Text from:
The Fern family of Rowan County, N.C., Nicholas, Ky, Indiana, Iowa. Compiled by Mary Margaret Kern Garrard. Limited Edition Printed 1968.

Page 42.

Edward Kern, the second son of Simeon and Rachel Kern, was apparently born in 1807 in Kentucky according to the 1850 census for Indiana. Edward Lived in Pleasant Run Township, Lawrence County, Indiana, in 1850 with his wife, Polly Ann Rice (born 1810 in Kentucky, and had farm land valued at $4,000.

Mrs. Mary Eithel Kern Worley of Bedford, Ind., is daughter of Edward's son Jasper. She gave us (1967) a list of Edward's children which does not entirely tally with the census. We have combined the two.

The children of Edward of Polly Ann Rice Kern were:
Brenyard, b.?
Sophia A., b. 1831, married Anderson Bodenhamer
David S., b. 1834, m.?
John A., b. 1839, m.?

8366 LKH Note:
The Abraham Hunt who died 9 Sept 1851 in Randolph County, Indiana is not this Abraham. The Abraham Hunt who died in Indiana was the son of Ralph and Rachel Hunt.

See note in Find a Grave. Also notes from Quaker meetings.
Information from Tucker's History of Randolph County, Indiana. Published 1882

Another contributor has made the following suggestions. At this time I will keep the spelling from the 1882 source on the memorial. Many people spelled names differently. I don't know which way he spelled it. The "error" could have been made by the person recording the church information.
This way, both options are available to the person researching this family.

"According to cemetery records, your Abram Hunt's name was actually Abraham.
He was born on 10/2/1784. Would you add to your memorial page? Thanks. Source: Cemetery records compiled by Jeannette Swoveland."

8374 LKH note:
The news of Rev. Jonathan Hedges and his wife Margaret McClung Hedges was covered in multiple newspapers across the nation, including Washington, DC, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and as far away as Honolulu, Hawaii; and undoubtedly many more. Along the way the story was sensationalized to report that Margaret died within ten minutes of hearing of her husband’s death. One version in The Sun of New York went so far as to report “His wife, age 92, ill by his side, said when she heard he was dead, “Well, I’ll go too.” She died within ten minutes.”

In any case, the fact that Rev. Jonathan Hedges was a well-known circuit preacher in West Virginia and the story of the aged husband and wife dying within a few hours of each other made for a touching human interest story.
 
Hedges, Jonathan Kiher (I662)
 
8375 LKH note:
The photo of Opal McCane's headstone on Find a Grave shows death year as 1933 and an news article transcribed there proports to be from December 1933.

8377 LKH note:
There are two entries for William Hedges (1765-1848) on Find a Grave.

I have entered the Find a Grave information for his burial at Tarlton Cemetery in Pickaway County, Ohio because it is better documented. It matches the documentation in Joanne Eustice's book, matches information on the cemetery card shared on that Find a Grave entry, and is also linked to his wife and children.

The other Find a Grave entry gives his burial as Augustus Cemetery, Clearcreek Township, Fairfield County, Ohio; and notes that he is the husband of Catherine Yantis.

8381 LKH note:
There is conflicting information about Oliver Fitt and who he married. It is possible that there are two Oliver Fitts.
Oliver Fitt, born c. 1864 in Canada, son of Thomas Fitt (b. England) and Elizabeth Fitt (b. Canada), appears in his parent’s household in the 1880 census in Springwells, Wayne County, Michigan.

So far, I have been unable to find any Oliver Fitt anywhere in the 1900 or the 1910 census.
Sophia Fitt appears in an 1886 city directory for Bay City, Michigan as a dressmaker. Oliver does not appear in that directory.

8385 LKH note:
There is no definitive information about Abraham Hunt other than family researchers agreeing of his birth date. Some point to a Revolutionary War veteran named Abraham Hunt who applied for a pension in 1833 whose birth year would have been 1762 but that would have made him only 13 years old when the conflict began. In 1784 John and Mary (Overall) Hunt name their youngest child Abraham which make is likely that their eldest son with that same name had died before 1784.
