Description:Excerpt from A Biographical Sketch of Hon.: Charles H. LarrabeeFew men were more prominently connected with public affairs, or better personally known, in Wisconsin, from 18t7 to 1864, than the subject of this sketch - a member of the Convention that formed our Constitution, a Circuit Judge, and, ex-oficz'o, a J as tice of the Supreme Court an unsuccessful candidate for Chief Justice a prominent member of Congress a volunteer in the ranks at the out-break of our civil war, then a Lieutenant, a Major, and finally a Colonel; conducting himself with zeal and credit in four engagements, namely, the affairs at Lewinsville and Lee's Mills, and the battles of Williamsburg, and Perryville or Chaplin Hills. These long and useful services, civil and mili tary, in behalf of Wisconsin, and, in part, in behalf of the Union, deserve a fitting record.Charles Hathaway Larrabee was born at Rome, Oneida County, N. Y., Nov. 9th, 1820. His father, Maj. Charles Larrabee, of the U. S. Army, was a native of Connecticut, descending from a Huguenot clergyman, who escaped from St. Bartholomew's mas sacre, in France, and migrated to the New World with a few of his surviving ﬂock. About the middle of the seventeenth cen tury, we find Greenfield Larrabee settled at Saybrook, Connec ticut. Maj. Charles Larrabee commanded a company under Gen. Harrison at Tippecanoe, receiving his commander's special notice for his good service in that notable engagement with the Indians; and, at the battle of Brownstown, in August, 1812, he lost an arm while managing the artillery. In the maternal line, the subject of this notice descended from John Haynes, Colonial Governor, first of Massachusetts, and then of Connecticut; his mother's father.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
