By Howard H. Hasting, Sr.

JOSEPH HASTING OF WHITE COUNTY, TENNESSEE

          JOSEPH HASTING (9 Jan 1780 to about 1830) son of Daniel Hasting (1735 to 1826) of White and Van Buren Counties, Tennessee, married Sarah Ann Creely (7 Nov 1788 to after 1855). The birthdays of Joseph and Sarah Ann were found in a family Bible now in the possession of Joe Walker of Van Buren County, Tennessee, a relative.
          In the Library at Nashville, Tennessee, may be found a copy of the Knox County Court Minutes, Vol. 3 dating from 1800 to 1802, and at page 101, in the case of Samuel Cowan v. Joseph Hastings, Oct. 1800, in a summary of the case, the following is found: " * * * leased the said lot of land to a certain Daniel Hastin, the father of said Joseph."
          John Sevier, Governor of Tennessee, on 27 Sept. 1808, executed a deed conveying to Joseph Hastings 50 acres in the 3rd District of White County, "on the Big Spring Branch." (Book "A" p. 219 of the State Land Records and Book "B" at p. 64 of the Deed Records of White County, Tenn.) That deed was executed at Knoxville. On the previous day, John Sevier executed a deed to Daniel Haston a tract of 150 acres described a "lying * * * on the Big Spring Branch of Cane Creek, on the main fork of Cany Fork: Beginning at a White Oak standing on the bank of Big Spring Branch, on a conditional line of "Joseph Hasting" and Jacob Mitchell's beginning corner, etc." The habendum claus was, "To Have and To Hold the said tract * * * to the said "Daniel Hasting" and his heirs forever." (Book "A" at p. 224 of the State Land Records and Book "C" at p. 108 of the Deed Records of White County, Tenn.) The lands so conveyed became part of the Van Buren County, Tenn., when that county was organized between 1840 and 1850 from parts of White, Warren and Bledsoe Counties. John Sevier was not the first governor of Tennessee. When the Territory became a state in 1796, William Blount continued to serve as governor of the territory and of the new state until John Sevier was elected governor in 1796 to serve until 1801. Then, Archibald Roan served from 1801 to 1803, and John Sevier was again elected and served as Governor of Tennessee from 1803 to 1809. The first constitutional convention for Tennessee was held at Knoxville and that city was the center of the State government until about 1812 when the state legislature began to assemble at Nashville.
           The first census taken in Tennessee which is available to us was that of 1820. Daniel Hasting and his family, David Hasting and his family, Isaac Hasting and his family and Joseph Hasting and his family were all listed in the 1820 census taken in White County, Tennessee, and all were listed in the same district. Joseph's family was shown, as follows:
 

          Joseph made his will on 23 July 1827, leaving everything to wife, Sarah Ann for use in raising his children. He evidently, died between 1820 and 1830. He was not listed in the 1830 census taken in White County. His will was admitted to probate in 1835 only after his son, Isaac brought an action to force Sarah Ann to present the will for probate. (See Probate Records of White County, Tenn.) (Will Record "B" at p. 191.). The Census for 1830 taken in White County, Tennessee, listed Joseph's family, as follows:
 

          Sarah Ann, joined by her children, Malinda, James A. and Isaac, conveyed land--66 acres--to Charles T. Shockley and William Denny on September 10, 1837, and 20 acres to Charles Shockley on September 14, 1837.  (See Deed Record "B" at pp. 605 and 606, Van Buren County.)  The Census for 1840 taken in White County, Tennessee, lists Joseph's family as follows:
 

          Joseph and Sarah Ann are buried in Big Fork Cemetery in Van Buren County, Tennessee, but their graves are not marked.

ISAAC HASTON

See Joseph Haston Timeline for More Info.

          ISAAC HASTON (1812 to 1850 or thereabouts) son of Joseph Haston (or Hasting) (9 Jan. 1780) and Sarah Ann Creely (7 Nov. 1788) was born in White County, Tennessee. The record of the Court of Common Pleas and Quarter Sessions within and for White County, Tenn., held at Sparta on 13 Jul. 1835, shows that an action between Isaac Haston, heir at law of Joseph Haston, and Sarah Haston, widow of Joseph Haston, deceased, was determined and Sarah was ordered to probate the will of Joseph Haston. The will was duly probated on 12 October 1835. (See Inventories & Wills 1831-1840 p. 192). Isaac married Emeline King (1813 to            ). Their family was listed in the Federal Census taken in Van Buren County, Tennessee, as follows:

          It appears that Isaac had died and John E. and James T. had married between the 1850 and 1860 Censuses. What became of Isaac M.? Well, he was working for and living with William Carroll Haston's family and was listed with that family. William Carroll Haston lived nearby, according to the numbers assigned to the houses by the census-taker to show the order in which they were visited. He numbered Emily's house 87 and W.C. Haston's house was 89. House Number 88 was that of Nancy Stipe, widow of Joseph Stipe, uncle of James T. Haston's wife, Elizabeth. Howard H. Hasting (23 Mar 1905) visited this community in July 1951. Joe Thompson, of Sparta, an old man who had been raised from a small boy by W.C. Haston, pointed out the "Sary Haston Home," the Stipe place, and home of W.C. Haston. They were all located in that order along the old original road. The "Big Spring" mentioned in the land grants to Joseph and Daniel Hasting (Haston) was also shown by Joe Thompson. It was on W.C. "Carroll" Haston's land, just off the road and between "Sary's," or Joseph's, and "Carroll's" home place. We know that Isaac married Emeline King because of a letter posted by Elizabeth Jane Stipe Hasting (his daughter-in-law) to Miss. Mary Goodwin at Bunker Hill, Ill., from Elmwood, Arkansas, on 25 Aug. 1902, in which Elizabeth said that Isaac "Hasting" and Emily King were the father and mother of her husband, James T. "Hasting." It appears that Miss Mary Goodwin, of Bunker Hill, Ill., addressed the letter to Elizabeth Jane Stipe Hasting, and requested, "Kindly fill blanks and return to (Miss.) Mary Goodwin, Bunker Hill, Ill." The blanks were filled as follows:
             Name-     "Elizabeth Stipe."

The letter thus filled out was posted back to Miss. Goodwin on 25 Aug. 1902 at Elmwood.

          SAMUEL WOOD (      to         ) was an immigrant to this country. He married Sarah Reives. The youngest of their seven sons was George Wood, who was born 10 Sept. 1787 in Washington County, N.C., which is Washington County, Tennessee.  Samuel Wood is listed on page 758 of the Patriot Index, published by the N.S.D.A.R., and through the years many of his descendants have joined that patriotic organization. George Wood married Elizabeth Irwin, and one of their children was Nancy Wood, born in April 1809 in Cumberland County, Kentucky. Samuel Wood came to the Colonies from England in 1755.

          GEORGE WOOD (10 Sep. 1787 to 24 Feb. 1854) son of Samuel Wood and Sarah Reives Wood, was born in Washington County, North Carolina, which is now Washington County, Tennessee. He married Elizabeth Irwin, daughter of Squire Irwin. Elizabeth was born in Pennsylvania on 13 Oct. 1785 and died in Van Buren County, Tennessee, on 11 Mar. 1857. George and Elizabeth are buried in McElroy Cemetery in Van Buren County, Tenn.

          JACOB STIPE (1771 to 1858) was born in Virginia. His wife's name was Rebecca (1786 to     ) born in Tenn. They were shown in the 1850 Census for Van Burn County, Tenn.

          They were the parents of Thomas J. Stipe, born in Tenn., in 1809, but we do not know for sure who their other children may have been.     

          THOMAS J. STIPE (        1809 to         ) son of Jacob Stipe (1771) and his wife, Rebecca (1786) was born in Tenn. And married in 1833-4 to Nancy Wood (      Apr. 1809 to 22 Jan. 1854) daughter of George Wood (1787) and Elizabeth Irwin (13 Oct. 1785).

          Wm.L. (Bill) Wood of Rt. 2 Box 89 Strafford, Mo., 65757 has furnished us a more detailed listing of the family of Thomas J. Stipe as follows:

   Other members of the Stipe family were shown in the 1850 Census.

          JOHN E. HASTON (      1832 to          ) son of Isaac Haston(1812 to 1850 or thereabouts) and Emeline King (1813), married Polly Ann Mooneyham (1855) but if they had any children they are unknown to us at this time.

          JAMES THOMAS HASTING (8 June 1836 to 31 may 1889) son of Isaac Haston (1812 to 1850 or thereabouts) and Emeline King (1813) was born in what is now Van Buren County, Tennessee.

          The records of Van Buren County, Tennessee, show that James was appointed a Road Overseer at the April Term of Court in 1870, and also show that he signed a marriage bond for his brother, Isaac M. Haston (1846) to marry Sarah Hootan. The date was 19 December 1869. Cora Hastings Finley (1975) recalled in 1950 that her "Uncle Jim" was living in Lincoln County, Tennessee, when she was born there on 7 Apr 1875. Therefore James moved his family to Lincoln County, Tennessee, between 1870 and 1875. James' oldest son, Isaac Thomas Hasting (1858) married in Lincoln County, Tennessee, on 12 August 1877 (Lincoln County, Tenn., Marriage Record Book 1871-90 p. 160). Isaac's oldest son, James Isaac Hasting (1879) informed his son, Howard H. Hasting (1905) on many occasions that he was born in Lincoln County, Tennessee, on 26 Oct. 1879, "just ten days before the family left that county to go to Arkansas." According to Cora (above) the family lived on a farm about four miles South of Fayetteville, in Lincoln County, at that time. The Federal Census for Van Buren County, Tennessee, did not list James' family, and neither did that for Lincoln County, Tennessee, for 1880, but the census taken in Yell County, Arkansas, on 5 June 1880 for Galley Rock, Township of that County, did.

          James Thomas Hasting resided in Van Buren County, Tennessee, from his birth on 8 June 1836 until after the Census was taken there in 1870, but that sometime between that time and 1875, he moved to Lincoln County, Tennessee, where he lived until the early part of November, 1879, when he began his move to Yell County, Arkansas, where we find him June 1880 when the Census was taken there. As I have shown the family went by the name of "Haston," in Tenn., and for a time after arriving in Arkansas. James Isaac Hasting (1879) more than once, explained to his son, Howard H. Hasting (1905), that after arriving in Arkansas, the family held what he called "a family meeting," at which it was agreed that thereafter all would go by the name of "Hasting," because that was the correct name--as they understood--when the family first came to Tennessee. At any rate, the family--all those who came to Arkansas--thereafter have been known by the name of "Hasting," except that some have added an "s" making the name "Hastings."

          James Thomas Hasting (Haston, then) who was at the beginning of the Civil War (4:30 a.m. 13 April 1861, Ft. Sumter was fired upon) 24 years of age. He and his brothers, who were old enough "to go to war," along with his kind, John T. Haston, John L. Haston, Richmond Haston, and James Me. Haston, and others--some 14 in number--rode into Chattanooga on 14 June 1862 and enlisted in a body into the Confederate Cavalry then being organized by Colonel John P. Murry, which organization was known as "Murry's Cavalry." They saw considerable action, James became a corporal. The others were Privates. (Old Adjutant General's Files, Archives Building, Washington, D.C.). Elizabeth often mentioned the hardships which she was forced to endure during the absence of James. She told how she was obliged to guard her meager food supply with a rifle to prevent it from falling into the hands of "Bushwackers," and how she labored in the field to feed her children. Her description of James' homecoming is a vivid portrayal of the times. She was working in the field when James appeared. He walked up to her and took over her task. No word was spoken. She turned and walked away to her house.

          The lowlands of Yell County, Arkansas, which is in the valley of the Arkansas River, were very unhealthy in those days. James determined to and did move again and settled in Boone County, Arkansas, in the Ozark Mountains, on a farm at Cross Roads. This was sometime before 18887. The remainder of his days were spent as a farmer at that place. His tombstone may be found in the Cross Roads Cemetery, beside that of his wife, Elizabeth Stipe Hasting.

          ISAAC NORTHCUTT (20 Mar 1833 to 24 Feb. 1898) was born in Warren County, Tennessee, near Jasper. His father was killed in a fight when Isaac was a small boy and he was raised by one of his uncles. Isaac married in Warren County, Tenn., on 3 January 1855 to Philia Ann Stotts (22 January 1837 to 10 January 1897). (See Warren County Marriage Record "A" at p. 22). Philia Ann was of Swiss descent. She descended from a member of a Swiss Colony in Grundy County, Tenn. Isaac enlisted in the Union Army in Company "E", 1st Regiment of Alabama and Tennessee Independent Vidette Cavalry, at Altmont, Tenn., on 6 October 1863 and served until 16 June 1864. His record shows that he was 5 ft. 10 ins., with blue eyes, sandy hair, and that he became a Corporal on 21 January 1864. (Old Adjutant General's Files, Archives Bldg., Washington, D.C.)

          Ike and Philia Ann are buried in the Shepherd Cemetery in Yell County, Arkansas. We know that Isaac Thomas Hasting (20 Dec. 1858) married Ike's daughter, Lucy Ann (10 Oct. 1859) in Lincoln County, Tennessee, on 12 Aug. 1877. We also know that Ike had deeded to him the E1/2 Lot 2 NE 1/4 and W 1/2 Lot 2 NE 1/4 of Sec. T, Twp. T N., R.20 W in Yell County, Arkansas on 25 Dec. 1881. Thus, in the 4 year period 12 Aug 1877 to 25 Dec. 1881, Ike moved from Lincoln County, Tennessee, to Yell County, Arkansas. Ike also had deeded to him on 8 Dec. 188, 40 more acres, i.e. E1/2 Lot 1 NE1/4 Sec. 6, Twp. 5 N., R. 20 W, in Yell County, Arkansas. This land is now in possession of one of his grandchildren.
          It is said that Ike would not give his consent to the marriage to Isaac Thomas Hasting (20 Dec. 1858) of his daughter, Lucy Ann, because Isaac Thomas Hasting was the son of a "Rebel," and he referred to his grandson, James Isaac Hasting (26 Oct. 1879) as "my little Rebel."

          ISAAC THOMAS HASTING (20 December 1858 to 1 April 1917) son of James Thomas Hasting (1836) and his wife, Elizabeth Stipe Hasting (1835) was born in Van Buren County, Tennessee, on a farm near Bone Cave. His father moved the family to Lincoln County, Tennessee, between 1870 and 1875 and from there to Yell County, Arkansas, in late 1879. Isaac Thomas was known as "Tom," and that, probably, is the reason that his name is shown on his grave-stone in Cross Roads Cemetery in Boone County, Arkansas, as Thomas Isaac Hasting instead of his correct name of Isaac Thomas Hasting. "Tom" was approaching his 19th birthday when he went to the county seat of Lincoln County, Tennessee, at Fayetteville Tennessee, and obtained a license to marry Lucy Ann Northcutt (10 Oct. 1859 to 7 July 1881). They were married by a Justice of the Peace of Lincoln County on 12 August 1877. (Lincoln County, Tenn., Marriage Record, 1871-90, p. 160) Lucy Ann was the third child of Isaac Northcutt (1833) and Philia Ann Stotts (1837). Lucy Ann died on 7 Jul. 1881 and she is buried in the Shepherd Cemetery, 11 miles South of Dardanelle on the Old Danville Road in Yell County, Arkansas.

Shortly after the death of Lucy Ann, Isaac Thomas "Tom" moved with his infant son, James Isaac and probably other members of his family to Boone County, Arkansas, and settled in a little Community known as Cross-Roads, South of Harrison, where he bought a small farm on Crooked Creek.
          The Deed Records of Boone County, Arkansas, at the court house in Harrison, at p. 124 of Volume "H" show that I.T.Hastin purchased from B.B.Hudgins and wife, Josephine, a part of the NE1/4 SE 1/4 of Sec. 33 Twp. 18 N. Range 20 West on 25 Dec. 1884 for the sun of $215 cash and $35.00 to be paid later. The part so purchased contained 27 acres situated on Crooked Creek and described as the Louise Lane Tract. "Tom" built his residence on the mountain on the North of Crooked Creek and spent the remainder of his days there.
          On 9 October, 1887, Tom married again--this time to Florence Woodmore (21 Jan. 1866 to 22 Dec. 1930). (See Boone County, Marriage Record "C" at p. 13). Florence was born in Obion County, Tennessee, the daughter of Dr. F.Woodmore and his wife, Sarah. Florence had the following brothers and sisters:
          Inez Woodmore (1868)
          Nettie Woodmore (1869)
          Daisy Woodmore
          Jennie Woodmore
          Rose Woodmore
          Robert Woodmore
                     Woodmore, a sister, who married a Lytle.
          Tom received an injury from which he never recovered. He merely lingered and wasted away, finally dying years later from an hemorrhage. He and his wife, Florence, are buried in the Cross-Roads Cemetery, which is located on the farm purchased by Tom, as related above.

          JAMES ISAAC HASTING (26 Oct. 1879 to 22 Nov. 1947) son of Isaac Thomas Hasting (1858) and Lucy Ann Northcutt (1859) was born in Lincoln County, Tenn., just ten days before his family began the move to Yell County, Arkansas.

"Jim's" mother, Lucy Ann Northcutt, died in Yell County, Arkansas, on 7 July 1881 and was buried in Shepherd Cemetery in that County. At her death Jim was only 1 year of age, going on 2. His father moved to the Cross-Roads Community sometime before 1884--as he purchased the 27 acre farm on which he made his home thereafter and where "Jim" grew to manhood in 1884.
          While in his "teens", Jim went to live with and work for Joel Hillman Wooley, a wealthy farmer of the Watkins Community of Boone County, Arkansas. He became enamored with "Hillman's" adopted daughter, Clarence Woolley (13 August 1883 to 21 Mar 1900). They were married on Jim's twentieth birthday. (Boone County Marriage Record "G" p. 183). However, Clarence died the following Spring, of pneumonia, without issue. She is buried in the Eoff Cemetery, 8 miles Southeast of Harrison. Jim and Hillman remained intimate friends and business partners until death. The marriage license for the marriage of "James Hasting of Elmwood" and "Clarence Woolley of Watkins" was received by Howard H. Hasting Sr. (23 Mar. 1905) from William Andy Hasting on 24 March 1954. The Boone County Clerk having kept it all those years. The license shows that "Milton Brockett Hasting" performed the marriage and made return of the license as Justice of Peace.
          After the death of Clarence, Jim moved to Bellefonte, which was only a few miles from the Woolley farm, and opened a general store there. Hillman Woolley had been a Mason for many years, as well as a Clansman, and a Confederate Soldier. Jim was initiated into the Bellefonte Masonic Lodge Number 265 on 10 January 1903.
          On 16 August 1903, Jim married Virgie Amelia Ruble (14 August 1887). (Boone County Marriage Record "I" at p. 35). Virgie was the sixth daughter of John Henry Wood Ruble (9 Jan. 1858 to 27 Dec. 1939), a Methodist Minister of Bellefonte.     
          Hillman Woolley had moved to Boone County from Jackson County, Arkansas, during the Reconstruction Period to evade the Yankee Militia, which sought his arrest because of his activities as a member of the Ku Klux Klan. He determined to return to the place of his birth. Jim decided to accompany him. On 7 December 1904, the two families departed from Bellefonte and arrived at Tupelo, Arkansas, on 15 December 1904. Hillman's wife, the former Shabie Jones, had inherited a part of the Jones Homestead upon the death of her father. Hillman purchased the remainder, and both families made their home there, until after the birth of Jim's oldest son, Howard Hillman Hasting (1905) who was named for "Grandpa" Woolley. Hillman and his wife are buried at "White Church Cemetery" located on a sand hill West of Tupelo. Hillman departed this life on 6 April 1922, to be followed by his wife, Shabie, exactly nine years later, on 6 April 1931.
          Jim reentered the mercantile business at Tupelo, Arkansas, first as a partner with John Gardner, then alone, and finally as a partner with Bryant Jones, under the firm name of "Hasting and Jones." In the Old County Court House, at Jacksonport, which has been converted to a museum, can be found some stationery bearing the firm name of "Hasting and Jones."
          In October 1912, Jim moved to Newport, Arkansas to accept a position as Chief Deputy Sheriff and Tax Collector, of Jackson County, Arkansas, which position he held until August 1916, when he moved to Weldon, Arkansas, to become a stock-holder and Secretary-Treasurer of the Weldon Merc. Co. After the latter company suffered financial reverses as a result of World War I, he moved to Diaz, Arkansas, where he was employed as a bookkeeper for Willmans Merc. Co. After being duly elected, he took office as County Clerk of Jackson County on 1 Jan. 1927. He served two terms in that office and held numerous appointed political jobs in Jackson County, Arkansas, until 1936, when he moved to Little Rock, Arkansas, to be employed by the Arkansas Highway Commission. For a time in 1943, he lived with his daughter, Elizabeth in San Antonio, Texas. During World War II, he was Accounting Clerk and General supervisor, Signal Corps, at the Pine Bluff Arsenal, at Pine Bluff, Arkansas. While living in Pine Bluff, it became necessary for him to an operation for gall stones. He never recovered from the operation and died in a hospital in Little Rock, Arkansas. His death was partially due to an old ailment. During his campaign for County Clerk I the Fall of 1926, he contracted blood poisoning in one of his feet. It spread rapidly and forced his hospitalization and violent treatment from which he never fully recovered. Jim is buried in the Graceland Cemetery at Pine Bluff, Arkansas, beside his wife. Virgie died on 1 February, 1976, at New Braunfels, Texas. Their tombstones may be located between two other prominent stones shaped as crosses--one of which is black and other white.

          HOWARD HILLMAN HASTING (23 mar 1905 to            ) son of James Isaac Hasting (1879) was born at Tubelo, Arkansas.

          MARTHA A. HASTON (1838              ) daughter of Isaac Haston (1812) and Emeline King (1813) was born in Van Buren County, Tennessee. She is listed with Isaac's family in both the 1850 and 1860 censuses in Van Buren County. It is said she married a Huddleston, and there is a tombstone in the Long Cemetery in Van Buren County, Tennessee, inscribed "Martha, wife of W.M. Huddleston, 1 Mar. 1838 to Sept. 1904."

          MILES H. HASTINGS (17 Mar. 1840 to 17 Feb. 1902) son of Isaac Haston (1812) and Emeline King (1813) was born in Van Buren County, Tennessee. The dates of his birth and death are shown upon his gravestone in the Brearley Cemetery, located on the edge of the town of Dardanelle, in Yell County, Arkansas.
          While living in Tennessee, Miles married Mary A. Shepherd (27 Sept. 1844 to 14 Jan. 1918). Her birth and death are inscribed on her tombstone in Brearley Cemetery.
          Miles and his brothers, James, William and Brockett, were inseparable, and therefore, he probably moved his family to Lincoln County, Tennessee, along with James, William and Brockett. It is certain that he moved to Yell County, Arkansas, with them in 1879. The Federal Census taken in Van Buren County, Tennessee, in 1860, is the last to list Miles. Apparently, he married between the Census for 1860 and 1870. His oldest son, Joseph, was born in 1875. We have not found his marriage record.

          Miles and his brothers and other of thir [sic] kin from Van Buren County, Tenn., rode into Chattanooga, Tenn., on 14 June 1862 and enlisted in "Murry's Cavalry," officially known as the Fourth Tennessee Cavalry, C.S.A. (Old Adj. Gens. Records, Archives Bldg., Washington, D.C.) They saw considerable action. Miles enjoyed "Court Service," and the records of Van Buren County show that he was a Constable of the Jury at the April term of the court held in that county in 1868. He is also mentioned as Road Overseer. Although Miles operated a store in Dardanelle, Arkansas, he found time to serve as a Deputy Sheriff of that County and Deputy United States Marshall.
          There was a "family meeting", held by the Haston family shortly after their arrival in Yell County, at which it was agreed that the name should be changed to "Hasting," which was considered to have been the correct name, originally. Miles went a bit further and put an "s" on his name.
           According to Pamelia "Pammie," widow of Joseph, Miles' son, Miles died of Tuberculosis at the age of 61 only one month before his next birthday.
         Mary A Shepherd, as well as Paralee Shepherd (1855) were daughters of John Shepherd, Jr. (10 May 1810 to 2 July 1880). Paralee married William Henderson Hastings (1844). Thus, Miles and his brother married sisters.

          JOHN SHEPHERD (10 May 1810 to 2 Jul. 1880) was born in Virginia. On 15 April 1832, he married Temperance Epps (23 May 1813 to 20 Feb. 1891). Temperance was born in North Carolina. The Census taken in White County, Tenn., lists the family of John Shepherd, Jr.

          It would appear that John Shepherd moved from North Carolina to Tenn.  Between 1851 and 1855, but this not necessarily so; for that part of Tenn. Which was later incorporated into White County, Tenn., was, in face, a part of the North Carolina Territory in those early days up until Tennessee was admitted into the Union in 1796.
          A History of Yell County, Arkansas, by Wayne Banks, contains the following:

"G.M. Shepherd, a long time resident of Magazine Township  was born in North Carolina in 1847.  His father, John Shepherd, was born in Virginia, 10 May 1810, and his mother, Temperance Epps Shepherd, was born in the Old North State on 23 May 1814--they being united in marriage 16 April 1832, to become the parents of eleven children.  Mr. Shepherd followed farming as a business being located in what is now known as the Old Omega Community.  The name of Shepherd, will forever be identified with this place for it was along Shepherd Ridge that the family began to bury its dead, and together with other neighbors who suffered losses of loved ones a large cemetery has been set aside.
 
"Mr. Shepherd entered into Holy Wedlock with Miss. Margaret Haston 17 January 1869.  She was born in Tennessee 5 December 1850, as a daughter of W. C. and Jane Denny Haston, who were natives of Tennessee. Her father being successful in various enterprises in Van Buren County, Tennessee, being sheriff four years, also county judge and magistrate. To this union of Mr. And Mrs. Shepherd were born the following family: Martha J., wife of J.A. Blankenship, Temperance, Dalton, Fannie M., John C. and William C."

          A "sketch" of William Carroll Haston taken from a Biographical Record of the Cumberland Region by George A. Ogle & Co., of Chicago, now on file in the Library of Congress under No. F 443 C8 M5, published in 1898, contains the following:

"The only educational advantages William C. Hastons received were such as the local schools of his day afforded; but his training at farm work was not so meager, and he early became a thrifty and industrious farmer. He was married, Dec. 3, 1848, to Miss Jane Denny, who was born in Van Buren County, April 27, 1829, a daughter of William and Patty Burnett Denney. They became the parents of the following children:
     Charles T., who married Miss. Ellet Morgan and lives in 
          White County, Tenn.;
     Maggie, wife of Dr. Shepherd, of Yell County, Ark.;
     David L, who married Miss. Tabitha Davis and lives in Hickory, 
          White County;
     William C., who married Lobelia Morgan and is now deceased;
     Sarah and John, both deceased;
     Sophia, wife of Frank Davis of Van Buren County, living near her 
          father's old home and
     Mollie, deceased."

          "Dr." Shepherd was Green Madison Franklin Alexander Shepherd who was known as "Doc" for short. He was not a doctor.  He married Margaret "Maggie" Haston on 17 Jan. 1860.  She was born 5 Dec. 1850 and died 11 Jan. 1924.  Her full name was Margaret Ann Haston before marriage.  George Madison Shepherd "Doc" was born 1 June 1847 and died 17 Nov. 1938.  Both are buried in the Brearley Cemetery and the dates were taken from their grave-stones.

          John Shepherd, Jr. was born 10 May 1810 and died 2 Jul. 18180. He wife, Temperance, was born 23 May 1814        and died 20 Feb. 1891. They are buried in the Shepherd Cemetery on Shepherd Ridge, about 11 miles South of Dardanelle on the Old Danville Rd. in Yell County, Arkansas.
   
          A word about "Dalton" Shepherd. He went back to Tennessee to visit his grandparents and died while on that visit. Joe Thompson, who claimed to have been "raised by the Hastons," pointed out Dalton's grave to Howard H. Hasting (23 mar. 1905) and explained that Dalton died from eating "too many green plums." The grave, properly marked with a good headstone, is back of William Carroll Haston's home house on his farm in a private cemetery in Van Buren County, near Sparta, Tennessee.

          JOSEPH BURNETT HASTINGS (15 Sept. 1865 to 29 Feb. 1920) son of Miles Hastings (1840) and Mary Shepherd (1844) was born in Van Buren County, Tennessee. He was very young when his father moved to Lincoln County, Tennessee, and only 14 years of age when the family moved to Yell County, Arkansas. He married in Yell County, Arkansas, on 16 Jan. 1889, to Pamelia "Pammie" Moore (1 Feb. 1870 to 5 Nov. 1956) (See Yell County Marriage Record "F" at Dardanelle)

His daughter, Cora Finley, recalled in 1950 that they visited Fayetteville, the county seat, to see a circus. According to her, they lived four miles southeast of Fayetteville and that it was necessary to cross the Elk River to get to Fayetteville. She claimed to have been born in Lincoln County. On 14 June 1862, Billy and his brothers enlisted in "Murry's" Cavalry, officially known as the Fourth Tennessee Cavalry, C.S.A. (Old Adjutant General's Records, Archives Building, Washington, D.C.)
          After moving to Yell County, Arkansas, with his brothers, Billy changed his name from Haston to Hasting--as it was agreed at a "family" meeting that Hasting was the original name--and he later added an "s" to make it Hastings.

          After the death of Paralee, Billy moved to Boone County, Arkansas, where he died of cancer.

Stipe (1853) daughter of William Stipe (1815) and his wife, Malinda (1819). Parzettie was a granddaughter of Jacob Stipe (1770) who is buried in the Gravel Hill Cemetery in Van Buren County, Tennessee. She was, therefore, a cousin to Elizabeth Stipe (1835) who married James Thomas Hasting (1836) a brother to "Brockett".
Brockett served in the Confederate Cavalry along with his brothers and other kin, being a member of "Murry's Cavalry". After the war, he moved with his brothers to Lincoln County, Tennessee, and then to Yell County, Arkansas. He later moved to Boone County, Arkansas, and lived near Cross Roads in that County. Parzettie¹s mother, Malinda (1819) came to live with Brockett, while he and Parzettie were living in Yell County, Arkansas.

          Charles Kingkade (1871) was adopted by Brockett. Cora Hastings (1875) says "Brockett raised him a Hasting."

See Joseph Haston Timeline for More Info.

          JOHN C. HASTON (1821 to                  ) son of Joseph Haston or Hasting (1780) and Sarah Ann Creely (1788) married Arnetta Howard (1832) in Van Buren County, Tenn.
 

JOSEPH C. HASTON

See Joseph Haston Timeline for More Info.

          JOSEPH C. HASTON (1823 to after 1850) son of Joseph Haston or Hasting (1780) and Sarah Ann Creely (1788) was born in that part of White County later transferred to Van Buren County, Tenn. He married Martha Ann Denney on 3 July 1845.
 

SARAH JANE HASTON

See Joseph Haston Timeline for More Info.

          SARAH JANE  HASTON (1827              ) daughter of Joseph Haston (1780) and Sarah Ann Creely (1788) was born in that part of White County later transferred to Van Buren County. On 13 March 1853, she married Jonathon Blankenship.
 

          Seems that a lot of things happened after the 1850 Census was taken as shown above. Sarah Jane marred on 13 Mar. 1853. We do not find Sarah Ann Creely Hastion in the 1860 Census, so we presume she had passed away. We know she was alive in 1855 because she executed a deed, 6 No. 1855, transferring 9 acres of land to John Stewart. (See Deed Record Book "B" at p. 496, Van Buren County, Tenn.) Amanda Hastion married William Leonard Dale on 13 Mar 1858.

AMANDA HASTON

See Joseph Haston Timeline for More Info.

          AMANDA HASTON (1831              ) daughter of Joseph Haston (1780) and Sarah Ann Creely (1788) was born Amanda Creely Haston, in that part of White County, Tenn., later transferred to Van Buren County, Tenn. She married on 13 Mar. 1858 to William Leonard Dale (1837 to 1864). William Leonard Dale was killed by Bushwackers [sic] in 1864.
          Just when Malinda and her sister Amanda brought their families to Yell County, Arkansas, we do not know at this time--but they did so. They have descendants living at this time in and around Danville, Ola [sic] and other parts of Arkansas.
 

         SO ENDS THE TALE OF JOSEPH "HASTIN" "HASTIN" "HASTION" OR "HASTON," SON OF DANIEL, AND HIS OFFSPRING.
