William Harvey Hood, born in Chester County, August 21, 1840, was the son of John Hood (1812-1890) and Elizabeth White (1817-1876).
Harvey Hood served as a private in the Confederate Army, Company D, First South Carolina Cavalry, Commanded by Captain W. A. Walker, afterwards by Captain J. S. Wilson. On December 13, 1866, he was married to Eliza Jane Wylie, born July 19, 1847, a daughter of Samuel Avander Wylie (1818-1862) and Jane Caldwell (1824-1880) of Chester County.
Harvey and Eliza lived in the vicinity of Pleasant Grove Presbyterian Church where they and their parents worshipped. When he was elected Sheriff of Chester County for the term beginning January 1, 1885, Harvey moved his family into Chester. They lived at the Chester County Jail, which still stands at 128 Center Street and is currently used as attorneys' offices. At that time, the sheriff's family occupied the first 2 floors of the building. Access to the third floor where prisoners where kept was by an outside stairway.
On Feburary 12, 1890, John Hood, Harvey's father, was waylaid and killed on a Chester street, a case of mistaken identity. After the killer was captured, indignant citizens talked of lynching. Sheriff Hood stood firm in protecting his prisoner and appealed to Govenor J. P., Richardson to be allowed to send the prisoner to Columbia for protection. An editorial in the Charleston News and Courier referring to his handling of the case stated "He did not suffer his filial affections and his natural desire to mete out swift punishment to his father's assassin to swerve him from the discharge of his duty as an officer of the law. Sheriff Hood's example is deserving of highest praise, and is well worthy of imitation of all officers of peace. Public office is a public trust".
Harvey served three terms as sheriff, until 1897. The Hood family then lived at 109 Brawley Street. While on horseback on his farm near Chester, Harvey was killed by lightening on May 3, 1900. He is buried in Evergreen Cemetery.
Return to William Harvey Hood
W.H. Hood, Sheriff of Chester County, SCMr. William Harvey Hood is a descendant of one of the oldest pioneer families of Kershaw County, SC. He was born in Chester County, August 28, 1840. At an early day, William Hood, a native of Ireland, settled in Kershaw county, having removed from Chester County, Penn., where he had made his first home on coming to America. He was a planter and left a son named Andrew, who was born and reared in Kershaw county, and removed to Chester, where he passed a long and useful life as a planter. He had 14 children, all of whom reached maturity. The 3rd eldest son of these children was John Hood, father of our present subject. The latter was born in Kershaw county July 3, 1811. He married Elizabeth White, a daughter of Hugh White, a South Carolinian and a son of William White, a native of Ireland. He came to America some time prior to the Revolution, in which he served as a Colonial soldier, and the flint-lock musket he bore during those trying times is in the possession of Mr William A White. To John & Elizabeth were born 12 children. Four of their sons served in the Confederate army during the late civil strife. Andrew having been killed upon the battlefield in Virginia. Hugh was wounded at the battle of Corinth and died from his wounds. John was a planter, a man of excellent qualities and much ability. He met a sad death on the night of February 15, 1890 at the hands of a negro who mistook him for another person and shot him. Sheriff Hood was reared on his father's plantation and was given good scholastic training, although his education was interrupted by the outbreak of the rebellion at which time he had barely reached his majority. He enlisted in the Confederate army as a private in August 1861 in Walkers company of the First South Carolina cavalry and fought until the end. Returning to his fathers house, he remained there until his marriage to Miss Eliza Jane Wylie, daughter of Mr. Avender Wylie, December 13, 1866 when he embarked in business for himself as a planter. Samuel, John Edward, Elizabeth Jane, Adelia Moore and Sarah Henrietta are the offspring of this happy marriage. As a planter, Mr. Hood proved a success and he was engaged in that calling until 1884, when he was called to the sheriffs office and has since been retained in that capacity. He is a Master Mason, and himself and faimly are communicants of the Presbyterian Church.
