==Early life and career==
Daniel C. Govan was born in Northampton County, North Carolina.〔Eicher, p. 260. Born on either July 4, 1827 or July 4, 1829.〕 His father was U.S. Representative Andrew R. Govan from South Carolina, who in 1832 relocated the family to Marshall County, Mississippi, where he was raised. Govan received his primary education from private tutoring and then attended South Carolina College (modern day University of South Carolina) graduating in 1848.〔Wakelyn, pp. 206-7.〕
Govan participated in the 1849 California Gold Rush along with his cousin Benjamin McCulloch, who would also become a Confederate general.〔Warner, 112.〕 In 1850 Govan was elected deputy sheriff of Sacramento, and two years later he returned to Mississippi and took up work as a planter. In December 1853 Govan married Mary Fogg Otey, the daughter of prominent theologian James Hervey Otey, with whom he would have 14 children. In 1860 he moved to Helena, Arkansas, and again became a planter.〔Wakelyn, p. 207.〕
