Parents were George Washington Cluck (1839-1920) and Harriet Louisa "Hattie" Standifer (1846-1938) who traveled the "Chisholm Trail" in 1871 on a cattle drive. 8-24-00 there was a dedication and unveiling of "The Pioneer Woman" in memory of Harriett "Hattie" Cluck-one of the first pioneer women to travel the Chisholm Trail. The statue is in Round Rock, Texas just north of Austin off of IH-35.

George W. and Harriett Cluck settled in this area with their family in the early 1870s, soon after they returned from a cattle drive up the Chisholm Trail. They built a log home and were leaders in the development of the Running Brushy community.

Harriett (Hattie) was the daughter of James Stuart Standifer and Caroline Randall Standifer and lived in the Live Oak Prairie (also called Rutledge settlement and Pond Springs). She attended a log schoolhouse which was built around 1850. The Rutledge family opened a store-post office and a blacksmith shop nearby. A road and stage line ran past Rutledge's store and the Pond Springs post office operated until 1880. In 1882 the Austin and Northwestern Railroad bypassed the settlement, and a new community, called Rutledge or New Rutledge, was established to the northeast

Hattie was born April 14, 1846 in Cherokee, Alabama and died March 2, 1938 in Williamson Co., TX. Hattie married George Washington Cluck June 25, 1863 in Williamson County, Texas. George was born on December 18, 1839 in Missouri and died August 23, 1920 in Williamson County, Texas.
