- William L. Haskin (May 31, 1841 – September 24, 1931) was a career officer in the United States Army. A Union Army veteran of the American Civil War, Haskin took part in the quashing of the 1866 and 1870 Fenian raids, when Irish nationalists attempted to organize in the United States, then invade the British dominion of Canada. In addition, he took part in the federal government's response to the Great Railroad Strike of 1877. During the Spanish–American War, Haskin commanded the coastal defenses at Willets Point and Fort Schuyler, New York. After the war, he commanded the Artillery Defenses of Havana, Cuba during the post-war occupation. When the United States Military Government in Cuba ended in 1902, Haskin was appointed to command all U.S. forces remaining on the island. In 1903, the U.S. Congress passed legislation permitting Union Army veterans still on active duty at ranks below brigadier general to be advanced one grade. Haskin was then serving as a colonel, and was promoted to brigadier general. He retired later that year. Haskin died in New London, Connecticut on September 24, 1932. He was buried at Arlington National Cemetery. (en)
