Hutchcraft b. 1824 Bourbon County KY? Could he have been married before Mary Jones in 1856? My John Hutchcraft: parents/siblings/date of birth/death/ unknown wed: 1-3-1849 Hamilton County, Il to Mary Charlotte Crisel Nov 1849: Wm. HARRISON Hutchcraft born 1850 Il Census: Mary and son, William are living with her parents and John is NOT listed in Illinois Census - he IS listed in KY census (son of Reuben Hutchcraft) abt 1851 Charlie Hutchcraft born 1855 Mary Charlotte divoreces John Hutchcraft as he has disappeared 1856 - Your John Hutchcraft weds Mary Jones I think they are one and the same..... 1. Harrison, middle name of John and Mary's son is also maiden name of Reuben Hutchcraft's mother. Many other family names come down 2. Resemblance - we have seen the picture of Reuben in the Hopewell Museum - his lower lip has a bit of drawl - so do several of our Hutchcraft's 3. Age is good - not prooven, but good. What are your thoughts? We cannot proove they are the same; but BOY, we are nearly positive - just need to know if your John may have been on his second marriage?
