GILBERT HAGERMAN was born in Spencer County, Ky., seven miles above
Taylorsville, March 28, 1837.  His parents were George and Luvina
(Zimmerman) Hagerman, natives of Nelson County, Ky., where they were
married.  They were members of the Baptist church.  Gilbert, subject of
this sketch, was the only child, and when he was but nine years old his
father died.  He remained on the farm with his mother one year when his
mother moved to Decatur County, Ind., to educate him.  He remained here
attending school, clerking in a store, and learning the carpenter's
trade until his mother's death, Oct. 22, 1854.  He then spent one winter
in Spencer County, Ky., and in March, 1855, returned to Daviess County,
Ky., and was overseer on the farm of Major Benj. Duncan and Ed Berry on
season; then worked for Ed Worthington one winter and the spring of
1856.  June 24, 1856, he married Emily Worthington.  She was born in
Daviess County, Ky., and was a daughter of Edward S. and Alsinda
(Crabtree) Worthington, natives of Daviess County, Ky.  After his
marriage Mr. Hagerman settled on a farm in Lower Town Precinct.  He and
wife had five children--Alice A., born Jan. 23, 1858; George E., born
Feb. 18, 1862, died Oct. 10, 1874; Charles T., born Dec. 24, 1864; Frank
G., born March 11, 1867, died Aug. 16, 1869; William E., born June 9,
1869.  The mother died June 10, 1870.  She was a member of the Pleasant
Grove Baptist church.  Mr. Hagerman married Sarah P. Davis, June 29,
1871.  She was born in Daviess County, Ky., Masonville Precinct, July
15, 1851, and was a daughter of Virgil and Ruhema F. (Howard) Davis,
natives of Shelby County, Ky., and Daviess County, respectively.  Her
mother was a relative of Daniel Boone.  In 1869 Mr. Hagerman was
appointed Deputy Sheriff and Tax Collector, and held that position until
the spring of 1872, when he moved with his family to Burlington, Coffee
Co., Kan., and worked at his trade of carpenter three years.  He then
returned to his farm near Owensboro; remained here two seasons, then
rented land in Upper Town until Dec. 13, 1881, when he purchased his
present farm in Masonville Precinct.  Mr. and Mrs. Hagerman are both
members of the Baptist church and have had three children--Sarah G.,
born July 12, 1873, died Aug. 12, 1876; Captolia I. A., born March 29,
1876; Helen V., born Sept. 21, 1879.  Mr. Hagerman owns a fine farm of
ninety-eight acres, thirty-eight acres under cultivation, and well
stocked.  Mr. Hagerman is a member of Brothers' Lodge, No. 132, I. O. O.
