The Hughart Genealogy What I Know August 2001 Cynthia M. Hughart My great grandfather, Samuel Curtis HUGHART was born Dec. 21, 1872 in Warren or Madison County, Iowa and married Mary Joan HUMERICK. Their children were Earl, Zeta, and Calvin. Samuel's brother Charles married Mary Joan's sister Emma HUMERICK. My great, great grandfather, Young Alexander HUGHART was born in Adair County, KY in 1845. He moved to Iowa in 1860 with a large group of people including his father, Rev. Campbell HUGHART (United Brethren of Christ) who had strong anti slavery sentiments. Some of the other surnames of families leaving Kentucky with them were: BLAIR, BREEDING, ARMSTRONG, TURK, CARTER, and others. Young Alexander HUGHART married Hannah Maria SHANNON and their children were Samuel, Edna, and Charles. Young Alexander's sister Mary Eliza HUGHART married Hannah's brother, Samuel Enoch SHANNON. Campbell HUGHART was born in Adair County On Dec. 3, 1812. He married Mary Ann BLAIR (b. Dec 3, 1812) on Dec. 17, 1835. Campbell is listed as Rev. in the United Brethren of Christ Church. Campbell died in Iowa in 1890 and Mary in 1901. Their children were: Sarah Jane; James Milton; John Blair; Young Alexander; Mary Eliza; Melvina Elizabeth; Eliza Almarise; William Marion; and a Belzona is listed but I believe she is actually Sarah Jane's daughter. What I don't have primary documentation for - but these are some of the possibilities: I'm pretty sure that Campbell had two siblings: Young HUGHART( b. June 17, 1809) who married Nancy CHAMBERS, Rhoda BUTLER, and Sarah FAULKNER with whom he had a son named John WISDOM HUGHART. Campbell's sister, Sarah HUGHART (b. Dec. 8, 1814) married John DENUMBRON. If this is true, it seems that their mother was a Mary (Polly) Clark BALDRIDGE/ALDRICH born in Rutherford County, NC c. 1795. One source cites her as the daughter of Agnes HUGHART ( But another source just says "daughter of Agnes"?). And this source also lists Mary as the first purchaser at the HUGART estate sale in Jan. 1817 of a John HUGART who died in 1816. Mary married James WISDOM on Aug. 5, 1817, and they have at least 6 children together: E.L.; Kathy Ann; Joseph S.; Mary C.; Elizabeth Jane; William L. In the 1850 census of Adair County Mary is shown age 55 with James age 68, and two of their children, but by 1860 she is no longer shown with James so I presume that she died between 1850 and 1860. John HUGHART shows up in the Green County, KY Census of 1800 and the Adair County, KY Census of 1810, but not in 1820 which makes sense given the information above. There is a John on the 1802 & 1810 Adair Co. tax lists; 1804 land survey. A John HUGART was appointed Justice of Peace in Adair Oct. 5, 1807. From Green Co. Deed Book: John HUGART of Green Co., KY appoints Wm. HUGART of Greenbrier Co., VA/WV his Power of Attorney..May 19, 1799. But there are other John's in KY at that time and a John in Greenbrier; I'm sure he ties into the Greenbrier VA/WV family but I can't figure out which one. I have a copy of the will of a James HUGHART of Greenbrier dated 1789. In it he lists a con, John among many other children and a wife, Agnes. I have a copy of another will of a James HUGGART (August Co., VA) dated 1767 in which he mentions a son, James, a wife, Agnes and others, but I can't read all of it. There were several James Hugharts over the years and at least a couple o! f Johns, so it's a matter of tying down "the one" with documentation. So far most of my sources are secondary. At least twice people have sent me information that Mary Baldridge's husband was Young HUGHART.?? What I need: Birth records for Campbell, Young, and/or Sarah HUGHART. Marriage record for Mary C. and John Hughart. Birth record for John Hughart probably in Greenbrier Co., VA/WV. Any information on Mary Clark Baldridge and James Wisdom's family lines.
