HUBBARD COUNTS 133 LIVING DESCENDANTS This article appeared in the "MEMPHIS NEWS-SCIMITAR." The exact date is unknown, however, from information included in the text I surmise that it was written in March of 1905.. Please be advised that I am transcribing this article to the best of my ability and that I will undoubtedly make mistakes due to lack of typing skills and the very poor quality of copy that I am working from, however, I will faithfully follow the punctuation, capitalization and spelling. My copy of this article was passed on to me by a person who has no knowledge of this family, therefore, I can answer no questions that may arise nor can I provide any addition information. Please do not request photo or scanned copies as the quality of either would be such that they would be of no use. Please note that all of the people listed here were living at the time the article was written and no mention is made of those that had died. P. W.
