HACKNEY OBITUARIES, Henry County, Missouri ==================================================================== HACKNEY, George H. 1842 - 1906 G. H. Hackney Dead. Our Member of the Legislature Passes Away. Judge George H. Hackney, our member of the Legislature, died last Tuesday night at 8 o'clock at his home in Urich. Deceased had been in failing health for a year past. His debility waas of a general character, but he had frequent severe attacks of acute throat trouble. Judge Hackney was about 64 years of age and a man of strong and vigorous personality. He had been honored by his fellow citizens having served as County Judge and more recently as member of the Legislature; and he proved himself at all times faithful to the trust reposed in him. He was a Democrat whose allegiance never swerved and who was fitted to advise and to lead; and whose words therefore carried great weight in the councils of his party. Deceased leaves four children living - Dr. Geo. V. Hackney, of Marcial, New Mexico, who as well as the others was by his father's beside; Thomas B. Hackney; B. B. Hackney and Miss Grace Hackney, that latter three living in or near Urich. ==================================================================== USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free information on the Internet, data may be used by non-commercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
