NOTE OF RECORD AND APPRECIATION
Through John Hill Hooser and the genealogical marker that he provided me (Randall Hill Hooser (TWIN SON) born 1957) is basically why I was so motivated to continue after I had most of the answers to my own family lineage. Much thanks to Bell Cobb Dahlman (granddaughter of James Knox Hooser for the clues) and Susan Hooser Gray (daughter of Charles Emmett Hooser) for providing the vast historical
insight to our family.
Notes About David and Mary Hooser’s Life
David's farm still stands although uncared for, north of Guthrie Ky on Highway 79. The old house, the barn, the well, as well as the grape vineyards are still there. The Civil War and the events leading up to it must have taken a toll on the Hooser family. David was born on Feb 14, 1769 and died November 23, 1852. The words on his stone read:
"Our Father has gone to a mansion of rest;
From a region of sorrow and pain;
To the glorious land by the Deity Blest;
There he never can suffer again."
Mary lived from the year 1779 until 30 Aug of 1862. She died of old age and exposure. We know the farm, and the crops were completely destroyed in 1862 by the Union Army (Sherman and Shackelford were known to be in the area) after some weeks of occupation. The pre-battle activities lead up to the Battle of Dover approximately 30 miles west of Clarksville TN. Mary died very soon after the Union Army left their home in ashes. Her stone reads:
"Alas Mother has left us her spirit has fled;
Her body now slumbers along with the dead.
Her Savior hath called her to Him, she has gone;
Be Ye also ready to follow her soon."
The question remains:
"Why did the Union Army destroy the family home and livelihood from a family that resided in a NEUTRAL state of the United States?"
B.1 Daniel Hooser (1801-1885) and Margaret Allen (b.1802 in SC) raised three children:
B.1.1 Rosanna Hooser (b.1833) married Puckett

Note About Washington M. Hooser
A Confederate Veteran who fought under Morgan and was captured by the Yankees. (Taken from the Daily Leaf Chronicle – Clarksville, TN 3/18/1901 p.1)
B.4 John (Jack) Hill Hooser's Lineage -- HEAD To THE HILLS!
John (Jack) Hill Hooser married Martha G. Ring (bn 1812) on Feb 26, 1834 in Todd County Kentucky. Martha and Jack raised eight children that constitute the majority of the Hooser family in KY, TN, &AL.
B.4.1 Andronica Hooser (1835) married Dr. Thomas Frazier in 1861. She is buried in Dayton, Ohio

B.4.8 Nannie Hill Hooser (1856) married Toby Ring in 04/28/1897 Buried in Washington, PA
With all these children, "Jack" Hill Hooser must have been a busy man. While he may never have "headed for the Hills" some interesting things result from the US Census records. In 1850, census records show him in Kentucky; in 1860 census shows a John H. Hooser in California; and 1870 then back again to Kentucky. Could John have been a "forty niner"? (Answer: There were two John H. Hoosers from Kentucky. The younger John H. Hooser went to California).
B.4.2 John Nick Hooser's* (1840-1905) Line-A TAILOR-MADE Family
John Nick Hooser married Ann Damascus Edwards on Dec 22, 1864 and reared a family in the Todd County/Christian County area of Kentucky. Due to the achievements and hard work of John Nick's family (himself an artist), a tribute to the Hooser family is there today (on MAIN STREET of course!)
B.4.2.1 Jenny Hooser (1866-??)
B.4.2.2 James Knox Hooser (1869-1952) married Elizabeth Edmunds
B.4.2.3 John Edward Hooser (1867-1950)
B.4.2.4 Charles Emmitt Hooser
B.4.2.5 Elva Hooser
B.4.2.6 Sally Hooser
James Knox around 1900 established a Tailor Shop in Hopkinsville Ky. He employed his family members most notably Charles Emmette who was responsible for the Pants and Vest preparation for men's apparel. The girls Elva, Sally and Jenny never married but they too were business people. They started a dry goods store that was converted to a women's apparel annex to JK Hooser's shop.
B.4.2.2 James Knox Hooser (The Tailor) Hooser's Family Line
James Knox Hooser (1869-1952) married Elizabeth Edmund and raised a daughter Jane Hooser along with tending to the family business.
B.4.2.2.1 Jane Hooser (19XX to19XX ) married Maurice Cobb
As mentioned earlier, James Knox (J.K) worked with his family in the Tailor Shop. His style was very evident not only from his loyal customers but also in his taste for architecture. The following quote is taken from the Hopkinsville KY newspaper "Kentucky New Era". "One of the most distinctive changes made during the Hooser ownership was the installation of an oversized colored-glass window above the front doorway. It allows in both the large amounts of light required by a busy tailor and left an unusual bit of commercial art to the downtown scene." The building is now a monument to J.K. Hooser (The Tailor) in downtown Hopkinsville, Ky.

B.4.2.3 John Edward Hooser's (1867-1950) Line-What Do You Mean-"ROLL TIDE!?"
John Edward (1869-1950) married Davie Emma Hooser and raised three children. The majority of his family settled in the Alabama area. (Is this what they mean by a "FAMILY FEUD"? -- REF: the 3rd Saturday in October when a sea of orange & white meets the Crimson Tide or Frank's side verses John Edward’s side?? Nathan, better get my Tennessee Woodsman black powder shotgun!!)
B.4.2.3.1 Mildred Hooser married Emil Carl Armingeon
B.4.2.3.2 David Mack Hooser married Henrietta Catherine Froehlich
B.4.2.3.3 Cornelia Hooser
Well I guess in every house a little football must be watched. While I am most thankful that I met Ronald Williams at work, I must admit though, we are probably not on the same side of the gridiron on Tennessee-Alabama game day. Ronald's family lives in Huntsville (as I do) and his parents Louise and Louis Williams live in Birmingham Al. David Mack Hooser lived in Birmingham with his wife and his daughters Olga and Anita are still in the "Heart of Dixie".

B.4.2.4 Charles Emmette Hooser's (1880-1967) Line-"A Quality Man Makes His Mark"
Charles Emmette married Maude Schanlin and raised two children. His family lived mostly in Kentucky, until Charles moved to Georgia late in life.
B.4.2.4.1 John Mack Hooser (1919 to present)
B.4.2.4.2 Susan Hooser married Gray (1915 to present)
After researching volumes of data on our family, I must admit I still have some lingering questions ... but of this I am sure. Everyone in our extended family should contact the children of Charles Emmette Hooser. John Mack (79) and Susan Gray (83) were wonderfully delightful and colorful conversationalists.
John Mack's honesty was remarkable and Susan's sincerity was poignant. They are I believe the oldest surviving of the John Nick Hooser family line, however I did not research all of his children.

B.4.7 William Hooser's (08/29/1854-11/27/1911) Line-A Heart-Felt Family Story
William Hill Hooser married Alice Moore on (7/25/1889) in Montgomery County. The family was raised in nearby Trenton, KY. Many families today do not know how to function in times of tragedy but this one did. The children were:
B.4.7.1 Frank Hill Hooser (1893-1956) married Volena Hamm.
B.4.7.2 Guy Hooser (1897-1984) married Rhea Liddich.
B.4.7.3 Robert Hooser (Died suddenly in a car accident in the 1940's)
B.4.7.4 Ethel Hooser married Robert Sanford April 10, 1910
B.4.7.5 Alice Hooser
According to death records and family reflection, William, already a widower (Alice died in 1905 possibly due to Typhoid), died in 1911 due to a sudden heart attack. The children (mostly in their teens) were raised by William's youngest sister Nanny and her husband Toby Ring. It is known that Nanny and Toby had no children of their own, but the inclusion of five new mouths to feed in those days shows the courage and strength of the Hooser family then and also a strong testimony of what modern families may need to relearn in the 1990's.
B.4.7.1 Frank Hill Hooser's Line - HOW 'BOUT' THEM VOLS??
Frank Hill Hooser (1893) married Volena Hamm and moved to Paris Tennessee to raise their children. 107 Wynn Dr was the home for the following five:
B.4.7.1.1 William Edward Hooser (1925 to 1983) married Jackie Beazie
B.4.7.1.2 Emma Jean Hooser (1927-present) married Thomas Erwin
B.4.7.1.3 Thomas Hooser (Tommie) 1930 to 1981) married Mary
B.4.7.1.4 Frank Hill Hooser Jr. (1933-present) married Margaret Burns
B.4.7.1.5 Mary Alice Hooser (1935-present) married Dewey Garrett
Paris is a boating Mecca of the South. Large segments of Kentucky Lake are available from boat docks at the Paris Landing. Paris also boasts of the only National Fish Fry in the United States. The majority of the Frank H. Hooser family continues to frequent Paris to conduct large portions of family gatherings and events. My own personal memories of my uncles is one of boats, fishing, radios and televisions-especially when the University of Tennessee Volunteers were playing.

B.4.7.2 Guy Hooser's Family Line - California Dreamin'
Guy Hooser (1896-1984) married Rhea Liddich (second wife was named Via) and raised three children:
B.4.7.2.1 Thomas Guy Hooser (1922 to present)
B.4.7.2.2 Gertrude Hooser
B.4.7.2.3 Louise Hooser
Guy was strong willed and free-spirited. He eventually was drawn to the San Diego California area when he found solace with the ways of the "Hollywood" State. I remember him more as Uncle "Buck"-no not because he looked like John Candy, but because when I lived in Kentucky with my father (Guy's nephew), he brought us our first ever BUCK KNIFE.

Notes About Martha Jane Overshiner
Martha Jane Overshiner, wife of David J. Hooser was the daughter of Gideon and Barbara (nee Campbell) Overshiner. Gideon’s father came here from Germany and fought for the American Revolution. Gideon and Barbara Overshiner were pioneers of the Methodist Church in Christian County. (Taken from the History of Christian County)
C. Daniel Hooser (9/2/1773 -1/2/1846) and Mary "Polly" Clark (1/15/1787 - 9/12/1852) were married 12/26/1805 by Jesse Clark in Christian County, Kentucky. Daniel and Mary moved to the Cape Girardeau area in Missouri in 1815. We know that Daniel and Mary raised three sons and three daughters. Daniel and Mary attended the first Methodist Church west of the Mississippi - Old McKendree Chapel.

Hoosier / Hooser Notable Facts -- Migration Minutes from Greg Rose's “Hoosiers' Origin”
Quote from Page 214: "By 1850 southern-born settlers in the Hoosier state comprised 44% of the population that was born in the United States exclusive of Indiana, far above the average of 28.3% for the whole Old Northwest as a whole. No state in the Old Northwest had a greater proportion of its population native to the South in 1850; Illinois came closest with 34.8 percent. No state in the Old Northwest had a larger number of southern natives in 1850: Ohio came closest with 150,845 - 28,000 shy of Indiana's figure of 178,847. The south central section of the state was the most heavily southern, reaching a maximum of 91.5% of the non-native Hoosier ... Southerners were the first pioneers in the state, settling initially in the south along the Ohio River and then moving northward into the interior.”
"Because so much of the state was preempted by southerners, fewer migrants from the Middle and New England states moved directly to Indiana during the period from 1800 to 1840, when much of the state passed from a wilderness to an established society. This fact made southerners extremely important in the development to the state."
“… Four states-Kentucky, Virginia, North Carolina, and Tennessee accounted for most of the southerners in Indiana. Natives of Kentucky surpassed all other southerners in number (17.3%) In 1816, while visiting the south central part of the state, David Thomas noted, "Many of the settlers in this quarter are Carolinians". Two years later while in Princeton IN, he reported, "The inhabitants are principally Kentuckians". Additionally, Issac Reed identified numerous Kentuckians at New Albany in 1818. The next year Edward Dana noted about Wayne County," Many of the settlers are from North Carolina". Dana also noted the Virginians living in Clark County in 1818. Karl Postel noted in 1818, Kentuckians filled Indiana "in the south, on the banks of the Ohio River, and farther up..." Issac Reed study concludes that the population mix of Indiana residents are mix of every quarter SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER". One final point: By 1850 Germans accounted for 52.5% of the foreign born in Indiana.”
Our current genealogical records indicate already that the states listed above were heavily populated with our ancestral family members - Randy Hooser.
