About Asa McCollum
http://www.usgennet.org/usa/wi/county/richland/books/06bios-m.htm#M2
ASA McCOLLUM was the first doctor at Sextonville. He was born in that part of the Northwest Territory, where is now the town of Windsor, Morgan county, O. His father was born in Scotland and brought to America by his parents when five years old, they settling in North Carolina, where he grew to manhood. He was a stirring patriot of that day and enlisted during the Revolutionary War in the American army, was taken prisoner by the English forces and sent to Nova Scotia, where he remained for some time. After he was liberated he was married to Lucy Fordyce, a native of Massachusetts, whose parents were loyal to the crown, and during the war had emigrated to Nova Scotia. After his marriage he returned to the states and immediately started for the Northwest Territory. At that time there was considerable trouble with the Indians and he and his wife consequently stopped at. Redstone, now Brownsville, east of the Alleghenies, three or four years, until the Indian difficulties were in a measure settled, and the red men were for a time more peaceable, and Mr. McCollum and wife then moved on and settled in the Northwest Territory as before stated. Asa McCollum made his home with his parents until eleven years old, when his father proposed to give him his time summers, and he could attend school winters, to which he agreed. He remained in that section of the country until eighteen years old, then joined an older brother in Illinois and engaged with him in surveying and farming three years, when his brother built a tavern in Vandalia. Asa continued to live with his brother one year longer and then returned to Ohio and engaged with another brother in a cabinet manufactory. They carried on that business there three years, when Asa sold out and went to Massachusetts, locating in Worcester county, where he commenced to work as a carpenter and joiner, and later as contractor and builder. There his health failed, and going to Boston he entered an infirmary, where he was located during the cholera epidemic. As soon as lie was able he was employed as an assistant, and there he commenced the study of medicine, not theoretically under an M. D., but practically amid actual surroundings, which gave him very valuable experience. He returned to Leicester, Worcester county, and soon thereafter a child in the neighborhood was stricken with that dreadful disease, cholera, and he was called upon to prescribe. This was his first case and in it he was successful. He soon afterward erected a large building, opened an infirmary, and there continued the practice of medicine until 1848, when lie came to Wisconsin and located at Fayette, in Lafayette county, practicing medicine there until 1851, when he came to Richland county and purchased land adjoining the village plat of Sextonville, and immediately commenced the practice of his chosen profession. In 1858 he purchased a drug-store and subsequently followed that business, being at the time of his death the oldest druggist in the state. Asa McCollum was born on Oct. 10, 1801, and died on Dec. 2, I891. He was married in 1828 to Miss Hadassap Kingsbury, who was born in that part of Oxford, now known as Webster, Worcester county, Mass., Sept. 10, 1802, and she died Mar. 23, 1897. They became the parents of six children: Lucy married Spencer Ellsworth and resides at Lacon, Ill.; Lauraine married Charles Shellenger; Van Buren, born June 7, 1835, died June 7, 1899, and is buried at Duncan's Mills, Cal.; Curtis; Julien Lee Roy, and Lewis Cass. As a physician, Asa McCollum belonged to the reformed botanical school. Politically he adhered to Democracy as it was before the days of the Civil War, but he never voted for a president after Buchanan, and was not in sympathy with the Democratic organization as it existed in postbellum days. Hon. Julien Lee Roy McCollum, son of Asa and Hadassap (Kingsbury) McCollum, was born in the town of Leicester, Worcester county, Mass., Jan. 4., 1842. He was but six years old when his parents emigrated to Wisconsin, and nine years old when they came to Richland county. Soon after their arrival here he went to Wiota, Lafayette county, to live with a brother-in-law, who was engaged in mercantile trade, and a short time thereafter accompanied the latter to Elkader, Ia. In both of these places he attended the public schools and assisted his brother-in-law in the store, and later attended Bryant & Stratton's business college in Chicago, from which institution he graduated and received a diploma. The instruction thus received was afterward supplemented by a course of study in the Sextonville high school, of which he was among the first graduates. When twenty-one- years old he engaged in the mercantile trade in company with A. H. Krouskop, near the mill in the town of Ithaca. In 1865 he went to; Lone Rock, where he followed the same business and dealt in live stock quite extensively. In 1877 he settled on his present farm, located in the Pine river valley, on section 12, town 9, range 1 east, now included in the town of Buena Vista. This is one of the model farms of the county, is under a high state of cultivation, and has upon it excellent improvements. For years Mr. McCollum was engaged in raising grain and stock and in dealing in live stock and railroad, ties. He was married in 1864 to Eliza, daughter of Jacob and Elizabeth (McCloud) Krouskop, and three children have blessed that union - Charles L., Dock C. and Elmer E. Mr. McCollum is a prominent man among the best class of Richland county citizens, and was elected to the assembly in 1875 and 1876, serving the people faithfully. He was also a delegate from his congressional district in the Democratic national convention of 1884. Elmer E. McCollum, the youngest son of Hon. J. L. R. McCollum, was born near the gristmill in the town of Buena Vista, Richland county, Wis., on Apr. 26, 1870. He was reared at the place of his birth and was educated in the Sextonville high school, after which he took a course in the Northern Indiana Normal at Valparaiso, Ind. He commenced his independent career in 1889 by purchasing his brother's interest in the mercantile business that was being conducted under the firm name of J. L. McCollum & Co., and in 1903 he purchased his father's interest in the same, thus becoming the sole proprietor. He has the only store in the village of Twin Bluffs, and carries a general line of merchandise, suitable to the community, and also buys produce, railroad ties, etc. For the past sixteen years he has served as postmaster at Twin Bluffs. Mr. McCollum was married on May 20, 1896, to Miss Lela Pease, a daughter of Dexter Pease, a prominent citizen of Richland Center, and to this union there has been born one child- Everett Elmer, born in 1901. Mr. McCollum is a member of the Masonic lodge at Richland Center, the Modern Woodmen of America at Twin Bluffs, and the I. O. O. F. at Sextonville.

His father, Asa McCollom, was the first doctor at Sextonville. He was born in that part of the northeastern territory, now the town of Windsor, Morgan Co., Ohio. His father, the grandfather of the subject of this sketch, was born in Scotland and brought to America by his parents when five years old, and settled in North Carolina, where he grew to manhood. He was a stirring patriot of that day and enlisted during the War for Independence in the American army. Was taken prisoner by the English forces and sent to Nova Scotia, where he remained for some time. After he was liberated he was married to Lucy Fordyce, a native of Massachusetts. Her parents were loyal to the Crown, and during the war had emigrated to Nova Scotia. After his marriage he returned to the States and immediately started for the northwestern territory. At that time there was considerable trouble with the Indians and they consequently stopped at Redstone, now Brownsville, east of the Alleghanies, three or four years or until the Indian difficulties were in a measure settled, and they were for a time more peaceable, when they moved on and settled in the northwestern territory as before stated. Asa, the father of the subject of our sketch, made his home with his parents until eleven years old, when his father proposed to give him his time summers, and he could attend school winters, to which he agreed. He remained in that section of the county until eighteen years old, then joined an older brother in Illinois, and engaged with him surveying and farming three years, when his brother built a tavern in Vandalia.

Here his health failed, and going to Boston, he entered an infirmary, and was there during the cholera epidemic. As soon as he was able, he was employed as an assistant, and here he commenced the study of medicine, not theoretically, under an MD, but practically amid actual surroundings, which gave him an experience very valuable and superior to any school. Soon after his return to Leicester, a child in the neighborhood was stricken with that dreadful disease, cholera, and he was called upon to prescribe. This was his first case, and in it he was successful. He soon afterward erected a large building, opened an infirmary, and there continued the practice of medicine until 1848, when he came to Wisconsin and located at Fayette, in La Fayette county, practicing medicine there until 1851, when he came to Richland county and purchased land adjoining the village plat of Sextonville, and immediately commenced the practice of his chosen profession.

He was married in 1828 to Hadassap Kingsbury, who was born in that part of Oxford, now known as Webster, Worcester Co., Mass., Sept. 10, 1802. They have six children --- Lucy, now the wife of Spencer Ellsworth, now living in Lacon, Ill.; Lauraine, now the wife of Charles Schellenger; Van Buren, Curtis, Julien Lee Roy and Lewis Cass. As an MD he belongs to the reformed botanical school. Politically he adheres to the democracy as it was, but has not voted for a President since Buchanan, and is not in sympathy with that organization as it at present exists.
