Hiram Hinkston Howe Hambright was born in East Tennessee on August 1, 1836.  He 
married Sallie Lutecia Kerr in 1866 and moved first to Atlanta, Georgia, and 
then to Texas in 1878.  They had 7 children.  He was a farmer for several years 
until his oldest son, Edgar Eugene Hambright died suddenly of spotted fever in 
March of 1890.  He and his wife, Sallie, could no longer live on the farm and 
so moved to Rhome where they owned The Cottage Hotel and a mercantile 
business.  H.H.H.H. was also a notary public and the Justice of the Peace.  In 
early 1818, H.H.H.H. was hit by one of the first automobiles of Rhome, Texas, 
while crossing the street and never fully recovered.  Sallie died one month 
later.
