Military*7 October 1861Lieut. John Gough
The town of Saukville was nobly represented in the Ozaukee Rifles by a squad of eighteen, headed by the subject of this sketch, John Gough, who was before the war, as he is now, a prominent farmer of that town.

John Gough was born in Valcartier, Canada East, June 24, 1833, and coming to Wisconsin with his parents and the rest of the family, reached Mequon, this county, on June 5, 1845. The next month the family settled upon the homestead in the town of Saukville which it has occupied up to this time, the aged and respected parents still living there. Being one of the first families to settle in town, they found it an unbroken forest, through which Indians and wild beasts roamed at their pleasure; and John being the eldest of the children, and though but twelve years of age, soon became accustomed to the rough life of a pioneer, and grew to be a strong, athletic young man, 5 ft. 10 in. in his stockings.

As may well be supposed, there were no schools within reach of the family for several years and John had little opportunity to attend school, but being a bright boy, and having intelligent parents, he picked up a common school education, learned the carpenter trade, and besides being a model tiller of the soil he became so skillful in the use of many tools that his services were much sought after by his neighbors. His home being in a region abounding in the different kinds of game indigenous to this climate, John became familiar with firearms, a fact that was of great value to him in the army.

John Gough upon reaching his majority was an ardent Republican and has to this day remained an uncompromising, conscientious member of that party, voting for Lincoln and for every presidential candidate of the party since the war. Being a true patriot, who loved his adopted country and was opposed to the continuation of slavery, it is no wonder that he was eager to march to the defense of Old Glory when it was fired upon by armed traitors, and hardly waiting to house the harvest he enrolled his name as a member of the Ozaukee Rifles October 7, 1861.

He was chosen one of the first sergeants of the company, and a good one he made. Having had some previous training in militia companies he soon mastered the drill and there was that snap and vim to his movements that are so indispensable to a good soldier's makeup. Having seriously injured his knee by an accident, just as the regiment was leaving Madison for the front, John was forced to use a crutch up to the opening of the battle of Shiloh, and his leg never recovered fully, but still troubles him.

When the “long roll” sounded at Shiloh, Gough promptly threw away his crutch, buckled on his accouterments, and seizing his rifle limped to his post in line of battle; and during those two terrible days of battle and death, remained at his post until the foe had fled, doing his whole duty and doing it nobly. Coming out of that fight safely, he participated in the siege of Corinth, the battles of Iuka and Corinth, and in Grant's first advance against Vicksburg, always on hand when needed and ever ready for duty. When companies “G” and “K” were consolidated, the sergeants of the latter company were wrongfully sent back to the ranks, instead of being mustered out; and although Gough soon after received a commission as second lieutenant of company “K,” he was never mustered as such, but through some inexcusable connivance, stupidity or negligence on the part of his superior officers, he was kept in the ranks until May 1, 1864, when he and Sergt. Gatfield were mustered out under a special order from the Secretary of War. In the meantime he had accompanied the regiment in all of its marches and trials, and at Lake Providence, La., with nearly the whole command, was prostrated by a terrible fever, which he finally rallied from, and had just strength to take advantage of a short furlough that was given him, and reach his home. Recovering from his illness he returned to the regiment at Vicksburg, and remained in the ranks manfully performing his duties until his muster out.

Receiving his discharge he went directly to Madison and laid his case before the governor, requesting that his commissioned rank be given him in a new regiment. He was promptly offered a commission in one of the regiments then being raised for one year, but knowing that such regiments would only do garrison duty, he as promptly declined the offer. He was told that no three years regiments were then being organized by the state and was offered a commission in one of the regiments then in the field. But as he knew that his going as a commissioned officer to a company that had seen service, would be an injustice to the noncommissioned members of that company, he was forced to refuse that offer also, and returning to the farm he tilled the soil until the war ended, and continues to work that farm still, always sorry that he was not allowed to serve the remainder of the war in the gallant Ozaukee Rifles, or old company “K” of the 16th Wisconsin.

In 1872 Comrade Gough was married to Miss Elizabeth Mooney, of Milwaukee, who has made him an excellent wife. Three sons have been born to them, John E., Lawrence and Michael. The eldest, John E., died a few months since, after a long and painful illness, much respected by all who knew him. Of late years the privations and exposures of his army life have begun to tell on Comrade Gough, and his health has been far from good. But he has hundreds of friends, who knowing him to be the upright, worthy citizen that he is, wish him the early return of good health, that he may live for years to come, enjoying the prosperity and happiness of the great nation he fought so gallantly to save to posterity, honored and respected by all.

The future of this country is now, as it always has been, a matter of much concern to the subject of this sketch; and feeling that the Republican party represents the best policy for the perpetuation of our government, John Gough takes a live interest in every political campaign, working early and late for the success of his party. He has held some of the minor offices in the gift of the people, who have sought more than once to elevate him to a high office, but with characteristic modesty he has invariably refused to have his name so used. John Gough and Richard C. Kann, of Port Washington, are the only survivors of the Ozaukee Rifles living in this county. May they continue to survive for many years to come.

The picture accompanying this sketch, was copied from a tintype taken several years after the war. Mr. Gough did not wear whiskers until after the war.

Birth*between 1766 and 1771Dundalk Civil Parish, County Louth, Leinster Province, Ireland; This date is based on the ages given in the 1825 and 1831 Censuses of Valcartier. Place of birth is stated in the Land Petition filed by Thomas in 1817.2,3,4 
Marriage*circa 1794Alice Mooney; Ireland 
Military*circa 1802The land petition of 1817 states Thomas was in the 4th Royal Veteran's Battalion for more than 11 years. This British Army unit was raised in Ireland in 1802 and was disbanded in 1814. These Veterans' units were often reserve units consisting of older soldiers. Thomas's unit was stationed in Ireland and later in Gibraltar between 1803 and 1814. We currently have no records indicating his enlistment or discharge dates. British soldiers were frequently eligible to apply for property in the British owned territories in Quebec and Ontario.5,6 
Land Petition*4 March 1817"To the Honorable Commissioners, nominated and appointed to Concede, distribute, and lay out the (cidevant) Jesuits Property, now Crown Lands.
The Memorial of Thomas Goff, Soldier in His Majesty's Late 4th Roy. Vet. Battalion.
Humbly Sheweth:
That Memorialist, having truly and faithfully served His Majesty upwards of eleven years, by which he humbly begs leave to represent to your Honors that he hopes he is entitled to some Lands in this Province for his past services,
That it appears that there are Lands now to be granted and conceded in the Seigniory of St. Gabriel.
Wherefore Memorialist humbly begs that your Honors may be pleased to grant and Concede unto him two lots of land in the said Seigniory subject to the Rents, Laws, and Regulations that the other Tenants are to Pay, and are required to observe. Said Lots being three arpents french measure perpendicular Breadth of thirty arpents in Depth. And Memorialist as is Duty Bound will ever pray.
Signed - Thos. Goff
Quebec 14th March, 1817"

Comments: In a later petition (1821), Thomas states that he and his family came to Quebec in 1818, so it's possible that he sent this petition from Ireland. Also, a son was baptised in July of 1817 in Ireland. Currently, I have not found any documents that responded to this petition.7 
Immigration*1818The land petition in 1821 states that Thomas and his family came from Ireland to Quebec in 1818.8 
(Witness) Death8 December 1818Marguerite Gough; Quebec City, Quebec County, Quebec, Canada; "On the 10th of December, 1818, ...buried in the cemetery of Sainte Anne, Marguerite, daughter of ...Thomas Gough, mason, and of Louise Mooney, died day before yesterday in this village, age of six months (hard to read).

Occupation*1821The land petition by Thomas Gough in 1821 states that he and two of his sons, Patrick and James, are stonemasons.8 
Land Petition25 April 1821Quebec County, Quebec, Canada; This is the transcription: "To the Honourable, the commissioners for Managing and improving the Estates heretofore belonging to the late order of Jesuits.
The Humble petition of Thos. Gough, Patrick Gough, James Gough, and Michael Gough.
Humbly Sheweth
That your petitioners were born in the town of Dundalk in the parish of Dundalk in the county of Louth and the Kingdom of Ireland and that the said Thomas Gough, Patrick Gough and James Gough are by trade, stonemasons, and that said Thomas Gough is father to the above named Patrick Gough, James Gough and Michael Gough, besides three smaller children and a wife to support and further says that He (Thomas Gough) with his family landed in this country in the year 1818 in hopes of obtaining land as a future residence for himself and his family and understanding that there is land to be put under survey in the Seigniory of St. Gabriel in the month of May (text is unreadable may say “next” ?).
They, (the said Thomas Gough, Patrick Gough, James and Michael Gough) Humbly hope that the Honorable the commissioners will grant them each a lot of the aforesaid land when surveyed as it is absolutely necessary for them to be as near as possible to the town of Quebec for the purpose of following their trade. They also pledge themselves to the Honourable, the commissioners that they will make an actual and permanent settlement of land if granted and as is duty bound your petitioners...even pray.

My notes: I believe the female is Alice Mooney and that it should be in the married column.
The child under six is probably Charles (born c1821)
The child who is 6 - 13 is probably John.
The two males between 18 & 24 were probably Thomas and Michael.
That would mean that likely Charles (born 1815) and Edward (born 1817) had probably died.12 
Census1831St-Gabriel-de-Valcartier, Quebec County, Quebec, Canada; "Thomas Gough" living in the 1st Range of Valcartier in a Inhabited House.
There are 5 people in his family:
1 child age 6 - 13.
1 single male age 18 - 20.
1 single male age 21- 29.
1 married male 60 and over.
1 married female 45 and over.
All five are members of the Catholic Church.
One person is earning their living in agriculture.
There are 270 arpents of land occupied and 60 arpents are under cultivation.
In the previous year, he harvest 200 minots of oats, 850 minots of potatoes and 12 minots of buckwheat.
He owns 8 cows and 4 horses.
There are 2 people residing in the house who born in the UK and who have arrived in the province by sea since May 1, 1825.

My notes: It appears that one of the older sons, Thomas or Michael, is not in the Census.
Also, since Thomas was present for the census on September 20, 1825 and this census says he arrived after May 1, 1825, it implies that they arrived in the summer of 1825. However, other documents, such as his signature on a petition for an oat mill in April of that year indicates, he had arrived earlier.13
