Hash Family History


HASH(E)- The Hash family came out of Philadelphia Co., Pennsylvania.  Tax lists and land records show Joseph Hash there in 1734 and William in 1773. Genealogists believe this name is a variant of Hatch or Hache (the "s" and "c" sounded the same). "Old" John Hash and family came down the Wagon Road through Shenandoah Co., Virginia, where the eldest son John, by the first wife, remained, and the others moved on later to Montgomer Co., Virginia.   William Hash and Thomas Hash, along with others are on the Enoch Osborne militia list. Oral tradition states that Hashes and Osbornes came into the New River, Virginia area together.  Old John's sons: 
  • Wm. Hash married Eleanor Osborne (daughter of Ephraim)
  • Thomas Hash married Ruth Sturgeon (Sturgill)
  • John Hash, by the 2nd wife, married Dosia Sturgeon 
  • A daughter Rebecca married Frank Sturgeon; another daughter married a Hall (grandson Richard Hall). 
Burial place for William and Eleanor is Bridle Creek Methodist Church. On the 1815 list Wm. Hash, Jr. had land on Bridle Creek and John Hash had land on Fox Creek, as did Wm. H., Sr.

My ancestor of "Old" John Hash's sons is Thomas Hash :

Thomas Hash was born February 13, 1756, in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, the son of John Hash. Late research shows John was married twice. Historians are not sure if Thomas' mother was John Hash's first wife, Elizabeth Sturgill, or the second wife, Rebecca Anderson.  I favor Rebecca Anderson as being his mother, because if his mother was a Sturgill, why would he have then married a Sturgill himself?  He was married about 1777 in Grayson County, Virginia to Ruth Sturgeon (Sturgill)  who was originally from Orange County, Virginia. Ten children were born to this couple.
During the Revolutionary War, Thomas Hash was listed as an ensign in Captain Enoch Osborn's Company from Fincastle and Montgomery (now Grayson) Counties in Virginia on April 2, 1783.
*By 1800 Thomas had moved his family to Kentucky, settling first in Green County and later in Knox County in the southwest part of the state. He is listed in the second census of Kentucky, which was taken in 1800.
*In 1820 or 1821, Thomas and Ruth followed their son Philip to Knox County, Kentucky, but this proved unhealthy for Ruth, so the couple started back to Green County, their former home. Ruth Hash died in 1822 while enroute from Knox County to Green County.
*Deciding to relocate after Ruth's death, Thomas and son Philip and family journeyed to the Sangamon Valley in Illinois in 1822 where they were pioneer settlers, living there for about 10 years. After the Blackhawk War, they moved to Rock Creek, between Petersburg and Springfield, Illinois.
*In 1832 Thomas Hash moved for the last time, with his son Philip to what is now Lawrence County, Missouri. He was probably the oldest settler of Lawrence County, Missouri, for he was already 76 years old when he moved to Southwest Missouri. He settled on a farm northeast of where Mt. Vernon sits today and lived there for 16 years, until his death on December 25, 1848 at the age of 92 and was buried in what was known as the Robert B. Taylor family graveyard (now known as the Old Taylor Graveyard), northeast of Mount Vernon, on the present Orin Carl farm.
*During our nation's Bicentennial (1976), which was 128 years after his death, the Rhoda Fairchild Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, held a special ceremony to recognize his gravesite. This grave marking ceremony took place on February 22, 1976, and included a formal dedication of a bronze plaque commemorating his Revolutionary service.

Thomas Hash dedication by SAR - Feb. 22, 1976
From the Lawrence County (MO) Historical Society Bulletin, April 1976:

"Grave of Revolutionary War Soldier Dedicated by SAR
Eighteen direct descendants of Thomas Hash were on hand Sunday afternoon, February 22, for formal dedication of a bronze Plaque at the grave of their ancestor, who served as an Ensign in the Revolutionary War. One hundred seventeen persons attended the impressive ceremony, under the auspices of the Rhoda Fairchild Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution.
Mrs. Richard Campbell, Flag Chairman for the Chapter, led the pledge of allegiance to the flag. Invocation was given by State Senator Richard Webster. Dedication of the marker was led by Mrs. Oliver Garnes, State Historian, MSSDAR. A flag was placed at the grave by Girl Scout Troop No. 25 and the wreath was placed by Edward W. Wiggins, representing Post No. 9 of the American Legion.
Historical facts pertaining to Thomas Hash and his family were given by Eugene H. Carl of the Lawrence County 
Historical Society, followed by remarks from Mrs. J.R. Langford and Mrs. Edna Hash Green, direct descendants. State Representative Robert E. Young gave the benediction, which was followed by a three-gun volley salute by the ROTC of Carthage High School.
Direct descendants present for the occasion were: Mrs. Margorie F. Langford, Bandera, Texas; Miss Gladys Fisher and Mrs. Mary Willis, San Antonio, Texas; Mrs. Diane Causey and Miss Betty Fisher, Utopia, Texas; Leon Carter and David Carter, Mission, Kansas; Mrs. Carrie Carpenter, Gordonville, Texas; Mrs. Edna Hash Green, Redlands, California; Mrs. Virginia Stroud Frieze, Greenfield, Missouri; Jerry Stroud and Mendi Stroud, Pierce City, Missouri; Frank W.
