Mrs.
Lucinda Harlan who was born near Vincennes, Indiana October 4, 1812. Her parents, David and Sarah Hogue, moved
into this county, near where the town of York now stands, in December 1814,
when their daughter was but a little over two years old, and she has resided
here ever since. Her father died in
1823. She was married to Justin Harlan,
now County Judge, the 4th of March, 1832. Her mother died in 1846.
Mrs. Harland is the mother of nine children, eight of whom are now
living, and a more respected and useful family than hers cannot be found. The boys are all regarded as our best men,
there being Howard, Cyrus, Edward, William, Justin and Wilson, all residents of
this place, while her daughters are Emily Payne the wife of Alex, and Mary the
wife of W. A. Wright.
