THOMAS T. HITE, born in Shelby County, Ky., Dec. 13, 1834, was a son of
William and Courtney T. (Figg) Hite.  They had a family of ten children,
seven sons and three daughters, Thomas T. being the third son and fifth
child.  He was but ten years old when his father died.  In 1856 the
family came to Daviess County and settled on a farm in Masonville
Precinct.  Thomas remained here a year, then worked for Newtigan
Harrison a year; then he and his brother, John J., farmed together until
his marriage to Nancy E. Cook, Dec. 22, 1859.  She was born in Cass
County, Mo., Dec. 8, 1840, and was a daughter of Washington and Rebecca
(Harrison) Cook.  After his marriage, Mr. Hite settled on his farm in
Masonville Precinct.  He soon after sold it and leased one in Upper Town
Precinct for six or seven months; then returned to Masonville and
remained four or five months; then rented a farm in Murray Precinct six
years; then purchased his present farm in Masonville Precinct, where he
and family still reside, and where he owns a fine farm of 140 acres,
seventy-five acres under cultivation.  Mr. and Mrs. Hite have had a
family of five children--Austin K., born Jan. 16, 1861; James W., born
July 9, 1862; Joseph B., born Nov. 19, 1864; Anna E., born April 31,
1867; William C., born Feb. 2, 1878.  Mr. and Mrs. Hite are members of
the Methodist Episcopal church, Masonville.  In politics he is rather
independent and votes rather for men than measures.
