*John Hash I

Born ca 1744

Son and only child of Old John Hash Sr and "sickly" first wife (Elizabeth Sturgill?).
This is John 1 of 1st wife.
Named in Old John's will as son of sickly 1st wife

NOTE from researcher GINGER (THANKS)
Richard Johnson in his Hash Family Historian reported that "Old John" Hash married Eiizabeth Sturgill, crippled d/o James Sturgill and Ann Blackstone, ca 1763 and that they had one son John b 176-64 who married Doshia Sturgill.
The son John who went to Sangamon Co, IL where he d ca 1842.
I am a little skeptical of this since the French and Indian War did not end until 1763 and it was very unhealthy to be white in this area during that war.

NOTE ON TWO SONS NAMED JOHN
At that time one could name their first son, from each wife, after themselves.
Old John therefore had 2 Johns, one by each wife.

Married Theodocia Sturgill aka Docia/Doshia
or
Sarah

Children
Thomas
b ca 1792
m Drucilla Howell

Son of old John and 2nd wife.
Named in Old John will.
Born ca 1766

May have moved to Ashe Cty NC
