WILLIAM T. DAVASHER was born February
23, 1837, in the eastern part of Allen County, Ky. He is the second of six boys
and three girls born to William and Elizabeth (Calvert) Davasher, natives of
Virginia and Allen County, Ky. Mr. Davasher was a blacksmith by trade;
immigrated to Allen County, Ky., when a lad of nine years with his parents,
stopping in Tennessee one year. He owned a farm of 600 acres, also a number of
negroes; he died in 1876, at the age of seventy-two years. He was a son of John
C. Davasher, who was brought from Germany when a child, and who was one of the
patriots in the war of 1812; was in the battle of New Orleans; was a blacksmith
by trade, and owned several slaves. John C. was a son of Joseph Davasher, who
arrived in America about the beginning of the Revolutionary war, and settled
near Richmond, Va.; was in America but a few days before the declaration of
Independence; he immediately enlisted, and served all through the war; as a
lieutenant he was with Francis Marion. He had been an ensign in the German Army
for seven years. He immigrated to Maury County, Tenn., about 1810 or 1812,
where he engaged in farming until his death; a gold watch carried by his
great-grandfather all through his seven years' service in the German Army and
through the entire Revolutionary war, is still in possession of a brother of
the subject of this sketch. The mother of our subject is a daughter of John and
Jane (Russell) Calvert, who came from North Carolina, and settled on Long
Creek, Allen County, about 1805, where they entered and improved lands. John
Calvert was a soldier of 1812, and was in the battle of New Orleans; was a
farmer, and died at the age of seventy-two in 1855; he was of Irish desent, and
was a son of Frank Calvert, who also came from South Carolina to Allen County
in an early day, and settled on Long Creek. His latter days were spent on
Middle Fork; he died at an advanced age. William T. Davasher received his early
training at home on the farm. He remained with his parents until his marriage,
September 8, 1857, to Minerva Glover, of Allen County, and a native of
Benton County, Mo.; she was a daughter of Richard B. and Jane (Calvert)
Glover, who were born and reared in Allen County. Her father was a farmer,
and a son of Richard Glover, who married Docia Gatewood. To Mr. and Mrs.
Davasher were born eight children, four of whom are now living: William
Richard, Theron W., Luther Asbury and Micaja Duke. His wife died December 9,
1884, aged forty-eight years, a devoted member of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
and a kind, Christian woman. Mr. Davasher, after his marriage, located on the
farm he now owns of 223 acres, eighty of which are cleared and in a good state
of cultivation. He also owns a mill on the river near where he resides, and
one-half interest in eighty acres of improved land in Benton County, Mo., which
he has inherited. He has been very successful during life, accumulating what he
has by his own industry. He was ordained an elder in the Baptist Church in 1873
by Elders Carter and Evens; has been preaching more or less ever since. He has
been justice of his precinct for five years. Being a strong Union man, and
possessing that patriotic spirit instilled in him by his progenitors, he
enlisted to maintain the Union in October, 1861, in Company K, Ninth Kentucky
Infantry. He started out as a sergeant; was in the battle of Shiloh, where all
his officers were killed or wounded; was taken sick, and sent to St. Louis
Hospital, and November 30, 1862, was discharged from the service. He returned
to his home, and as soon as able engaged in farming. In politics he is a
Democrat and cast his first presidential vote for Gen. MacClellan.
