Notes about Peter D. Hawver


History of McHenry County, Illinois
p. 479

PETER D. HAWVER has been a resident of Chemung Township, McHenry County, since May, 1840. He was born in Canajoharie, Montgomery Co., N. Y., March 28, 1814, a son of John J. and Catherine (DOBBS) Hawver. His father was a poor man, and Peter, being the oldest son, was obliged to assist in the support of the family. When sixteen years of age he was bound to a carpenter for five years, but because of the man's cruelty he left him after a year and a half and worked for different farmers, remaining with one man six years. In 1840 he came West, and arrived in Chicago, May 24. From there came direct to McHenry County and bought eighty acres of the farm where he now lives. He added to his original purchase from time to time, till he owned 540 acres of the finest land in the State. He has reserved the old homestead of 132 acres, and has divided the rest among his children. In his early life he was economical and saved his earnings, and the result has been prosperity. He has been an enterprising citizen and has been influential in both business and social circles. He was married Feb. 12, 1835, to Christina HARDENDORF, a native of Canajoharie, N.Y., born Feb. 13, 1815, a daughter of Jacob and Hannah (CLOW) Hardendorf, natives of New York, of Holland descent. To them have been born ten children, eight of whom are living - Charles T., born Sept. 4, 1836, married Henrietta Staley, March 4, 1857; Dewey F., born Feb. 6, 1839, is in San Francisco, Cal.; Laura, born July 17, 1841, probably the first while girl born in Chemung Township, is the wife of Ezra Avery, of Eau Claire County, Wis., married Jan. 31, 1859; Mary E., born June 25, 1846, was married Nov. 16, 1871, to Henry Huntley, of Sharon, Wis.; Lydia, born Aug. 2, 1850, was married Sept. 13, 1868, to James H. Staley; Oren P., born June 6, 1853, was married Dec. 23, 1875, to Ella Bell, and resides in Walworth County, Wis.; Sumner, born Sept. 22, 1856, was married Jan. 28, 1878, to Edith Mills; Louisa C., born Oct. 1, 1860, was married Dec. 4, 1879, to Darwin Gillis, Walworth County, Wis. Five of the children are living within two miles and a half of the old homestead. Mr. and Mrs. Hawver are members of the Methodist Episcopal church. Their ancestors were among the early settlers of this country and were heroes of the war of the Revolution.
