Am going to ask a dumb question, I have been going thru Census, found occupations: Lawyers Blacksmiths, Jailers, Farmers, Servants etc. What is A Huckster??? found this more than one place.. I never heard of this. Thanks, Martha Jo Marcum Carr

I believe this was a person who went house to house with his goods on a horse or wagon. Kind of a door to door salesman. My father often spoke of the huckster man coming to his house as a boy.
