1852; married December 7th, 1874, before Rev. Mr. Gage, Mary Scoyule Calhoun, daughter of David Samuel Calhoun, Esq., and his wife, Harriet Antoinette (Gilbert), born July 23d, 1854, in Hartford, Conn. His avocation is carriage making, and he is supposed to be in company with his father, in his extensive establishment on Albany Avenue.

The following narrative and pedigree was kindly furnished by Rev. C. H. Hart, now of Logan, Ohio:

JOSEPH HART was born in Botetourt County, Va., June 22d, 1760. The Christian names of his father and mother I am not able to give. The maiden name of his mother was Stout. She, with a brother older than herself, came from Wales, G. B., about the year 1750, and settled in South Carolina, where a Mr. Hart was married to Miss Stout, probably in the year 1758. One child, Joseph, was born to them, and during his infancy the mother died. The father married a second time. Of his children by the second wife I can not speak. When Joseph was eighteen or twenty years of age the family moved to the colony of Tennessee, on to the French Broad River.

During the last year of the revolutionary war Joseph became a soldier in the continental army, and in the third month of his soldier life he was engaged in a battle with the British and tories, in which he was wounded in the right hip, and from which he did not recover until after peace was declared. In the year 1785 Joseph Hart was married to Miss Nancy Shanklin, of East Tennessee, and settled in Blount County, near Maryville. To them there were born six children, viz: Edward, Thomas, Elizabeth, Joseph, Gideon Blackburn, and Silas. In 1810 the mother died, and the father married his second wife—Miss Mary Means, of Blount County, in the year 1812. To them were born five sons, viz: William, Samuel, James Harvey, Isaac Anderson, and Charles Coffin. These eleven children were all born in Blount County, Tennessee.

In October, 1821, Mr. Hart, with his wife and four younger sons, emigrated to Indiana, and settled on Clifty Creek, in Bartholomew County. Here Gideon B. soon joined the family, he having gone to Vincennes, on the Wabash, the year before. Before leaving Tennessee Isaac Anderson, the ninth son, was choked to death with a grain of coffee before he was two years old. William, the sixth son, was drowned in Clifty Creek while bathing, June 6th, 1826, aged 14 years. Mr. Hart buried his second wife September 11th, 1827.

The most remarkable feature of Joseph Hart’s character was his deep, fervent, practical piety. He was converted in early life, and for
