Hi Linnea and Cathy, Our HALL family records show that Emma HALL [1847-1872], first child of John and Frances O. [REA] HALL married David HOOVER, date unknown. Our records further indicate that she died in 1872 giving birth to Emma HOOVER. I do not know if their daughter survived childhood. On 1983May03 I visited Cloyd HOLTZAPPLE, age 67, married to Florence/Kathryn HOOVER and Hubert "Gibbie" [HOOVER?] , age 54, then living side by side on Potato Hollow Road [Fishing Creek Valley?]. Mary HOOVER, age 87, was there and participated in our HOOVER genealogy discussion. She was at home dying of cancer at the time. This is where I learned that Edward HOOVER was born to David and Emma E, [HALL] HOOVER about 1872 [they said it was about the same time that John HOOVER m. to Kathryn McCLAIN was born]. But it is possible that John HOOVER could have been born about 1870 based on his first child, William E., being born 1890APR10. This is where it gets sticky. Did David and Emma HALL have two children? Further research and confirmation seems in order. Cathy, the above indirectly relates to your Catharine SHEESLEY but it further fleshes out her husband David HOOVER's family and first marriage details. I wish you every success in your search. Stick with Linnea Miller,she'll steer you right.
