| Notes |
- From "Some of the Ancestors and Descendants of Samuel Converse, Jr." page 113: "Laura S. Goodrich, born in Rodman, N.Y., 20 Jan. 1832; married, 12 March 1850, William C. Dawes, who was born in Peasmarch, Sussex Co., Eng., 14 Nov. 1817, and came to this country with his parents in 1829. Mr. and Mrs. Dawes lived in Cape Vincent, N. Y., until spring of 1864, when they moved to Waterloo, Wis. In 1890 they were living in Pittsville, Wis. They had fourteen children:"
From a hand written letter in the possession of Marian DIBBLE Williams (1992): "Wm C. Dawes sailed from Rye Old England March 28th 1830 for the United States arrived in New York on the eleventh day of April 1830 at the age of 13 years." On side of this paper he has written: "I cannot see God, But God can see me."
From "History of Wood County" page 668 and 669: "William was a native of England and came to the United States when 12 years old, his family settling at Cape Vincent, New York where William C. was raised. The mother was of Holland Dutch descent. Mr. and Mrs. William C. Dawes came to Wisconsin in 1863 and settled at Waterloo, where the father followed the trade of miller until 1876. In which year they came to Wood County, driving overland with a team of oxen. Here they purchased 80 acres of heavily timbered land in Section 24, of Wood Township. The country was a most primitive one at that time. The Dawes family on first coming lived in an old logging shanty while the father and sons made a clearing and hewed logs for a more commodious, if not less primitive residence. This structure, when completed, was roofed with home-made shingles after it was converted into a frame house. The family of pioneers set to work to clear the land, the age-old battle of the pioneer; there were hardships on every hand, and the task before them was a formidable one. Gradually, however, they accomplished it and from their efforts there emerged a fine agricultural property. This place was the home of the father and mother for the remainder of their lives."
