Percy Daniels
Percy Daniels (September 17, 1840 in Globe Village in Woonsocket, Rhode Island – February 14, 1916 in Girard, Kansas) was an American soldier, businessman, civil engineer, surveyor, author and Populist politician.
==Early life and Civil War==
Daniels was the second son of Judge David Daniels (1804-1847), a Rhode Island lawyer and businessman who acquired his title by serving as a Judge of the Common Pleas court for a term. Daniels' mother was Nancy Ballou, daughter of Dexter Ballou, a wealthy Rhode Island mill-owner. Daniels' father and mother both died when he was six years old. He received a good education, studying at Westminster Seminary in Westminster, Vermont and the University Grammar School in Providence, Rhode Island. His studies in civil engineering were interrupted by a serious illness. At the outbreak of the Civil War Daniels was not healthy enough to enlist, but after spending time in Michigan recovering his health he enlisted in the 7th Rhode Island Infantry in May 1862. By January 1863 he was in command of Company E, which he had largely raised himself, and he was made a captain in March 1862. His older brother Herbert (1836-1926) helped him recruit and served in the same regiment.〔(Transcribed Civil War letters of Herbert Daniels )〕 In the middle of 1864 Percy was raised to lieutenant colonel and breveted to colonel, as Col. Zenas Bliss had been injured; Daniels remained in command of the regiment for the remainder of the war.
