
neer farmer who did all his seeding and
harvesting by hand now sees most of
the farm work done by machinery.
1t is wonderful thing to be able to
ook back over ninety three years of
