Narrative

Note: Researching Daniel Huffman

The youngest of the family, Daniel had only just turned four years old when his father died; in the next census record to follow, he was living with a neighboring family (surname indexed as "Stidl") in Dover Twp, Tuscarawas Cty, Ohio. By the time of the 1870 US Census, he had moved with his widowed mother to Berlin Twp, Bureau Cty, Illinois, near many of his Weible-descended relatives.

By 1880, he had married to Sara Alma Kyle, and was living in Osceola, Polk Twp, Nebraska with her aged parents, and by 1900 he and Alma had moved to Santa Paula, Ventura Cty, California, where they would remain for the rest of their days. After Alma's death in 1915, Daniel eventually moved in with the family of Mary (Hite) Caldwell, his niece and daughter of his sister Lydia Jane (Huffman) Hite, still in Santa Paula.

California voter registers place him there in the state by 6 Oct 1888, when he was registered to vote in Saticoy, Ventura Cty.

The text Christian Metzger: Founder of an American Family 1682-1942 notes two marriages for him, but gives no date for either. His second marriage is listed as to "Mrs. Margaret G. Joy of Santa Paula," no vital dates or maiden name given. I have not found marriage records for either Daniel and Alma, or Daniel and Margaret, and I have not found any residence placing Margaret in a household with Daniel. Whether he was widowed twice, divorced from his second wife, or never re-married is unknown to me at this time.

The text does not note any children for Daniel, and I have found no birth records naming him a father nor found any children living with him in any census record. The fact of his living with his niece toward the end of his life suggests to me that he had no children.
