Hello. I am a new subscriber to the Broadhurst mailing list. I have some information on Professor Robert A. Broadhurst of Midway Kentucky. I saw a Beth Carroll on the listing from a few years ago. I would like to see if I can connect with her in regard to some pictures she had in an album. I believe she is not related to him. If anyone is interested in pursuing this line I have some information which I am sharing. This is not all that I have, but may help those who are interested to connect to me. He was the principal of the Kentucky Female Orphan School in Midway Kentucky, 1858 -1871. He was 59 years old in the 1870 census. Mary Louise Broadhurst Hopkins gave the place of her father's birth as Wales. This was from her 1880 census. Source 1860 Woodford County, Kentucky, census reel #400, pp. 21-22, dwelling #40, family # 41; Source 1870 Woodford County, Kentucky, page 480b, dwelling #81, family #86. Robert had 3 children: 1. Mattie Broadhurst, born about 1840 and wife of John S. Stapp; married 20 Dec 1859 in Woodford, Kentucky. 2. William Allen Broadhurst, born 10 Oct 1842, Stanford, Lincoln, Kentucky; died 2 Apri 1892, Jefferson, Kentucky Married to Mildred Olivia Dale, 26 Dec 1865 3. Mary Louise Broadhurst, born 29 Jul 1848, near Kirksville, Madison, Kentucky; died 24 May 1924 in Kokomo, Howard, Indiana, buried at Crown Point Cemetery, Kokomo, Howard, Indiana. She married Alexander Campbell Hopkins, 25 Feb 1869. I have pictures and information on her line with Alexander Campbell Hopkins. I am looking for any and all information on Robert Augustus Broadhurst and his wife, who we believe is Charlotte J. Broadhurst. We received some of our information from Midway College, which is the name of the Kentucky Female Orphans School. If you are interested in any information I have or have information to share and pictures, please contact me at rhopkins523@gmail.com. Kind regards, Rosemary Hopkins Flagstaff, Arizona
I am interested in knowing more about Robert Augustus Broadhurst. He was the minister who married my great grandparents, David Thompson Broaddus and Sandusky M. Murphy in 1877 in Garrard Co., Kentucky. My interest is mainly in his career as a minister for the Disciples of Christ and as an educator.
