  WILLIAM E. HARAWAY, M. D., was born in Giles County, Tenn., January 25, 1817;
received his primary education in the common schools; read medicine under Dr.
Kyle, at Rogersville, Ala., and began practice in Limestone County when about
twenty-eight years of age. At the end of one year he removed to his native
county; practiced there two years, coming thence back to Rogersville, where he
devoted his time and talents to the practice of his profession for thirty years.
In 1880, he retired from the practice of medicine, moved into Florence, and was
elected Judge of the Probate Court, and held the office one term.

  At the outbreak of the war, Doctor Haraway volunteered as a soldier, but being
the only physician in the neighborhood where he lived, the people entered such
an universal protest against his leaving, that he was compelled to remain at home.

  The Doctor is a public-spirited man, fully abreast of the tide of modern
progress, lie is at present largely interested with other gentlemen in the
organization and construction of an important line of railway. He was married at
Fort Hampton, Limestone County, December 4, 1844, to Eliza C. Bonner.

  The Doctor is a son of Samuel and Nancy (Williamson) Haraway, natives of
Virginia, and descendants from Scotch ancestry. He is a self-made man and his
present ample fortune is the result of his individual effort and industry.
