Daniel Noyes Haskell, born Cincinnati in 1846, served in the Union Army's Co. G, 2nd Missouri Cavalry and later in Co. G, 137th Ohio Infantry Regiment. After the War he moved to California to serve as deputy sheriff and police chief in northern California's Redding. While riding guard on the Wells Fargo stage between Redding and Del Mar, with a $10,000 payroll, Dan Haskell was shot and wounded. The Haskell guard's heroism saved the payroll, but he died next day of his wounds. His funeral was the largest ever held in Shasta County.
