DAVID W. GISH, McLean County, was born May 30, 1853, in Muhlenburgh [sic] 
County, and is the eldest in a family of twelve children - six boys and 
six girls - of Daniel J. and Susan (Turner) Gish, natives of Muhlenburgh 
County.  David W. received but a limited education, his studies being 
confined to the neighboring schools.  He resided with his parents until 
he was grown, when he went to farming for himself.  In the fall of 1879 
he engaged in the dry goods business, but the close confinement of the 
store injured his health, and in the fall of 1881 he purchased a flouring 
and saw mill at Sacramento, to which he has since given his attention, 
and which he has operated with considerable success.  He was married in 
November, 1874, to Louisa Anna Miller, a daughter of Simon and Maria M. 
(Harvey) Miller, natives of Virginia and Tennessee, respectively.  Three 
children have blessed this union: Alva, Idella and Anna L.  In the spring 
of 1876, he moved to Kansas, but remained only a year, and then returned 
to McLean County.  In the politics of the day he holds to the Democratic 
faith.
