I have posted this in the past, but it has been more than 3 years ago. Hopefully someone may have new information I am seeking now.
The
Hartsock Family line starts with William
Spurrier Hartsock. Born most likely
Virginia, between 1790 and 1820. The only records uncovered at this time are the marriage record for son Isaac. Which states his parents were William
Spurrier Hartsock and Barbara
Hartsock. Census records for Isaac
Hartsock, which show his parents were born in
Virginia, and death certificate for Isaac, also showing parents born in
Virginia. There is some speculation that William
Spurrier Hartsock, descends from one of the three original
Hartsock brothers, who came to
Washington Co., Virginia. However, we do know that both Isaac and brother William H
Hartsock were born in
Virginia.
Note:
Washington County Virginia Marriages 1853 - 1880
Groom: Isaac Wesley
Hartsock, 22; single; b.
Sullivan Co. TN; res.
Washington Co., Virginia;
Miller, son of William
Spurrier and Barbara
Hartsock.
Bride: Susan
Delina Neely, 21; single; b. & res.
Washington Co., Virginia, daughter of Robert and Julia
Neely.
Minister: John H. Wallace
The 1850 Census shows " Wesley
Hartsock", age 16, a
Farmer, Catherine
Hanby, age 70, and Matilda
Gross, age 30, all living in District 67,
Washington Co., Virginia.
In the 1860 census living with Isaac Wesley
Hartsock was William H
Hartsock, age 8, b. in
Virginia. I believe he was living with Julia
Neely in the 1870 census. I believe William H
Hartsock is a brother.
Census reports reflect that both of Isaac's parents were born in
Virginia.
Kentucky Death Certificate states Isaac's name as Isaac Wesley
Hartsook, born May 6, 1835, in
Washington Co., Virginia. Father's name, William
Hartsook, born in
Virginia, Mother's name, unknown, born in
Virginia. This is consistant with the census records, which also states parents were born in
Virginia. At the time of his death, he was living at 742 S. 16th Street, Louisville, 11th
Ward, Jeferson Co., Kentucky. However, Marriages records show he was born in
Sullivan Co., Tennessee. Prior to 1800,
Sullivan Co. was part of
Washington Co., Virginia, some time before 1840,
Tennessee aquired a portion of
Washington Co., and formed
Sullivan Co., Tennessee.
