  WILLIAM G. JAMISON, a progressive, well-to-do agriculturist and land owner of Greenville township, who is giving particular attention to the breeding of high-grade live stock, was born at Springfield, Illinois, February 7, 1858, and is a son of Robert and Ann (Ralston) Jamison, natives of Jefferson county, Indiana, where the father was born December 19, 1836, and the mother December 25, 1837. In his early life Robert Jamison was a contractor and builder, and after his marriage went to Springfield, Illinois, where he died shortly afterward, in July, 1858. William G. Jamison was the only child of his parents, but there were six children born to his mother's second marriage to David Culbertson, of Jefferson county, Indiana, whence she had returned after the death of her first husband. She now resides at Marion, Indiana. William G. Jamison received his education in the public schools and the Normal school at Danville, Indiana, and he remained with his mother until twenty-one years of age, at which time he went to Neenah, Wisconsin, and for six years thereafter worked at the millwright trade. He then purchased eighty acres of land in Greenville township and engaged in farming, operating his land in a general way until 1897, and in that year became interested in the breeding of pure Guernsey cattle. He started with a pure-bred sire, later adding a number of dams, and he now has a herd of about twenty pure-bred stock, and in addition keeps about fifty head of high-grade cattle. In the fall of 1909 he added another farm of 160 acres, which he has thoroughly equipped for the business, and he devotes his entire attention to his interests. He is a member of the various stock breeders' associations, and is known as an excellent judge of cattle. Fraternally, he is connected wth the Modern Woodmen of Greenville; in political matters he is a Republican, and his religious connections are with the old Scotch United Presbyterian Church. In March, 1885, Mr. Jamison was united in marriage with Miss Ella Culbertson, who was born in Hortonville, Outagamie county, February 2, 1861, daughter of James and Abbie (Wickwire) Culbertson, the former a native of Jefferson county, Indiana, and the latter of Nova Scotia. Mrs. Jamison was an only child. Mr. and Mrs. Jamison have had eight children: Alice B., a stenographer, residing at Antigo; Robert; Clarence; Russell, who died in infancy; and Harvey, Stanley, Howard and Lida, residing at home.
