This is a genealogy of the descendants of this Frederick Husk (or Hust, or Hurst), with particular emphasis on those branches of the family tree closest to the principal compilers, Samuel David Gaston and Geneva Gaston Brown. The information presented here was obtained from countless sources over many years of research. Wherever possible, the original source is documented, but the reader can rest assured that even when a source is not specified, the compilers were highly confident of the accuracy of the information before including it in this collection.
Though not proven, the following Husk family is probably connected to the Husk lineage which is the focus of this genealogy. They are more fully described at http://www.doddridgecountyroots.com/bk6html/f20121.html :
1. Isaac Husk, b. ca 1838 in Pennsylvania, 1850 & 1860 Census in Monongalia Co, 1870 & 1880 Census in Washington Co Pa.
m. Elizabeth
Johnson, b. ca 1837 in
m. Louisa Wharton
Children by first wife:
2. William Johnson Husk, b. 1859 in Monongalia
Co, (W)
m. Ida Roberta McIntyre in 1885 in Tyler Co WVa, b. 1867 in Tyler Co, d. 1936 in Tyler Co.
They had 12
children: Ethel Leora, Nancy Louisa,

If any reader of this genealogy knows how this Husk family is connected to our primary Husk lineage, please let us know.
Despite extensive research in more recent years, nothing about the ancestors of the elder Frederick Husk (or Hust, or Hurst) has been discovered. Information on the earliest of his descendants has also been very hard to come by. However, this genealogy is, and always will be, a work in progress, and additional information regarding the early generations, as well as the current one, will be added as it becomes known. In that vein, readers of this collection are invited to inform us of any errors or additional information for future updates.

The exact history of the original charcoal of the widely-distributed formal portrait of the elderly Isaac Husk has not been determined.

Following Sam's death in 2012, it was handed down to his nephew and Isaac's g-g-grandson, Renee L. Brown, with whom Sam had collaborated on this genealogy for so many years.

Laura: Identified in birth record index as "Lillia," but actual record has it as "Lilla," with date of birth Aug 27 1904. Identified in 1904 marriage record with Howard Ross as Laura Cumpston, and her death record identifies her as Laura G. Ross, with date of birth stated as Jul 26 1904. But age at death is given as 17y10m10d, which would put birth date at Jul 27 1904. In any event, the birth data given in her death record is in conflict with the birth record and is considered to be incorrect. She is identified in the obituary of her sister Virta as Laura Cumpston, rather than by her married name Ross. Virta's obituary also lists an additional predeceased sister, Jane Cumpston.

Some researchers have identified George A. Ross (1859-1951), buried at Blandville, Doddridge Co, as the husband of Margaret Lucretia Husk. This is incorrect, as evidenced by courthouse records, by information in "The History of Doddridge County," p. 76, by her headstone identifying her as the wife of J. S. Ross, and by the obituary of James Samuel Ross, son of the George A. Ross in question. Margaret Lucretia Husk's husband was actually this James Samuel Ross. Following Margaret's death, James Samuel Ross married Cansada Skinner, who was previously married to George Riley Ross, who was born ca 1865 in Bath Co, VA and whose relationship to this Ross family is unknown. Doddridge County marriage records also show that the George A. Ross in question, who also was born in Bath Co, VA, married at least twice: First to Emma Elizabeth Putnam (or Putman) in 1881, then to Brida Sutton in 1897, and then to Sarah Melissa Greathouse in 1920.

John: Despite the double-R spelling of his last name on his headstone, all other records have the spelling as Perine, with just one R. It is surmised that he adopted the double-R spelling at some point, as his children seem generally to have had that form of the name, although his obituary preserved the single-R form for himself and all others. The double-R spelling was also used in his wife's obituary in Dec 1979.

[136] 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.)

another child, Oscie Myrtle Husk, on Sep 23 1893, entry recorded on Dec 30 1893
also. While it is clear that W. O. is a

at the time of recording. Since Oscie's

Childbed fever is more properly known as puerperal fever, a bacterial
infection contracted by women during childbirth or miscarriage. It can develop into puerperal sepsis, which
is a serious form of septicaemia. If
untreated, it is often fatal. From the
1600s through the mid to late 1800s, the majority of childbed fever cases were
caused by the doctors themselves. With
no knowledge of germs, doctors did not believe hand washing was needed. Statements like that of Dr. Charles Meigs, a

The original entry in the typed transcribed ledger-style birth record
has her birth date as June 25 1885, but affidavit submitted by uncle David Dow
Gaston in the 1940's corrected it to January 25 1885. Regardless, this the same daughter identifed
in the 1900 Census as Denovas M. Hart, born Jan 1882, and in Andrew N. Hart's
obituary as Denova M. Smith of Clarksburg.
She is identified in her death record as Mintus D. Smith, b. Jan 25
1885, dau of Andrew N. Hart & Emmaline Britton. Although the Jan 1882 birth date is more
likely, we report the Jan 25 1885 date here to conform to the official records.
