HOHL/HULL's & History of Alleghany County, VA

According to A Centennial History of Alleghany County of Virginia, by Oren Frederic Morton (1857-1926), on page 206, there is mention of Peter Thomas HOHL, who married Susannah F(D)IEFFENBACK(H) in Lancaster county, Pennsylvania. It said that Susannah was the second wife of Peter Thomas HOHL and the mother of his fourteen children, but I have found differently in my research.

During the Revolution War, Peter Thomas HOHL changed his surname to HULL; moved to the Calfpasture of Virginia; and about 1763 to the Crabbottom area of Virginia.

It said there was a Peter HULL/HOHL that married Barbara Keith, and was a Captain in the Revolution War and sat in the State Legislature. I do not have a Barbara Keith in my records and not quite sure which "Peter HULL?HOHL she married.

It also mentioned other children of the pioneer were Adam, who married Esther Keister and had about ten children; William; George, who went to Greenbrier; David; John.

Another son called himself Peter HULL married a Linkenfelter, and lived in Rockbridge. This other Peter HULL had a son John, who settled in Highland county, Ohio, in 1811. A son of this John HULL was Dr. Albert Y. HULL, prominent in Iowa as an editor and abolitionist. While a member of the state legislature, he was the chief instrumentally in moving the capitol to Des Moines, where he and his father owned some land.

J. A. T. HULL, a son of Dr. HULL, was a Congressman from Iowa, and for nearly twenty years was chairman of the committee on Military affairs. John A. HULL, son of this Congressman, received the distinguished service medal in the World War for his work in the Judge advocates's department.

Henry, son of the second Peter, was born February 6, 1780, purchased the Matthew Patton farm in Pendleton, and married Hannah Harness. His children were: William (born 1803) married Irene Scott; John H. (born 1804) married Sally Lackey; Joseph (born 1806), single; Sarah C. (born 1808) married Jacob Palzell; Laban (born 1810) married Martha Tucker and went to Missouri; Eliza A. (born 1811), single; Jemima C. (born 1813), single; Rebecca A. (born 1816), single; and so on to page 207.

Like I said earlier, I do not have all the HULL's listed here with their wives and immediate families. Perhaps some of this information will ring a bell with someone out there.   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
