Sources: (1) 1850 Census, Barbour County, (W)VA. (2) Headstone - Birth date not specified, but calculated from stated age at death. (3) Doddridge County Death Records, West Union, WV, Identified as Peter Haut, age 74, died Jun 14 1883, cause of death dropsy, informant wife. Space for the decedent's parents' names was left blank. The listed date of death is at variance with the death date on his headstone, June 17 1883. (NOTE: Wes Cochran's "Doddridge County Deaths" has death date as "6/ /1882." But the original death record states Jun 14 1883, age 74. Headstone reads June 17 1883, age 73y 9m 5d.), DR Bk 3, p. 40: http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_view.aspx?Id=5046021&Type=Death.

(16) Headstone (year only) (17) Doddridge County Death Records, West Union, WV, Two conflicting death record entries have Marvel L. Haught, age 75, dying on Nov 28 1924 at Oxford of old age; and Marville L. Haught, age 78y 7m 18d, dying Dec 28 1924 at Summers of old age. The latter appears to be the more accurate and is the basis for his birthdate of May 10 1846. The Dec 28 1924 date is also given for his death in the obituary of his wife. His headstone gives only the years 1846 and 1924. Birthplace given in death record as Greene Co, PA. DR 4-81 & 2-64A. (18) Obituary of son, Despite some speculation that the middle name of David M. Haught might be Moses, the obituary of son John Homer Haught identifies his parents as "David Marion and Mary Watson Haught." (19) WV State Dept of Health, Div of Vital Statistics, Death Certificate (http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_dcsearch.aspx) (20) Immediate family. (21) Doddridge County Death Records, West Union, WV, Name listed as David B. Haught, the middle initial being an obvious error. His birthplace was given as Doddridge Co, and death place as Greene Co, PA, but it is almost certain that those should be reversed. Occupation given as "retired farmer," and marital status as widowed. Parents identified as Peter Haught (b. in Pennsylvania) and Basheba Musgrave (b. in West Virginia). Handwritten entry gives date of birth as 5/14/1843, but age at death (79y, 6m, 25d) puts birth at 5/14/1848, which coincides with other sources. Cause of death listed as tuberculosis. DR Bk 4, p. 81. (22) W. B. Haught, Genealogy of the Haught Family of America (1948), p. 166. Event Notes Note (1) In the1920 Census, son David Haught stated his father's birthplace as Pennsylvania and his mother's as West Virginia; but in the several censuses that included Peter B. Haught himself, he provided his own birthplace as Virginia. This is likely in present-day West Virginia, probably Monongalia County near the Pennsylvania border. www.doddridgecountyroots.com Name Index
