• Notes

  Charles C. Hoffman, who, according to his obituary, was one of the most extensive landowners in Washington Co., died at the age of 53. He had been kicked in the side seven months before by a young colt, when he was unhitching a team from teh wagon and sustained two broken ribs. However, members of the family believe this had nothing to do with his death. In addition to farming, the family owned a general store in New Minden, Illinois. My husband and members of his family remember the peddling wagon which came to the Covington area one day each week and went from farm to farm selling their wares. Emma and Henry who drove the wagon came to the Reinhardt home for dinner on these days. The wagon was loaded with groceries, bolts of yard goods, thread, various staples, etc. from the store and at teh bottom of the wagon were chicken coops, since they also bought chickens from the farmers. The egg cases were on top. From "Hoffmans 16562 - 1972" Compiled by Bernice Reinhardt
