History of Northeast Indiana: FRANK HUGHES, a former clerk of the Circuit Court of Steuben County and now a member of the Indiana State Tax Board, in the inheritance tax department, has had a very busy and useful career. In early life he was a successful teacher, but for the past twenty years has given his time chiefly to farming in Salem Township, where he still lives. Mr. Hughes was born in that township September 3, 1866, a son of John and Martha (Meek) Hughes. His parents were both born in Ohio. His grandfather, David Hughes, was a pioneer settler in Salem Township, and kept a store at Dutch Mills Corners. He also served as justice of the peace at Flint for a number of years, and died there. His children included: Lafayette; James, who died as a Union soldier; Eliza; Mary, widow of Luther Hill; Alice; and Nancy. John Hughes grew up and received his education in the public schools of Steuben County, and for a number of years was employed in a saw mill at Dutch Mills Corners. He spent nearly all his life in that township and died in 1893, at the age of fifty-five. He was a republican in politics and a member of the Reformed Lutheran Church. His widow, who died in October, 1918, at the age of seventy-two, was the mother of twelve children, named Alonzo, Frank, Lester, Lewis, Emma, Sumner, Josephine, Porter, Rachel, Earl and Burl, twins, and James, who died at the age of twelve years. Frank Hughes in addition to the advantages afforded by the local district schools attended the American Normal School at Logansport, Indiana, also the Tri-State Normal College at Angola and the State Normal School at Terre Haute. He was only a boy when he taught his first term of school at Helmer, and was employed there for a second term. After that he followed teaching twenty years and for nine years was connected with the schools of Salem Township. The summer seasons he was engaged in farming and about 1897 he bought a farm in Salem Township of seventy acres. Later he bought another ten acres and then forty acres, giving him his present well proportioned farm of 120 acres, improved with two sets of buildings. In 1911 Mr. Hughes left his farm and went to Angola to perform his duties as clerk of the Circuit-Court. He was elected to that office in 1910, and held it four years. He then remained in the office as deputy for two and a half years. Since then his public duties have been as a member of the state tax board. He is a republican and a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows at Salem Center, while he and his wife are active members of the Presbyterian Church of Salem Township. March 27, 1901, Mr. Hughes married Miss Leona E. Parsell. She was born in Jackson Township September 8, 1879, a daughter of Austin M. and Mary Adaline (Weicht) Parsell. Her mother is a sister of Eugene F. Weicht, of Steuben County. Austin Parsell and wife live in Jackson Township. Mr. and Mrs. Hughes have one daughter, Martha Adaline, born March 23, 1905. She graduated from the eighth grade of the common schools in 1919. |
