HITTLE FAMILY OF AMERICA
1
1. ____ Hittle (HITTEL), born about 1695, in Kusel of,Rhenish Province,Bavaria,Germany.
NAME: The Name of Hittel or Hittle is derived from the German name Huttler which means a "Maker
of huts or man who lives in a small house." Other variations of the name Hittel are: Hittle, Hutte,
Huttle, Huttelein, Huttler, Huttle, Hittler, Hitler, Hitle. In America, most persons of this family are now
named Hittle, and a few are named Hittel. In the early 18th century, when the first of the family arrived,
the name was spelled: Hittel, Huettle, Hittler, Huettler, Hettler, Hiddle, and one time spelled Hylttel.
Often the person writing down the name did not know how it was spelled so he wrote it the way it
sounded. Although the name Hitler is included in the variations of the name Hittel, the tyrant Hitler
known around the world, is no relation to the family of Huttler. He was the illegitimate son of Maria
Schicklgruber and Johan George Hiedler, and changed his name to Hitler. Hiedler is a completely
different family. A look in a dictionary of surnames will show you that Huttel, Hutter, Huttner, Hutten,
Huttel, Hittel, were one who came from a Hutten (small House) in Germany; dweller in a small cottage;
and that Hittler, Hitler was one who supervised saltworks.
It appears that two brothers of the Hittel family came to America, George Michael and Johann Peter
Hittel, both settling near each other in Northampton County (that part now Lehigh County),
Pennsylvania.

1830--died February 23 ... CALIFORNIA ACADEMY OF SCIENCES (INTERNET AT GOOGLE
BOOKS) Fourth Series Vol. VIII, No. 1, pp. 1-25, pi. 1 June 17, 1918 .....It was on April 5, in this year
of 1830, that Theodore H. Hittell was born, in Marietta, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. As would
naturally be expected of one of his strong and versatile character, his ancestors were sturdy, thrifty and
solid people. His paternal great grandfather, Peter Hittel, was a Protestant, brought up in Rhenish
Bavaria, and driven into exile by religious persecution. He, with a brother, escaped into Holland, thence
coming to America in 1720, and settled down in Upper Milford Township, in Lehigh County,
Pennsylvania, where he passed the remainder of his life as a farmer. He was successful, progressive and
energetic, and was a forceful, and useful member of the community. .....Peter's son, Nicholas Hittel, the
grandfather of Theodore, remained on the farm in Upper Milford Township. He was a man of prodigious
physical strength, and was an industrious and successful farmer, and, it is said, came to be regarded by
his neighbors as a sage. He married Susanna de Vesqueau, or Wesco, as the family name was later
called. Her father, Francis de Vesqueau, was a French Huguenot, and was driven by religious
persecution from his home in Alsace, and came by way of Holland to Pennsylvania. He and his two sons
served in the American Revolution, Francis being in the Second Battalion, Second Company of
Northampton County, Pennsylvania. Nicholas Hittel also served in the American Revolution in the
Northampton County Militia, from 1778 to 1782. The family of Nicholas and Susanna consisted of
eleven children.

<rcfgunkle@east-net.net> .....Peter Hittel married [Elizabeth] Margaret [surname unknown] (b. 1720?d. after 1764) about 1745, according to the Hittel site. We know that Michael Flores sister Elisabeth
Margarethe was married to Peter Hidel, at the time of their father Johan Conrad FLORES death in 1762.
.....We also know that Peter Hittel and Elisabeth Margarethe were baptism sponsors of Michaels
daughter Elisabetha Margaretha in Nov. of 1752 in Dillingersville. We also know that the birth of Peter
and Margarets son Adam Hittel (23 Mar.1754) was recorded at the First Evangelical Lutheran
Congregation in Upper Milford Township. .....There is little doubt that Peter Hittel and Peter Hidel are
the same person and that Elizabeth Margaret Flores, Michaels sister, is his wife. .....Michael Flores,
Peter Kittle or Hittle; Henry Wilhelm; and Isaac Dalef, all of Upper Milford. were naturalized on April
8, 1755. .....It seems certain that Peter Hittel was a early member of the First Evangelical Lutheran
9
Congregation in Upper Milford Township, but a careful reading of The Schoolhouse Near the Old
Spring shows no record of his communing with the group. However, no records existed until 1749 and
we know that by 1756 many of the congregation were dissatisfied with their pastor and broke from the
group. Peter Hittel, one of the leaders of the splinter group, donated an acre of ground for church
purposes at a location two miles to the north of the Upper Milford building and in 1758 the discontented
faction erected their own log building in the vicinity of present day Zionsville. Peter and Margaret
Flores son Adam HITTEL, we noted, was baptized at First Lutheran in 1754. .....We know that Michael
FLORES and his family were among the founding members of this new congregation. The baptism
registry of the Zion Lutheran Congregation, Zionsville, Upper Milford Township, begins in 1757. Five
of Michael and Elizabeths children were baptized at the First Lutheran Church and two: Johann Jacob
(1758) and Maria Magdalena (1763) at Zion Lutheran.
From World Connect.com we get the following (from family record of Conrad Flores: .....Conrad
appears on the same ship list as Michael, Walter Flores has "ship list 72A, his age is given at 49 years,
that of his sons Leonard 29, and Michael at 25." A Conrad Flores appears on a list of founders of
Springfield Township, Bucks Co., PA, in 1743. Research is now underway to confirm this information

Floris, Leonhart Floor. It is assumed that John Valentine Floor was also on the ship but too young to be
listed (i.e. under 16). Conrad and Michael settled in Bucks County, PA while Leonard and Valentine
settled in York County, PA. ....."The proof to me on the connection among the three comes from a land
patent in Bucks County. Conrad took out a warrant on 155 acres of land on Sept. 9, 1741 (Richland
Township, Bucks County). Michael Flores received a return patent (AA5/579) May 16, 1764. The text
of the patent states: Conrad Flores died intestate leaving a widow Maria Barbara and 5 children:
Michael, Elizabeth Margaret (married Peter Hidel), Sophia (married Chirstian Fisher), Elizabeth
(married Michael Fols), and Sibella (married George Reinard). To me, that shows that Conrad had one
son, Michael, and that neither Leonard or Valentine belonged to Conrad for they were both alive when
Conrad died. There is always the possibility that Conrad disowned both Leonard and Valentine but I
think that might be a stretch. " ....."Lois has done extensive research into the other two people on the
Ship Friendship who have similar names: Conrad Florans and Michael Floris. She has established that
10
they were father and son through land deed records and such. Through a patent, she has traced the wife
and children of Conrad. She has also traced a wife and the children of Michael. Michael was in Upper
Milford Township, Lehigh County. Conrad died in Richland Township, Bucks County. I mention this
because one Flohr researcher thinks Conrad was the father of Leonard as well as Michael. Through
detailed research, Lois has ruled out that possibility." .....Children Michael FLORES b: ABT 1714 in

From: MSN NicknameJosephAHittle (Original Message) Sent: 7/18/2007 1:52 AM
I am looking for ANYTHING on the John Hittle who was enumerated in Osolo
Township, Elkhart County, Indiana in the 1860 census.
Household 293 / Family 296 John Hittle - 67 - M - Farm Labor - POB = Pa
(Pennsylvania) Catharine Hittle - 57 - F - House Keeper - POB = Pa Jacob Nagle 17 - M - POB = Pa
The story, as I have heard it so far is that this is at least the 2nd marriage for both
John and Catharine. Catharine apparently was a Whitenight girl who first married a
Nagle back in Columbia County, Pa. I got this from a distant relative on the
Whitenight side of things. However, this source had no documentation to back her
story, but that's not surprising in that evidently the church where the Whitenights,
Nagles and Hittles attended burned with all records lost back in the 1840's.
I made it to the courthouse in Goshen last October, and there is no probate record
for this John Hittle. What I'm hoping is that someone might stumble across
something, anything, out of Elkhart County that would give me a clue as to which
John Hittle this might be.
I suspect, and heavily emphasize "suspect" at this point, that this John is the older
brother of my 2nd great grandfather (Joseph who made it to Marshall County,
Indiana). In fact, other than land surveys which list "John Hittel" as a next door
neighbor to Joseph Hittle's grandfather's land, I don't have any other record of this
John Hittle at all.
Family legend has long been that Joseph Hittle was the oldest son of David and
Hannah Hittle (who came to Marshall County, Indiana in the 1840's with David
dying there intestate in 1846). However, if the 1800 census for David is correct,
and an 1801 birthdate for Joseph is correct, David had at least one son older than
Joseph. Of course, that raises the question, "did that son survive into adulthood?"
I'm to the point where I'd be VERY surprised to establish any other connection to
the family at large other than that John was David and Hannah's eldest son. On the
12
other hand, I also have NO documentation currently to establish my suspicion.
There is a John Hittle in the 1830 and 1840 Census in Columbia County, Pa of the
same age profile that the 1860 John in Elkhart County, Indiana fits. I don't find him
at all in the 1850 Census.
It appears that Catherine married again in Niles, Michigan about 1863, so I'm
guessing that John died sometime between this census and that remarriage date.
Where? When? Is there a probate record anyplace?
I'll take any help I can get on this one!
Thanks!
Joe (Hittle)
I suspect that he died there in Elkhart County shortly after the 1860 census was
taken, or at least between there and about 1863 when it appears that his wife
remarried in Southern Michigan.

LINKS: ...George Michael Hittel (1742-1828) very likely married Christina Hartzel about 1767.
...Christina Hartzel was born 5 sep 1750 in Northampton County, and confirmed 1766 in Tohicken
Reformed Church, daughter of Hans Jacob Hartzel and Barbara Ritter. Most of the witnesses at the
baptisms of George Michael's children are related to this Christina Hartzel. The key link would be
George Adam Ritter, who would not be related to the Hittel family, except if George Michael Hittel
were married to Christina Hartzel. ...In the early 1700's, the parents would normally name their first two
sons and first two daughters after the grandparents. The children of George Michael and Christina are
named after his parents, but not her parents. The parents are named in later children. This is evidence
against the Hittel - Hartzel relationship.
I have made substantial breakthoughs in connecting families simply through witnesses/sponsors at
baptisms of children. Quite often they are relatives. Using this strategy, we can analyze the witnesses at
the baptisms of the children of George Michael and Christina ______. 1772: John Hartzel and Barbara
Hittel (sister of George Michael [and first cousin of Christina Hartzel]). 1774: Jonas Hartzel and
Catharine Santee (oldest brother of Christina Hartzel) 1776: Michael and Anna Maria Hickel (parents of
George Michel Hittel) 1778: George Adam Ritter and Anna Maria Becker (George Adam, first cousin
of Christina Hartzel, son of Martin Ritter, who was brother of Barbara Ritter, mother of Christina).

PROBATE: Lehigh County; Orphans Court Docket File #978; South Whitehall Township; Petition of
Frederick Hittel, administrator for estate of George Hittel, late of S. Whitehall township, died in same in
Feb 1826--left children, Frederick, George, Elizabeth, Elizabeth (intermarried with John Troxell), Jacob
(deceased, and had son Jonathan, under age 14), and Catherine (married Jacob Hartman and had two
children, Tilghman and Louisianna, both minors).
ERROR: Note probate mentions Elizabeth twice. Need to recheck the Orphans docket to verify if
another children was missread.
NAME: Very likely Frederica Martin.
LINKS: At the baptism of their (first?) child was Fridirig and Maria Martin. Apparently someone has
found a baptism record of Frederica Martin born 12 Sep 1759 in Northampton County, PA. If so, and
Fridirig Martin was father, brother, uncle, or cousin, then I would say that Friederica's last name was
most assuredly Marten. Fredericka is a somewhat uncommon. name.
LINKS-BAD: I originally assumed her last name to be Hubner, based on Fredericka Hubner being a
servant to George Hittle in 1772. This appears to be incorrect.

XLI. BIOGRAPHIES OF SALEM, SUGAR GROVE, HEMPFIELD AND
OTTER CREEK. HEMPFIELD TOWNSHIP. PETER HITTLE, farmer,
post-office Greenville, was born July 20, 18Z6, in Berks County, Penn. His parents,
George and Mary (Wetzel) Hittle, were natives of Lehigh County, Penn., where
they were married, and moved soon after to Berks County, from where they came
to this county in 1833 by teams. They finally bought 100 acres, and settled in a log
cabin on the farm where our subject now lives. The father died here about 1849,
and his widow died in 1873; they had twelve children: Catharine, married Peter
Wageman; Anna, married James Reichard; George; Caroline, married Jonathan
Moyer; Elmira, married Joseph Stoyer; Peter, William, John; the others died small.
The parents were Lutherans, and helped to build the little church near by. Peter
Hittle received a common-school education. Aside from farming, he worked at
shoemaking for over thirty years. He also worked at stone masonry. He was
married in 1855 to Mary Haas, a daughter of John and Sarah Haas, the parents of
Charles, Eliza, John, Stephen, Thomas, Henry, Mary, Sarah and Daniel. Her
parents are dead, and were Lutherans. Mr. little settled at marriage on his present
farm, which is now in a state of good improvement. He is the possessor of over 200
acres of arable land, of which he is the artificer. Near his residence there are six
springs, all on less than one acre. He has dealt considerable in horses. His union
blessed him with twelve children: Edwin, Eliza, Elias, Sarah, Daniel, Ellen,
George, John, Reuben, Louesa, Charles and James M. Mr. little has served as
school director twelve years, treasurer of that board for three years, auditor three
years, assessor and assistant assessor each three terms, and treasurer of the Farmers'
Mutual Fire Insurance Company for ten years. His property is worth about $20,000,
including twelve acres of a sandstone quarry. He is a member of the Lutheran
Church, and is a Democrat.

about 40 years old at first marriage, and about 90 when his last child was born. Gary Morris believes
there is an error here, perhaps people exaggerated his age.

FAMILY BIBLE HAS RECORD, AND INDICATES Mary married Jacob French,
also her mother's name as Mary Jones.
A household headed by Jacob French is listed in the 1830 census of Moreland
Township, Lycoming County, Pennsylvania.
Listed in Jacob's household are 1 free white male under 5 years of age; 1 free white
male between 20 and 30 years of age; 2 free white females under 5 years of age;
and 1 free white female between 20 and 30 years of age.
Assuming that Jacob is the free white male listed in the 1830 census as being
between 20 and 30 years of age, he would have been born between 1800 and 1810,
according to the 1830 census.
Assuming that the other persons in Jacob's household are children of John and/or
his wife, those children would have consisted of one son (which son would have
been born between 1825 and 1830, according to the 1830 census) and two
daughters (which daughter would have been born between 1825 and 1830,
according to the 1830 census).

reply on the forum --- Hannah Hittle(widow of David, son of George Michael Jr.
son of George Michael Sr) lived with Jackson and Rebecca Purky according to the
1850 Indiana Marshall County census, ( Purky is household 908 in the census.)
Joseph Hittle (Hannah's son) is also listed on the census as household 916. Why
was Hannah at Purky's house instead of Joseph's? According to Indiana State
library Genealogy Division's "Indiana MarriagesThrough 1850 H-I-J-K" Rebecca
Ann Hittle married Jackson Perkey in Henry County 7-7-1839. A list of David
and Hannah's children that is on the Web has a daughter named Rebecca born in
1815 and Rush County Census report (1830) of David's household supports that
approximate date of birth. It appears to me that Mom (Hannah) was living with
daughter (Rebecca) in Marshall county Indiana at the 1850 census.. This works
fairly well but Hannah is listed at 85 and Rebecca is listed at 30 .This makes
Hannah older than previous census reports would have her be in 1850 and the 1815
birth date for Rebecca would make her 35 in 1850. Also the names are not spelled
exactly the same: Purky in the census and Perky in the marriage list. Also, this is
the only place that i have seen it documented that Hannah was born in N.J. I still
have found nothing to connect her to the name Voreis as is suggested on some
pages. Also, I have seen nothing to support the idea that this David was married to
a Mary.

Roy, Utah 84067; born about 1940-1950, granddaughter of Jackson Gofarth, who was grandson of

RESEARCHER: (1970) John W. WESTLAKE 27 South Downey Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46219; born
about 1904, son of Anna P. HITTLE, daughter of John H. HITTLE, son of George HITTLE, son of
Nicholas HITTLE (1804); supplied information on descendants of George HITTLE (1833).
RESEARCHER: (1970) Marian BUCHANAN CROTHERS 7509 77th Ave S.W., Tacoma, WA 98498;
daughter of Nellie BUCHANAN, son of Thomas BUCHANAN, son of Catherine HITTLE (1806);
supplied much information on the Buchanan family of Washington, including stories relayed down from
Catherine HITTLE, herself.
TO-DO: There is indications that son of first wife, George Hittle, had middle name of Pernell. If so,
this would indicate most likely an ancestor with last name of Pernell. Check PA records for near
occurence of Pernell, possibly first wife of Michael (1776) Hittle.
NAME: Lydia's last name was YEAPLE or APPLE (grandchild and child records). Name Yeaple from
"Monona County, Iowa History" 1890, where grandson Michael Hittle states his father Jacob Hittle was
"son of Michael Hittle and Lydia Yeaple, and great grandson of G>F> Hittle, coming from Prussia at an
early age." Name Apple from marriage record of son Isaac in 1891; son of Michael and Lydia Apple
Hittle.
CONFLICT: Lydia married Michael Hittle about 1810-1813 in Pennsylvania. The closest association
with a Yeaple/Apple family is that of Henry Yaple of Fishing Creek Township, Northumberland (that
place changed to Columbia County in 1813). There is a book on the Yaple Family (see Henry Yaple for
source), which has an entry that says Lydia married Jacob Pealer. Source is "History of Sullivan
County, Pennsylvania" by Thomas J. INGHAM, 1899, Chicago, The Lewis Publishing Company (At
Library of Congress - Call # F157.S67 I4). Includes information on the Pealer family. On page 224 of
the book, under a biography of D.W. PEALER, is the source for their marriage: Jacob Pealer...married
Miss Yapil in Columbia County. That Jacob Pealer married Miss Yapil does not indicate that he married
Lydia Yaple, and thus, the authors of "The Yaple Family in America" Book have assumed that Lydia
was the one she married. The book further states that several daughters may have been born between
1781 and 1788, of which they have no information on. That Henry Yaple was very familiar with the
Hittel family, is evidenced by a Yaple in the book who married Susannah Wescoe, who had married first
to Nicholas Hittel of Upper Milford Township, Northampton County. Much stronger evidence is found
on page 76 of the book <extracted from Pension Record>, when Henry Yapel of Fishing Creek, in 1818
or 1821 lists that he is indebted to the following persons (about 6 listed): Michael HITTEL $7.00
<Note: this probably is George Michael Hittel, born 1742, as Michael Hittel, who married Lydia, had
left county about 1816>.
60
CONFLICT-SOURCE: World Family Tree Disk #10, Family Tree Maker, says Paul Pealer (Bealer) and
Charlotte Spiegelmoyer of Bucks County, PA, had daughter Mary Bealer born 1779 who married Jacob
Yaple. Also had son Jacob born 1784 who married Ellen Bright.

DEATH: Mairon County, Indiana Death records.
BIOGRAPHY: Indianapolis and Marion County, Indiana Originally Published in
1893 by Goodspeed Brothers Joseph Hittle, deceased. The name which is here
given was for many years counted as among the leading farmers of Marion County,
Indiana, and although he has now passed from earth's activities is but just and
satisfactory that his life's narrative be recounted among those who have done
excellent service in subduing the wilderness and bring it into its present splendid
condition physically, morally and socially. Born in Ohio on October 26, 1819, he
was brought to Rush County, Indiana, when seven years of age, the names of his
father and mother being Isaac and Margaret (Aron) Hittle. The father was a native
of the Keystone State and there grew to manhood, learning the miller's trade in
youth. After reaching mature years he immigrated to the Buckeye State and was
62
there married to Miss Aron. About 1826 he and his estimable wife moved to Rush
County, Indiana, and he there entered 160 acres of land on which he resided until
his death in 1861. He was a soldier in the War of 1812, and a man highly esteemed
in the community in which he lived for his many estimable qualities. Of the five
children born to his marriage, three grew to mature years, as follows: Joseph, died
October 1892; Michael, who lives on the old homestead in Rush County, married
Miss Rebecca Carson, who bore him two children, only one now living, William.
His second union was with Miss Eliza Monroe and they had seven children:
Margaret, John Homer, Joseph, Alice, Ocie and Arthur. John Hittle, the third child
born to our subject, resides in Wabash County, Indiana. His first wife was Adeline
Kindel by whom he had six children, one only surviving, Margaret. His second
marriage was with Miss Emma Nixon, who died without issue. He was the third
time married. Our subject's early scholastic advantages did not amount to much, for
as soon as able he was put to work on the farm, 160 acres, which his father had
entered in Rush County. On this farm he remained until twenty-eight years of age,
and then, on May 18, 1848, he was married to Miss Sarah A. Maze, daughter of
Maze, a native of Pennsylvania, born in 1780. After his marriage our subject
remained on his father's farm engaged in milling and blacksmithing until 1856,
when he and his family came to Marion County, Indiana. He bought 120 acres and
of this about twelve acres had been partially cleared. Here began their struggle for a
home and for some time they lived in a log cabin. But only until Mr. Hittle could
erect a frame, one-story house of three rooms. In this the enterprising young couple
made their home until about 1875 when a house of seven rooms was erected. There
Mr. Hittle died in 1892, and there his widow now resides with her daughter, Mary
E., who married Andrew Toon. Mr. Hittle never belonged to any secret
organization, nor to any church, though his parents were Presbyterians. His career
impressed upon his children and his many friends the example of a noble and
honorable life, which, although it was fraught with hard labor and patient industry,
was a model of the sterling qualities that characterized a man who lived nearer to
nature in its purity than to the artifices of society. His death was the occasion of
universal sorrow, for all felt the loss sustained by the departure of such a man. He
was a Democrat in politics, although he never took an active part except to vote his
ticket. His marriage was blessed by the birth of two children. Isaac, his son, was
married first in 1869 to Miss Emma Parrish, daughter of King Parrish of Hancock
County, Indiana, and by her became the father of four children: Carrie E., Oscar L.,
Claudie O. and John G. Isaac Hittle's first wife died in 1880, and his second wife
was Miss Lucy E. Brown, daughter of Samuel Brown. Three children were born to
this union: Della M., Charles J. and Chester A. Our subject's second child, Mary E.,
married Andrew Toon, son of Lewis Toon, and they have one son, Joseph R. John
Maze, father of Mrs. Hittle, was born January 1, 1780, in Pennsylvania, and in 1792
moved to the Blue Grass State. From there he moved to Ohio, thence to Indiana,
then to Arkansas and then back to Indiana, dying in Marion County May 1, 1855.
He married Hannah Harvey and they had twelve children, eleven of whom grew to

Jacob W. Boughner
JACOB W. BOUGHNER went out to Western Kansas forty years ago. It is the men
of forty years experience who have done most for that section of the state, since
nearly all the counties were then just in process of formation and settlement. Mr.
Boughner has been through hard times and good times, but there is no question
about his prosperity, since he has acquired large holdings of rich and productive
lands, and has long been a well known banker in Osborne County.
Mr. Boughner came to Western Kansas with the family before he reached his
majority. He was born at MARRIAGE: PENNSYLVANIA, Lehigh County,
Hilffrich Pastoral Records 1790-1810 Heinrich Huttel and Sarah Sarber 5 Jul 1803
at Home.
BAPTISM-CHILDREN: PENNSYLVANIA, Northampton County, Upper
Milford. ...Sarah Huettel, born 11 Jul 1807 bapt 4 Oct 1807, dau of Henry and
Sarah Huettel. sponsors Nicholas and Susana Huettel. ...Henry Hidel, born 2 Jul
1809, bapt 10 Sep 1809, son of Henry and Sarah Hidel. Sponsors: John Hidel and
Maria Kehler.Centerville, Iowa, November 19, 1859. His remote ancestors came
from Germany, three Boughner brothers coming to this country in colonial times,
one of them locating in Canada and two in New Jersey, and they fought in the
Revolutionary war. Of the noteworthy ancestors of Mr. Boughner one was his
great-great-grandmother, the sister of Captain Hull of the Frigate "Constitution."
The story is told of how she was one of a party of schoolgirls who with song and
flowers welcomed General Washington after his return from a victorious campaign.
Mr. Boughner's grandfather, Richard Boughner, was born in New Jersey in 1794.
He lived for a number of years in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, where he was a
farmer and stock raiser. In 1844 he moved to Wayne County, Indiana, but late in
life retired to Dayton, Ohio, where he died in 1884, at the age of ninety years. His
youngest son, William, was killed while a soldier in the Civil war. Mr. Boughner's
maternal grandfather was Henry Hittle. He was born in Darke County, Ohio, in
1809, and was an early settler in Wayne County, Indiana, where he tendered a
valuable service to the community as a blacksmith and wagonmaker. He was
fifty-two years old when the Civil war broke out, but in spite of that age enlisted
and served all through that struggle. He died honored and esteemed in Wayne
County in 1880.
Martin Boughner, father of Jacob W., was born in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania,
in 1826. He was about eighteen years old when his parents moved to Cambridge,
Wayne County, Indiana, where he grew up and married. He was a carpenter and
builder in early years. In 1855 he moved out to Centerville, Iowa, bought a farm
73
and also followed his trade part of the time. In April, 1878, he arrived in Osborne
County, Kansas, and homesteaded 160 acres at Round Mound. Eventually he
acquired 600 acres of good farm land, and was a noted stock raiser and wheat
farmer for many years. He finally retired to Natoma, and died there in 1911. He
served as justice of the peace and at one time was postmaster of Round Mound. He
was a republican aud a Methodist, being very regular and active in his church
duties.
Martin Boughner married Catherine Hittle. She was born in Darke County, Ohio, in
1834, and died at Centerville, Iowa, in 1916. Of her three children Jacob W. is the
youngest. Viola married Samuel Conger, a retired farmer at Centerville, Iowa.
Henry Boughner lives at Downs in Osborne County, and is a farmer, specializing in
pure bred Holstein-Friesian dairy cattle.
The opportunities Jacob W. Boughner had to attend school were in the country
district near Centerville, Iowa. He was nineteen years old when he came to Kansas
with his parents in 1878, and first assisted his father on the homestead, but after
reaching his majority he too took up a homestead of 160 acres and also a timber
claim of like amount. He still owns both those claims, but in addition has increased
his holdings to 1,500 acres in Osborne County, and uses this large tract for stock
raising and wheat growing. His home for many years has been at Natoma, where he
built a large modern residence in 1910. Besides farming Mr. Boughner has always
been interested in other business affairs. In 1909 he helped establish the First
National Bank of Natoma, and was its president until January, 1918. He is now
chairman of its board of directors. The president is George S. Welling, the vice
president, E. G. Boughner, and the cashier Otto F. Borden. This is a highly
prosperous institution, having n capital of $50,000 and surplus and profits of
$8,500. Mr. Boughner also established the Citizens State Bank of Republic,
Kansas, and was its president two years, then selling his interests. In 1889 he and
his father established a store at Natoma, conducting it three years, until 1892. He
also opened a store in 1892 at Plainville, and was a factor in its management until
1896, when he sold out. He owned another store at Republic, Kansas, for nine
years, and on disposing of his mercantile properties he invested in his present
ranch. Mr. Boughner is also chairman of the board of the National Loan Company,
capitalized at $25,000.
For over twenty years Mr. Boughner was a member of the school boards of
Natoma, Plainville and Republic, and has also been a member of the city council.
He is a republican, and is a very active member of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
being chairman of the board of trustees and superintendent of the Sunday school.
He is affiliated with Natoma Camp of the Modern Woodmen of America.
In 1881, at Osborne, Mr. Boughner married Miss Julia Edmisten, daughter of James
74
and Mary (McMannis) Edmisten. Her mother is deceased and her father, a retired
farmer lives with Mr. and Mrs. Boughner. The latter have good reason to be proud
of the record of their three children. The oldest, Grace, is the wife of William
Musselman. She is a graduate of the Republic High School. The Musselman family
reside at Fort Sam Houston, near San Antonio, Texas. William Musselman is a
captain and adjutant in the United States army, being with the Third Field Artillery
and the Three Hundred and Forty-Third Field Artillery during the war period. In
1918 he was on the firing line in France, at St. Mihiel, Argonne Forest and Verdun
and on to Coblenz, Germany.
Elbert Grant Boughner, the oldest son of Mr. Boughner, graduated from the
Republic High School, attended Salina University, and is now vice president of the
First National Bank of Natoma. He was born in Osborne County June 25, 1886. He
is also secretary and treasurer of the National Loan Company above mentioned. He
is a republican, is treasurer of the Natoma School Board, and a member of Natoma
Lodge No. 390, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, and Salina, Kansas,
Consistory No. 3 of the Scottish Rite. He and his family occupy a fine modern
residence built in 1911. In that year, at Kansas City, he married Miss Elsie
Goodman, daughter of C. H. and Dora Goodman, the former a well known
stockman at Plainville, Kansas. Her mother is deceased. Mr. and Mrs. E. G.
Boughner have one daughter, Marjorie, born June 8, 1912, and one son, E. G. Jr.,
born January 23, 1919.
Philip E. Boughner, the youngest of the children, is a very talented musician. After
graduating from the Natoma High School he entered Bethany College at Lindsborg,
Kansas, graduated in the musical department of that well known institution, later
studied for a year in the Chicago Conservatory of Music, and finished his education
in New York City under Dr. Arthur Freidheim. He is now in the service of his
country as lieutenant in the Three Hundred and Fortieth Field Artillery, hand
master of the regimental band. Several months in 1918 he was on the firing line in
France, was with the Eighty-Ninth Division at St. Mihiel, Argonne Forest and went
into Coblenz as part of the Army of Occupation.

Compendium of Biography BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS OF HANCOCK
COUNTY, INDIANA, PART 7 GEORGE HITTLE. ....................Prominent among
the older citizens of Sugar Creek township is George Hittle, for many years an
enterprising farmer and an intelligent, progressive man of affairs. An Indianian by
birth, he first saw the lightof day in Rush county, December 20, 1833, and is the
son of Nicholas and Susan (MorÂ-gan) Hittle, natives of Pennsylvania and
Kentucky respectively. His father was a farmer and. stock dealer and for many
years carried on the latter business quite extenÂ-sively in Rush county,
accumulating a large and valuable property there and elsewhere. .................George
Hittle was reared on a farm, reÂ-ceived his educational training in the old
fashioned country schools and when a young man earned his first money as a farm
laÂ-borer at monthly wages. After continuing thus for two years he began
agriculture upon his own responsibility, to which vocation lie has since devoted his
time and attention with encouraging financial results. OctoÂ-ber 19, 1871, lie
purchased the farm in Sugar Creek township which lie made his home until
recently and from that time to the present year lie prosecuted his labors with the
82
energy and success characteristic of the progressive American agriculturist.
..................Mr. Hittle in 186o entered into the marÂ-riage relation with Miss
Elizabeth Briggs, daughter of Andrew and Martha Briggs, of 'Kentucky, and is the
father of the following children : Omer N., John H. and Alma E., wife of Albert E.
Parish. In all matters of public import Mr. Hittle has ever manifested a
commendable interest and in him are comÂ-bined the essential qualities of true
manÂ-hood and a high order of citizenship. Quiet in demeanor and conservative in
his views, political and religious, lie is nevertheless a forceful factor in the
community, and by a life of honesty and integrity exerts a wholeÂ-some moral
influence among his neighbors and fellow citizens. By deeds rather than by words
has his career been characterized, and all who know him honor and respect him for
his many sterling qualities of mind and heart—qualities that have made his name
sacred and preserved his reputation from adverse criticism. He has borne well his
part thus far and the future awaits him with abundant rewards for duty faithfully
and uncomplainingly performed. He is now living- a life of retirement in New
Palestine, to which place he removed in October, 1901. Mr. Hittle's father died in
Rush county at the age of sixty-five. Besides the subject there are two other
children of Nicholas Hittle now living, namely : Almira, wife of Thomas Keaton,
and Elizabeth Hittle. .....................John H. Hittle, son of George and ElizaÂ-beth
Hittle, was born in Rush county, IndiÂ-ana, September 15, 1863. In his youth and
early manhood he attended the district schools, where by diligent application he
made substantial progress in the various branches taught. In a large sense, however,
he is self-educated, his knowledge of men and affairs being the result of close and
inÂ-telligent observation, although he has alÂ-ways been a reader and keeps
himself well informed upon the leading questions and isÂ-sues of the day. Reared a
farmer, he has always followed agricultural pursuits and for some years has ranked
with the sucÂ-cessful men of the township of Sugar Creek. He was married in 1885
to Miss Alice RawlÂ-ings, who died on the 23d of July, 1892, leaving one child,
Anna. Mr. Hittle's secÂ-ond marriage took place on the 29th day of November,
1893, when, Norah, daughter of John Fritz, became his wife. ..................Mr. Hittle
is a Republican in politics, but not a very active partisan. Well posted upon the
issues dividing the two great parÂ-ties, he forms his conclusions after intelliÂ-gent
consideration and casts his ballot fromconscientious motives rather than at the
beÂ-hest of party leaders. He is a member of New Palestine Lodge, F. & A. M.,
also the Eastern Star, and his name is found on the records of the local Pythian
lodge and the Court of Honor. He is a gentleman of pleasing address, enjoys good
health, and his career has been marked by integrity, perÂ-severance and the
exercise of those social virtues which make him beloved in the home circle and
popular with all who know' him. Genial and affable in manner, courteous in all
relations with his fellow men, we have in him one who is honored and esteemed
and most eminently a representative man of the township in which lie lives and
prospers.

STORY: Sam cut a picture of a Rattlesnake on a tree on the east side of Upland, Mason County, near
Fraziers Bottom, Putnam County, West Virginia, and the tree finally died about 1940-1970 (info from
Mervin DEAL, grandson of Fannie McFarland by second marriage). Sam and a partner had a large
amount of counterfeit money, and were just about to get caught by the law, when they left the county
(probably around 1885) (information from son Loren LOVEJOY, and also Millie DOSS, sister of
106
Mervin DEAL <she was raised by Fannie Ballanger till her death>). When a young man he moved to
Kansas, settling in Hillsdale, Miami County. He invented the Tripp Hammer on a Self Feeder Threshing
Machine. It was bought by Nicholson and Shepard. They gave him a machine for the rights to the
invention. His son, Loren, said he stole a horse in Kansas, so moved west. He left Kansas and came to
Seattle in June 1901 where he resided until his death.
LETTER: (Letter from Mervin Deal, grandson of Fannie Lovejoy and Addison M. Ballenger, by their
daughter, either Roxie or Millie Ballenger).
Fraziers Bottom, W.Va.
Nov 26, 1971 Dear Mr.
Morris I don't know who Thornton and Fannie Lovejoy's parents were. They are originally from
Sissonville. That is back of Charleston, W.Va. Samuel Lovejoy left W.Va. at a young age. He cut a
picture of a Rattlesnake on a tree on this side of Upland, W.Va. and the tree finally died. He was in some
kind of trouble and left here and he went to Kansas and went to threshing and then went to Seattle, WA.
Only received one letter from him after he left here. The Lovejoys got a small pamphlet and he had 2
boys and one of the boys was a telegraph operator and was on a ship. He signaled it by a flashlight.
They said when it sank, this Lovejoy boy got on a piece of timber and made it to safety. Fannie Lovejoy
had 6 children: one small infant James (dead), Genis Lovejoy, Robert Lovejoy, Agnes Lovejoy, Charley
Lovejoy, and Samuel Lovejoy. All of these are dead except one of Genis' daughters was living about 4
years ago when we were there and her name was Dora (Lovejoy) Francis and she lived out back of
Pomeroy, Ohio. Far as I know, Fannie and Jim Lovejoy were buried at Evergreen cemetery, and there
are no monuments. Agnes married a Jiminson. Charley died when he was about 91 years. He stayed
with me. Charley stayed with his mother till she passed away, then he came and stayed with me until he
died. So Robert and Charley. My grandmother didn't talk much about her first husband. I am pretty
sure he was killed in the Army. And then she married Add Ballanger. He was also killed in the Army.
She had 2 children by Ballanger. My mother had a younger sister that had never seen her Dad. Sorry we
waited so long to answer. If you want to know any more I will let you know if I can find out anymore.
Would like to have one the books, history of Samuel A. Lovejoy. If you would like to visit us we would
show you around the best we could. YOURS TRULY

POPULAR MECHANICS, April 1929, page 651 (Google Books on Internet)
.....ARTICLE: “SIGNING OFF – HEROES OF SOS― .....It was Adolph J.
Swenson who, with his chief Loren A. Lovejoy, rigged up an auxiliary set as soon
as the water ran off the storage batteries at another lurch of the sinking "Hanalei."
When the wireless cabin was swept overboard, he assisted the chief in sending
signals to the nearby Pacific shore with a flashlight. In spite of the fact that men on
land could see the signals, it was almost impossible, due to the storm and terrain,
for them to effect a rescue. When only wreckage remained of the "Hanalei," Loren
Lovejoy was picked up from the piece of driftwood to which lie was clinging by a
passing ship. Adolph Svenson was added to that band who died on duty. .....MY
NOTE: Sailing from Eureka, California, with 62 persons on board and a cargo of
lumber, live cattle, sheep and hogs, Hanalei was lost on November 23, 1914, as she
neared the Golden Gate, San Francisco. The schooner ran aground on Duxbury
Reef opposite of the Marconi Wireless Station in Bolinas around noon on Monday,
November 23. Thick fog obscured the water, and the steamer struck the rocks
108
without warning, tearing off the rudder. Stuck on the rocks, Hanalei remained in the
surf for 18 hours as rescuers, alerted by the ship's wireless SOS, gathered on shore.
Efforts to rig a breeches buoy failed, and as night fell, would-be rescuers lit
bonfires on the beach to wait for morning. When Hanalei disintegrated, passengers
and crew were thrown into the surf. The battering of wreckage and the loose
lumber cargo, as well as the choking effect of the ship's diesel fuel on the water
took a deadly toll; 23 passengers and crew members died as they struggled to reach
the shore. A number persons were saved when the lifesaving steamer McCulloch's
crew plucked them from the water; others washed alive to the beach after several
hours in the water, buoyed by floating wreckage.
