| 614 | Elizabeth Hood b. probably about 1742, d. - . Believed to have married Richard Hougland (Hogeland) of Bed¬ ford County, Pennsylvania. Found in the court records of old Berkeley County, Virginia (now West Virginia) , is record of a deed by Richard Hougland (Hogeland) and wife Elizabeth, to John Boyd conveying 1,175 acres of land on west side of Tuliasis branch, Berkeley County, Virginia, said land having been originally granted to John Hood, November 12, 1735, and acquired by Houg¬ land December 11, 1770. There is some inconsistency here as to the actual number of acres acquired by Houg¬ land, as other record show that John Hood sold 500 or more acres of the tract to his brother-in-law, Barent Nieuwkerk (Barnet Newkirk) , and that both Rachel Hood, widow of John Hood, and Tunis Hood, their son, also sold the remainder of the land in various different tracts. Nevertheless, the strong indication is that Eliza¬ beth, wife of Richard Hougland (Hogeland) was in fact, Elizabeth, daughter of Tunis Hood Sr. and Eliza¬ beth Harrison. In the Mecklenburg County, N. C., court records, Tunis and Mary Hogeland deeded 163 acres of land to Tunis Hood, Jr.? in October, 1789, and also 50 acres to Tunis Hood in the same month. This Tunis Hogeland also appears in the Federal census for adjoin¬ ing Iredell County for the year 1790. He is believed to have been a son of Richard Hougland (Hogeland) and Elizabeth Hood. In his Will, Tunis Hood Sr. stated that his daughter Elizabeth was then living in Fort Natches, presumably Natchez, Mississippi. In any event, there was a close relationship between those Hogelands and Tunis Hood. The Tunis and Hood Family: Its lineage and traditions. By Dellman O. Hood.

| 628 | Escapes From County Jail By Picking Locks On Window Leland Carpenter last night proved himself to be a very ingenious gentleman. Using nothing but a piece of teaspoon and a short piece of wire, he picked two locks, securing the barred widow of his cell in the county jail, lowered himself to the roof of the small porch on the east side, and dropped 15 feet to the ground. This happened some time last night and thus far there is no trace of the fugitive. He left the instruments used in making his escape, but carried the locks away with him. Carpenter, who is charged with bigamy, was confined in the debtors cell, which is a room by itself on the eat side of the upper corridor. He was thus isolated because of being afflicted with a loathsome blood disease. It was the same cell in which John Christmus, colored wife murderer, spent his last days before being executed in October, 1921. Sheriff Gray this morning, mailed out a description of the fugitive to police of all neighboring cities. Here it is: Age, 19; height, five feet 6 1/2 inches; complexion, fair; hair, dark brown; tip of middle finger on left hand missing; occupation, automobile mechanic; wore gray carp, ligh shirt, dark gray trousers and black Oxfords.

| 645 | F3. Lydia Shumate. The writer estimates she was born circa 17 63 or possibly earlier. There is some question as to whether she was the daughter of Daniel [I]'s first wife Elizabeth (Taliaferro) or his second wife Mary Elizabeth (Hoffman). Unfortunately, there is no known evidence other than her marriage to Joseph George on 11 June 1786 in Fauquier County, Virginia, and his being named in the Bond of 14 January 1802 (See copy, page C-66, Appendix C) to document her family relationship. Other than the fact she and her husband were living at the time the of bond was recorded in 1802, the writer does not know the dates their deaths. On page 199 of his book, T.F. von Stauffenberg wrote the following information about her. [T]here is very l i t t l e doubt about Lydia's parentage.' Born about 1771-1772 [Writer's Comment: She must have been at least ten years older.], she was of exactly marriageable age in 1786, when she married JOSEPH GEORGE, of the wealthy and prominent family whose lands had bordered closely upon the Shumatess' since the 1720's. Joseph George was the son of Nicholas George (who died between July and September 177 9) by Margaret (Whitson) George, who were married on 25 December 1740. Joseph was one of the younger children of this marriage, and received only livestock in his father's will, although later he appears as a taxpayer He was born after 1758, hence was only a little older than his wife. Almost immediately after their marriage, Joseph and Lydia settled down on a part of the Old Shumate acreage, her marriage portion, sandwiched between the main Daniel Shumate property and the George holdings. In 1786, after the August Court which finally ruled on the probate of Daniel's Will, Joseph was associated with his brother-in-law, Thomas Shumate, in managing the affairs of Daniel's third wife, Tabitha, and her minor children. . [Writer's Comment: The reader is reminded of the writer's arguments regarding Tabitha (Dodson) presented previously in this chapter. Thus far, we have not located the dates of death for either Joseph or Lydia, nor the names of their children. History of the Shumate Family. Robert S. Riley. 2nd edition pages 171-172. | Shumate, Lydia (I4663)
