General Notes: Husband - W. K. Long


He received his education at the public schools of the place of his birth, and grew to manhood on the John Coulson farm. In August, 1862, he enlisted in Company F, Fifteenth Cavalry (Anderson), in which he served until June, 1865, when he was honorably discharged. He was with the army of the Cumberland, participating in its almost innumerable battles and skirmishes, but came through without a wound, although at the battle of Sandridge, Tennessee, he had a horse shot under him. He was sick for several months, in 1863, at Nashville. On his discharge he returned to his native county, and remained in Buffalo township until 1866, when he came to Washington and clerked for Warrick Bros., grocers and millers, until 1875, in which year he entered into partnership with G. M. Warrick & J. M. Wilson, grocers, and at the end of two years they opened a shoe store where Mr. Long was established, the partnership in both industries continuing until July, 1889, when it was dissolved, Mr. Long carrying on the boot and shoe business alone. In 1905 he retired from business life.
His family were members of the First M. E. Church of Washington. Politically, Mr. Long was a Republican.
