[80] Obituary, The
obituary of William Hart states that he was survived by six daughters, but then
lists only five: Mrs. D. L. Cox of
Cortwright Mines addition near Bridgeport, Mrs. R. T. Murray of New Milton,
Mrs. W. A. Plauger and Mrs. Mary McKinley (sic) of New Milton, and Mrs. M. O.
Reed of Bridgeport. An omitted surviving
daughter was Malinda Elizabeth Shipley.
[81] WV State Dept
of Health, Div of Vital Statistics, Death Certificate
(http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_dcsearch.aspx), Previous reporting of
William "Billy" Hart's death in 1895 was in error. That report was based on Doddridge County
Probate Records (Bk 1, p. 168) showing that on Aug 13 1895, Isaac Husk was
appointed "guardian of Rosa (sic) A. Hart, orphan of William Hart and
Sarah J. Hart." Sarah Husk Hart had
died in Jan 1879, and Isaac Husk was the child's grandfather. Billy Hart remarried his cousin Mary Catherine "Kate" Hart in Sep 1879,
and they later divorced, presumably prior to the 1895 court action for
guardianship. Harrison County Marriage Records
show that this William Hart remarried Eliza Harlow on Jan 4 1901.
Subsequent reporting of his death occurring on Jul 8 1927 was also
incorrect. That was based on a family
history survey conducted by W. Guy Tetrick in 1931 and completed by William's
nephew John W. Hart, stating that William Hart was born on June 5 1850 and died
on July 8 1927. Both of those dates have
since been found to be incorrect.
Age 19 yrs 6 months given at time of William's marriage in Apr 1870
would put birth date at about Oct 1850.
More significantly, Harrison County death records show that William
Hart, widowed, born Sep 26 1850, died Feb 14 1924 in the town of Ocean Mines
(Simpson District), burial at Mt. Zion Church Cemetery. (Headstone there is hand-inscribed with birth
date 1850, but incorrect death date of 1923.)

County WV Marriages 1856-1927 , Wes Cochran, 2515 10th Ave, Parkersburg, WV
26101 (Oct 1989), Participants identified as N. P. Husk, age 22, b. Calhoun Co,
resident of Roane Co, son of John Husk; and Francine Fowler, age 20, dau of
James & Susanna Fowler. Ceremony
held Sep 25 1893. We previously had
Nathaniel's birth as 1870 in Roane Co (source Fred Spuhler), but marriage
record information casts some doubt on that.
Nonetheless, the Calhoun birthplace does not mesh with other information
on this family and is considered suspect.
His birthplace is probably Roane Co, the same as his siblings
immediately before and after him.
