  • What Will Happen to Knapp House, the Original Wisconsin Governor's Mansion? - Isthmus
    11/19/2014 What will happen to Knapp house, the original Wisconsin governor's mansion? - Isthmus ISTHMUS What will happen to Knapp house, the original Wisconsin governor's mansion? State officials mum on plans for historic landmark by on Tuesday 11/18/2014 1:08 pm The future of the Wisconsin governor's mansion is in doubt. Not the current one, where 14 governors have lived. It's the earlier one, home to 18 governors from 1883 to 1950, that is a few blocks from the Capitol. The mansion may be sold by the Wisconsin Department of Administration, but officials have been vague about what they're considering. The potential sale has some fretting about the landmark's future. "It's such an important piece of the city's history, and the land around it is significant in that history," says Ald. Ledell Zellers, whose district includes the mansion. The mansion, 130 E. Gilman St., is on the National Register of Historic Places. The date of its completion is unknown, perhaps as early as 1854. At the time, the entire UW consisted of North Hall. Madison was two years from incorporating as a city. For many years the home was jokingly called "The White House" for its first owner, Julius White, later a Civil War general. Officially, it was the "Executive Residence," named by Belle Case La Follette, wife of governor and later U.S. Sen. Bob La Follette. She felt the term "mansion" distanced the public. The property totals 63,462 square feet. In 1950 the state transferred the property to the UW Board of Regents for $60,000, drawn from a UW trust fund created by Kemper Knapp.

  • Knapp Graduate Center
    KNAPP GRADUATE CENTER Fig. 1. The Knapp Graduate Center in 1957. The wrap around porch was removed and the smaller current porch was built in the mid-1960s. [series 9/2, Knapp Graduate Center, ns-1512] The Knapp Graduate Center was built in 1854 as a private residence by Julius White. In the next 30 years the house was the home of several socially promi- nent Madison families. The house served as the state governor's mansion from 1885 to 1950. In 1950 the house was sold to the University and became the Knapp Graduate Center. n 1854 the prominent businessman and legislator, Julius T. White1 and his wife Catherine built one of the first mansions of local sandstone on what became known as Mansion Hill. He selected Ithe site "for its magnificent elms and its view of Lake Mendota below." He purchased almost the entire block, from real estate dealer George Delaplaine, believing that it would become a desirable residential area.2 White was an art collector and had a leading role in the artistic and social life of Madison until his departure in 1857. White sold the house to George and Emeline Delaplaine from whom he had originally purchased the land. The Delaplaines followed White's habit of lavish and frequent parties and entertainments (with notable guests such as Horace Greeley) for more than a decade. In 1868 they sold the house to J. G. Thorp3 and his socially ambitious wife Amelia Chapman Thorp, a newly wealthy couple, for $18,000. The Thorps came from Eau Claire where they had compiled a fortune in the lumber business, but felt socially constrained.

  • Hezekiah Thomas Civil War Engagements on February 25 1862 Hezekiah Enrolled for a Three Year Service at Mt. Carmel Illinois in C
    Hezekiah Thomas Civil War Engagements On February 25th 1862 Hezekiah enrolled for a three year service at Mt. Carmel Illinois in Company C of the Illinois, 12th Regiment Calvary (Volunteers), commanded by Captain S. Branson. 1 Hezekiah mustered-in as a private February 28th 1862 at Springfield Illinois. 2 The companies of the 12th were commanded by Colonel Arno Voss, and the executive officer, Lieutenant Colonel Hasbrouck Davis. As the companies were being organized, the regiment went into training at Camp Douglas near Chicago. Not long afterward the companies were sent to Camp Butler, six miles from Springfield Illinois. It would be at Camp Butler were the men would be schooled and trained to become a soldier. The 12th would also improve their organization by forming platoons and battalions, and re-organizing their companies. In 1860 Hezekiah lived in Sterling, Whiteside County Illinois. He travelled 326 miles south to enlist in Mt Carmel, Wabash County Illinois. Wabash was not represented in the makeup of the Illinois counties, but Hezekiah was assigned to Company C. As spring approached the 12th began to receive equipment, and horses began to arrive. By the end of spring each man was issued a horse, and except for their carbine rifles they were fully equipped. On March 13th 1862 the 12th Illinois were attached to the Army of the Potomac; 1st Army Corp (Brigade), 2nd Division, as the 12th Army Corps was being organized. The next month, April 1862, Hezekiah’s wife, Elizabeth, and the children returned to Luzerne County Pennsylvania. This would be the last time Hezekiah would see his family, because on June 25th 1862 the 12th Illinois was ordered from Camp Butler in Illinois to Martinsburg, West Virginia.
