Henry Harrison Hukill, 1823-1871


Henry Harrison HukillHenry Harrison HUKILL first married Eliza F. OVERTURF, 1850, Ripley Co., IN. Henry was 27 years old and the son of a local judge. According to the 1850 U.S. census for Brown Twp., Ripley Co., IN, Henry was a cooper [someone who makes or repairs wooden casks or tubs]. Henry's was the last household enumerated in that township. His father, Henry B. Hukill, was the census taker and had begun his part of the census with himself, and ended with his son Henry H.

Three years after he married Eliza, he was the widowed father of a two-year-old girl and a new born infant son. In another 15 days, his newborn son had died.

Nine months after burying his first wife, Henry married again to 21-year-old
Mary Ann WISE. With Mary Ann, Henry had nine more children. When he died of malaria at age 48, his youngest child was seven months old. That child died four months after Henry.

There is a Henry H. Hukill who served in the Civil War, 15 Iowa, as a Private in the Union Army. Records need to be checked to determine whether it was the same Henry H. Hukill. From 1856 until at least 1865, it appears that our Henry was in Iowa. He would have been 38, married, and a father when the Civil War broke out in 1861.
