DAVID H. DUNGAN, M. D.
(Summary)
David H. Dungan was born in Maury county, Tennesee, March 11, 1839. His great-grandfather, Nathan Dungan came to America from Wales during he last century and was a merchant in Philadelphia. His grandfather, William Dungan, born in Philadelphia, a strict Methodist, "as honest as old Billy Dungan" being a proverb, very pious, lived an honorable and honored life, and died in Madison county, Tennessee, in 1851, aged eighty-two. His father Nathan Dungan, was a native of Williamson County, Tennessee; was a justice of the peace more than thirty years; moved to Wayne county in 1849; to Madison county in 1874; was a Democrat and a Union man; a member of no church, and died in 1877, aged seventy-two. His maternal grandmother, Nancy Hamilton, was a woman of great force of character; her father's name was Bell, of South Carolina, of Scotch-Irish descent. His mother, Lilias Hamilton, born in Rutherford County, Tennessee, in 1806, daughter of Hance and Nancy Hamilton, who were natives of South Carolina, died in Maury county, Tennessee, in 1847. Rev. John B. Hamilton a Methodist minister at Columbia, Tennessee, once chancery clerk of Maury county, now at Edgefield, Tennessee, and David Hamilton a business man of Williamson county, are his maternal uncles.
At the age of eight David H. Dungan went into the family of David Hamilton, at Selma, Alabama, where he remained till he was eighteen. In 1856, he went to Chester, South Carolina, where he studied medicine, with Dr. William Wylie, a brother of Dr. A. P. Wylie, the distinguished physician and horticulturist, of Chester South Carolina, as instructor. Here he remained for two years, and then attended his first course of lectures in the medical department of the Nashville University in 1858-9. From Nashville he went to the University of
Pennsylvania, where he graduated March 14, 1861.
(My note: Dr. William Wylie is the father of Mary Wylie who married David Hamilton)
Returning from school, he began the practice of medicine at Thompson's Station, Williamson County, TN. He began the practice in April, 1861, but in the following July entered the Confederate Army as a private. He was immediately afterward appointed assistant-surgeon, ?d battalion of Tennessee Cavalry until October, when he entered the Anderson hospital at Nashville. On the retreat from Nashville he was ordered to Chattanooga, where he established and maintained a hospital about two months. In March, 1862, he shipped his patients to Atlanta and reported to General Albert Sidney Johnston at Corinth. He was assigned to duty after the battle of Corinth as surgeon to the 1st regiment of Tennessee Cavalry, and served in that capacity through the war under Generals Armstrong, Van Dorn, Forrest, Wheeler and Wade Hampton. He participated in over two hundred engagements, and was in the battle of Chickamauga, Corinth, Baker's Bridge, Holly Springs, etc. Near Thompson's Station, in January, 1863, he was taken prisoner and was confined six days in the Nashville penitentiary and ten days in Louisville barracks, and was paroled at Cincinnati, returning to his command after forty days of imprisonment He was conservative as a surgeon, rarely resorting to the knife.
From May, 1865, to October, 1870, Dr. Dungan practiced his profession at Thompson's Station. On the 10th of November, 1870, he took up his residence in Little Rock, where he has ever since pursued his calling, practicing medicine as an exclusive business. His mind is vigorous and active, embracing a wide field of observation.
Dr. Dungan is a member of the Little Rock and Pulaski County Medical Society of which he has been president; of the Arkansas State Medical Association; of the American Public Health Association; of the Sanitary Council of the Mississippi Valley, and of the American Medical Association.
He began life without property, his uncle, David Hamilton, assisted him to pursue his medical course. His preference was for the law but his finances forbade the pursuit of his favorite study. He came to Little Rock a perfect stranger, and acquired what he has by his own efforts. His motto has always been to be upright in his dealings and demand justice for himself.
Dr. Dungan has been twice married. His first wife was Miss Alice Thompson, of Thompson's Station, Tennessee, to whom he married January 17, 1866. She was born in 1847, and was the daughter of Dr. Elijah Thompson, a native of Virginia and the son of John Thompson, a very wealthy farmer who was of Irish ancestry. Her mother was Mary Ann Riley, daughter of Captain Riley, once a member of Congress from the Columbia, Tennessee, district. Mrs. Dungan was educated in Dr. Eliot's school at Nashville. From girlhood she was remarkably industrious. The following incident shows her as spirited and patriotic as she was elegant in manners and industrious in habits: During the battle at Thompson's Station which occurred around her father's house, she courageously went into the midst of the fighting, heedless of danger, carrying with her wings and stimulants for the relief of the wounded, exposing herself with heroic during for the Southern cause. This remarkable bravery created a great sensation in the army, and her name was always spoken with profound gratitude and respect by the soldiery. Her aunt, Sophia Riley, married Colonel (afterwards General) Robert Hatton a noted Whig leader in Tennessee, a member of congress and a gallant officer of the confederate army, and now that he is dead she is state librarian of Tennessee. By this marriage Dr. Dungan had but one child Susan Annie, born at Thompson's Station. November 25, 1858, and now being educated at the Catholic convent at Little Rock.
(My note: Two deceased children by this marriage are not mentioned- Elijah Thompson Dungan b. ca 1865; Mary Lillis Dungan b. ca Dec 1866 d. August 15, 1867) Buried at Dungan Cemetery near Thompson's Station as is their mother Alice Thompson Dungan.)
Dr. Dungan's second wife was Mrs. M. M. Lefevre, widow of W. B. Lefevre whom he married in Little Rock, October 25, 1871. She is the daughter of Jacob Thompson a Scotchman. by her first husband she had one son Edward L. Lefevre, born July 13, 1861.
(My note: Dr. David Hamilton and his second wife had one son David Hamilton Dungan b. September 19, 1881 d. infant)
Susan Annie Dungan married Dr. Cola Peete. I have her last listed in 1910 Bibb County Census of Macon Co. GA
Children: David D. Peete 18, John S. 15, M. Alice 12 and Annis C. 9.
