Any corrections to following appreciated -- here's my notes on the Aquilla HUFF lines in Southern Indiana:
Aquilla Colfax HUFF (1856 SpencerCo,IN - 1942 Troy,IN)
... m1. Maggie LORCH in 1883
... m2. America E. FREEMAN in 1892
Aquilla HUFF (1844 - 1922 PerryCo,IN)
... m1. Nancy Alice SALLEE in 1867
... m2. America SANDAGE in 1877
Both above were grandsons of:
Aquilla HUFF (1779 VA - 1856 Troy,IN)
... m. Mary RAWLINS
Aquilla s/o:
John HUFF, Sr. (1743 Germany? - 1844 Pittsburgh,PA)
... m. Elizabeth/Sarah DODDERIDGE
>>> John was killed by Indians at Ft.Pitt (now Pittsburgh); wife & children continued down the Ohio to settle Kentucky & Indiana.
John HUFF, Sr. also had son (among 8 known children):
John HUFF, Jr. (b. 1773)
... m1. Martha TALLAMAN bef. 1794
... m2. Mary 'Polly HARDIN IN 1835
John Jr. & Martha had son (among 8 known children):
William HUFF, Sr. (1794 Nelson/MercerCo,KY - 1841 Arkansas)
... m1. Jane LeGRAND?? (had 8 children)
... m2. Jane TAYLOR (had 3 children)
William & 2nd wife Jane had sons:
Jefferson HUFF (1838 PerryCo,IN - 1926 Toronto,KS)
Emanuel HUFF (1841 Arkansas - 1875 Ballwin, StLouisCo,MO)
Eleven Right HUFF (1848 Parkersburg,IL - 1926 Birdseye,DuboisCo,IN
(yes - there's a date discrepancy here, plus family tale handed down)
Eleven Right HUFF:
... m1. Mary Ellen SPENCER in 1867
... m2. Margaret 'Maggie' ECKERT in 1899
Eleven & Mary Ellen had sons (among 13 children):
Aquilla Monroe HUFF (1882 - 1883 Birdseye,DuboisCo,IN)
John Francis 'Frank' HUFF (1875 IN - 1918 Birdseye,DuboisCo,IN
... m. Sarah S. SIGLER
John 'Frank' & Sarah had son (among 2 known children):
Aquilla HUFF (b. 1904)
You can see where the confusion comes in.I have followed the lines of the HUFF family through many generations in more detail/dates/locations.I'd be happy to share with fellow family searchers.
