338/338
John J. Hitt 25 M Al $-- Farmer
Laura J. " 17 F SC
Virginia " 1 F La </pre>

He is not in the Slave Schedule. His sister Mary and her husband Jessy W. Thorn live at 339/339.

In 1860 their children are living with Asa Hawthorn.

In 1870 Benj. A. Hitt (19) and Jno. J. Hitt (17) are living in Franklin Par., Louisiana in the household of John C. Humble (35, farmer) and his wife Virginia (21). They have 3 children: Laura Humble (14), Gertrude Humble (2), and Lewis E. Humble (5/12). It seems likely that John C. Humble was a widower who married Virginia Hitt and that her two younger brothers are living with them. Laura is John C.'s child by his first wife, and he and Virginia have had 2 children.
