• Notes

  Jefferson's father, William, was a farmer. He moved with his family in 1847 from Pennsylvania to Wisconsin. Jefferson was reared on the farm and received his education in common schools. Starting out in moderate circumstances, he began farming and by hard work, good judgment and a fortunate combination of circumstances came to own 900 acres of choice farm land in Green county and a number of houses and lots in Juda. He was considered one of the leading farmers of the county. He was a staunch Democrat and a faithful member of the Baptist Church.
