Born in Boston, Massachusetts, he moved to Wisconsin at age 21 to pursue a career as a geologist and academic and in 1853 became the first state geologist of Wisconsin.Daniels was quick to respond to the opening of hostilities between the states, organizing the 1st Wisconsin Volunteer Cavalry Regiment in 1861, serving as commanding officer from 1861-63. The 1st Wisconsin was initially stationed in Missouri, but Daniels led successful raids into Arkansas. However, his actions were unauthorized and called into question by his commanders, leading to Daniels' resignation in 1863. In 1868 Daniels and his wife purchased the Gunston Hall estate in Virginia from descendants of George Mason. (Image)
