== Background ==
Bacon was born August 21, 1816 in Stillwater, New York, son of Samuel and Lydia Barber Dailey Bacon. He worked as a clerk in Troy, New York for a couple of years. In 1836 he was baptized in the Unadilla River by Elder Jabez Swan; he would remain a lifelong Baptist.
He joined his parents in their 1837 move to Butternuts, New York. On July 4, 1838, he married Delia Blackwell, a native of Butternuts. For four years he farmed in Butternuts, teaching school in the winters. On September 2, 1841, the couple left for the west, going by canal from Utica to Buffalo, New York, by steamer from thence to Milwaukee in the Wisconsin Territory, and west from there to what was then called "Prairieville" (now Waukesha), where they would settle for the rest of their lives.
