Life

Charles William Hearn was born on 6 February 1808, according to the FamilySearch tree, which places his birth in Troup County, Georgia, gives no source and does not name his parents.1 On 30 December 1827 Charles Hearn married Nancy Wheeler in Putnam County, Georgia; the tree records her death in 1852 and no children of the marriage.2 The federal census of 1850 lists Charles Hearn in Troup County.3 On 17 February 1853 he married Mary Satterwhite, the widowed Mary Jane McKinney, in Chambers County, Alabama.4 Their son Romalus Charles Hearn was born in 1854, according to the tree.5 The censuses of 1860 and 1870 list C. W. Hearn, with his wife Mary, in Troup County, Georgia.6 Mary Jane Hearn died in Heard County, Georgia, on 23 March 1900.7 That year the census recorded Charlie W. Hearn in the household (the people living together at one address, as the census-taker recorded them) of Thos. J. Hearn in Heard County.8 Inference Thomas J. Hearn was probably a son or other relative, but the tree does not list him among Charles's children.8 Charles William Hearn died in Heard County on 15 July 1900 and was buried in the Hearn Cemetery there.9 Two later death records also name a C. W. or Charles Hearn as a parent: the Texas record of Martha Jane Satterwhite in 1932, and the Georgia record of Charlie Lewis Hearn in 1927, which indexes the father's name as "Charles L. Vearn"; neither person is listed among his children in the tree.10
