ISAAC H.
HAGUE, M. D., son of Isaac and Nancy (Doughterty) Hague,
was born in Holmes County, Ohio, Nov. 9, 1840. His paternal
grandparents came from Holland, and located in Fayette County,
Penn.,, removing to Holmes County in 1828, where the grandfather was
an agriculturist. Isaac Hague, father of the Doctor,
was born in Fayette County, Penn., where he married Nancy
Dougherty, who was also born in Pennsylvania, and where their
children - Ruth, Jane, William and Sarah - were born;
and after their settlement in Ohio Aaron, Elizabeth, Hannah
and Isaac H. were born. Ruth and Jane are
both residents of Holmes County, and married, the former to John
Phillips, the latter to Steven R. Williams; William's
residence is also there; Sarah married William McConkey,
and their home is in Missouri; Elizabeth married James
Miller, and their residence was in Porter County, Ind., where
she died; Hannah married Josiah Moreland, also
of Porter County, Ind., where she also died.
Isaac H. received his elementary education in
his native county, and his classical education at Hiram College,
Portage County, Ohio. He studied medicine with Dr. Joel
Pomerene, of Millersburgh, Ohio, and attended a course of
lectures in Cleveland, at Wooster University, fro which he graduated
in 1868, and in 1876 he took a special course at Bellevue Hospital
Medical College, New York. During the war, in 1862, the Doctor
enlisted in Company G, One Hundred and Second Ohio Volunteer
Infantry, returning home at its close, in 1865. In 1864,
during the term of his enlistment, he married Rebecca,
daughter of James Williams of Holmes County, Ohio, and upon
his return from the army they located for a time in Millersburgh;
then he began the practice of medicine in Nashville, removing to
Shreve in 1877, where he has since been successfully engaged in the
practice of his profession. To Dr. and Mrs. Haue five
children have been born, viz: Ellis B.; Jennie (now Mrs.
I. C. Charles of Lucas, Richland Co., Ohio); Virga L.;
Estella D., and James Harrison Garfield, named after
ex-President Garfield, who was president of Hiram College
during the Doctor's attendance there.
The Doctor and his wife are members of the Disciples
Church; in politics he is a Republican. It is almost
superfluous to add that Dr. Hague as a professional man and
as a citizen deservedly holds a high position in the estimation of
the community where he resides, that he enjoys an increasing and
remunerative practice.
