Hiram fathered 12 children; 8 by first wife Elizabeth Todd, 0 by second wife Elizabeth Lewis; 4 by Elizabeth (Knox) Wood; he adopted Elizabeth and Frederick Wood's five children.
He was away from home preaching his sermons in the Baptist churches he founded plus the many civic duties he attended. He settled on the 160 acre claim in 1855 in Otoe County, Nebraska. There in the rich soil he prospered and as the children grew they learned to farm. Hiram educated his children many years before the schools opened. (courtesy virlee88 Ancestry page)
