And Surgeon In Knightstown After The Civil War

William Brown McGavran was born October 25, 1828, near CarroUton. the county seat of Carroll County, Ohio. His parents were Thomas and Marg^aret (Brown) McGavran, who were old settlers of Carroll County. To them were born four children, of whom the subject of this sketch was the eldest. During the latter's boyhood days he attended the schools of CarroUton, where he obtained a solid, fundamental education. At the age of nineteen years, he commenced the study of medicine under the tutelage of Dr. John S. Hunter, with whom he continued to study until he was twenty two years of age, when he began attendance at the Cleveland Medical College, Qeveland, Ohio, in 1851-2. After leaving the College, he commenced the practice of medicine at New Rumley, Harrison County, Ohio, about eight miles from Cadiz, the county seat of that county. Dr. ^McGavran remained at New Rimiley for a period of two years and then moved to Kilgore, Carroll County, Ohio, about ten miles from his old home, and there continued in the active practice of his profession until called to enter the service of his country during the late Civil War. Impelled b}- a stern sense of duty, he abandoned the quiet life of the country physician to exercise his art amid the scenes of civil strife. He was appointed and commissioned Assistant Surgeon of the 26th Ohio Infantry, March 12, 1863, and immediately joined his regiment at Murfreesboro, Tennessee. He afterwards. May 11, 1863, received his commission as Surgeon of the same regiment. At this period the 26th Ohio Infantry was attached to General George D. Wagner's brigade. Wood's division, Crittenden's corps, Army of the Cumberland. Other regiments belonging to this brigade were the 40th and 57th Indiana Infantry, the 13th Michigan Infantry and the looth Illinois Infantry.

Dr. McGavran served throughout the Tullahoma Campaign and the Campaign to Chattanooga, and was with his regiment on the 19th and 20th of September, during the bloody battle of Chickamauga. When the Federal troops, on the night of September 20. were driven back to Chattanooga. Dr. McGavran remained on the battlefield, then in possession of the victorious Confederates, to administer needed relief to the wounded of his brigade and division. He remained on the field until October i, in charge of the hospital tent and about one hundred Federal soldiers. About this time the Confederates sent the wounded to Chattanooga on parole and Dr. McGavran was sent to Richmond. A^irginia, as a prisoner of war. Along with others he was confined in a box car, on the journey, and after reaching Richmond was sent to Libby Prison, where he remained until November 24, when he and several other surgeons were exchanged. After his release from the Confederate prison, Dr. McGavran went to Fortress ]Monroe and thence to Washington City and thence home on furlough. After an absence ^ of three months and a half, in all, he rejoined his regiment at Chattanooga, January 4, 1864.

Atlanta and during much of the time was Acting Brigade Surgeon. At Resaca, Georgia, on the 14th day of May, 1864, he gave medical and surgical aid and attention to the late Colonel George W. Lennard, of the 57th Indiana Infantry, after the latter was wounded, and he was with Colonel Lennard when he died.. To Dr. McGavran and other comrades, the death of the brave and gallant Lennard was a severe shock. During this campaign, Dr. McGavran participated in all the marches, skirmishes and battles of his regiment until the fall of Atlanta, the Confederate stronghold in Georgia, September 2, 1864. At that point, on account of failing health, he was furloughed home. After remaining at home for a time, his health had not improved and he resigned from the army, September 19, 1864. Soon afterwards, at the special request of the Surgeon General of the Army, he went to Chicago, Illinois, as one of the physicians and surgeons at Camp Douglas, where a large number of Confederate prisoners were confined. Here Dr. McGavran had charge and control of two wa^'Js and remained on this duty until June, 1865. The end of the war had comt and he resigned and went to Scio, Harrison County, Ohio, where his family had made their home during his absence at the front.

In September, 1865, after the close of the Civil War. Dr. McGavran moved to Knightstown, Indiana, where he has since continued to reside. He was for several years superintendent of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Orphans' Home, near Knightstown, and for a number of years was examining surgeon for the Bureau of Pensions with his office located at 'Knightstown. He continued the practice of medicine and surgery until 1895 when he retired from the active pursuit of his chosen profession in which he had gained honor and distinction.

Dr. McGavran has, during his whole life, been a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church and an earnest and hearty worker in the interests of that large denomination. For a period of thirty years, he has been a member of Knightstown Lodge, No. 99, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, also a member of the the Grand Lodge and the Grand Encampment, of Indiana, of the same order. He is a member of the Jerry B. Mason Post, No. 168, Grand Armv of the Republic, Knightstown, of which he is a past commander and of which, for many years, both before and since being commander, he has been Post Chaplain.

Dr. McGavran has been twice married. First, to Ann Eliza Deming of Scio, Harrison County, Ohio, March 25, 1852. She died at Knightstown, March i, 1886. Second, to Mrs. Rachel M. Niblock nee Rutan at Carrollton, Carroll County, Ohio, January 25, 1888.

Dr. and Mrs. McGavran are pioneer workers in the Winona Lake Assembly, located near Warsaw, Indiana, where they have a cottage and spend their Summers. They were the first persons from Knightstown to become identified with that delightful Christian Summer resort.

Ohio has sent many noble sons and daughters to Henry County, where, identified in spirit and feeling with their fellow citizens, they have been valuable factors in the up-building of the community, but none have exerted greater moral or material influence than Dr. ]\IcGavran. Full of years and esteemed by the community in which the best part of his life has been passed, he now rests content with the honor and dignity of a successful life.
