George came to the Abbeville district of South Carolina with his parents in 1766. According to probate records, George Hearst married an unknown Pressly prior to 1807 (the first name of Jane is unproven at this point). The George of this marriage may have been the son of Major John Hearst below. In circa 1808, George and his family left South Carolina for Illinois. George's son Joseph stated in the 1850 census that he was born in Illinois. After a few years, the George once again moved, this time to Missouri were he settled in the Meramec valley near his brother Thomas who had preceded him there. It appears that he married again around 1820. By the time of his death, George had become one of the wealthiest man in Merimec township. He kept 19 of the 41 slaves to be found in the township.
George Hearst died intestate in 1822. His estate was administered by William Hearst and William Gibson. The following record was filed 17 July 1862 in the Recorder of Deeds, Franklin County, Missouri, page 622:
Know all men by these presents that we the heirs as follows of the Estate of George Hearst Deceased: Elias Gibson & Easther Gibson Widow of said Hearst, William Gibson, Joseph Hearst, Caleb Bowls, & Elias Gibson as guardian for Eveline Hearst for and in consideration of thirty three dollars to each of us paid in hand by William Hearst have granted bargained, sold, and released unto the said William Hearst ... set our hands and seals this eighth day of November One thousand Eight-hundred and twenty-Eight. [punctuation added]
Caleb Bowles was the husband of Mary Hearst. William Gibson is almost certainly the husband of another daughter.
The attribution of Martha as a daughter to George can be found in Greenwood County Sketches, by Margaret Watson, Attic Press, Greenwood, SC., P 254:
GEORGE HEARST was the son of the pioneer John. Name of wife not known. Four Children: William G. Hearst. A son was George Hearst who lived in California and was the father of Wm Randolph Hearst ... Joseph Hearst m. first, Ann Frazier,2. (?) [Hannah] Armstead; Polly [Mary] Hearst married Caleb Bowles; daughter, name not known[Martha], married cousin, Lewis Hearst. 5 Children, all dsp.
Martha may have remarried to William Gibson. In that case, unknown and Martha are one in the same. William Hearst, Polly Hearst, Easter Hearst, William Gibson, and Elias Gibson's names appear in the bill of sale for George Hearst's personal estate.
