Research Notes

  • I wonder if he is also the ancestor of the man for whom Huber Heights, Montgomery County, Ohio is named (Charles H. Huber, 1930- 29 May 2003). I wonder if he is the ancestor of the person for whom Hoover Avenue, Dayton, Montgomery County, Ohio is named. "The former Wayne Township was incorporated as the City of Huber Heights on January 23, 1981. The Huber Heights City Charter was adopted in a general election on November 8, 1983 and became effective on January 1, 1984". accessed 21 Nov 2012 http://hhoh.org/city-council/city-history.html?layout=item

    ... As to my ancestors, I know but little. If my information is correct, my grandfather, Andrew Hoover, left Germany when a boy; married Margaret Fouts, in Pennsylvania; and settled on Pipe creek in Maryland. There my father was born; and from thence, now about one hundred years ago, he removed to North Carolina, then a new country. He left eight sons and five daughters, all of whom had large families. Their descendants are mostly scattered through what we call the Western country. ...

    Andreas “Andrew” Hoover
    BIRTH 23 Jan 1723
    Ellerstadt, Landkreis Bad Dürkheim, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany
    DEATH 1794 (aged 70–71)
    Randolph County, North Carolina, USA
    BURIAL
    Hoover Cemetery
    Jackson Creek, Randolph County, North Carolina, USA

    Andrew Hoover's (Andreas Huber)baptism was recorded in a Lutheran Church book at Ellerstadt, Germany: "Anno 1723. Den 29 Jan. 1st, Jonas Huber and Seiner frau Anna Maria ein sohn gebohren und den 7ten Feb. Andreas getauft." When he was 15 years old, he immigrated to America. In 1772, Andrew travelled with his family by oxcart down the Great Wagon Road to settle near the Uwharrie River in Randolph (then Rowan/Orange) county, NC. He married Margaret Catherine Pfautz. Jacob and Jonas were the only two of their thirteen children to remain in North Carolina. The other families moved to Ohio, Indiana, and Iowa, probably because of opposition to slavery and because of disasterous floods in North Carolina in 1795 and 98. President Herbert Hoover is descended from their son John Hoover, who moved to Iowa.
    Andrew's exact burial place is not known, but a monument was erected on the burial ground, not far from this church's cemetery proper.
