Notes:

Name:
William D. B. Pyncheon was born in Shoreham, VT on June 14, 1812. He removed in boyhood to Ticonderoga, NY where he resided till he was grown up, when he removed to Marengo, in the same state. He was married to Mary Slauson on March 17, 1830. Of the 6 children born to them (two boys and four girls) four survive; Mrs. R. H. Marks of Nebraska, Mrs. F. A. Gibbons of Mankato, MN, Mrs. J. Wolf of the township and Mrs. Amos DeLine of Sun Prairie. In the summer of 1856 he removed to Sun Prairie township, where he resided 2 or 3 years, and thence to Sun Prairie, where he has since resided, with the exception of a few years spent on a farm near Jefferson, in this state, and one at Arlington near Lodi. In early manhood, he was severely injured by a heavy timber, from which he never fully recovered. His trade was that of a blacksmith. More than 20 years since, he made a public profession of religion, and united with the Congregational Church. Three years ago, his mind, already growing feeble by reason of age and debility, he became seriously impaired by an attack of LaGrippe, since which he has been subject to melancholy and has often expressed a wish for death. Not long before his death, he was overhead, by a member of the family, earnestly pleading with his Heavenly Father that he might be allowed to lay down a life so sad, and to "go home."
