Descendents of Elihu and Jerutha Jane Hastings 1929

1929 Family Reunion

Elihu Hastings (1839-1913) was the son of Moses Hastings.  Jerutha Jane Cordry Hastings (1833-1898) was the daughter of Elijah Aaron Cordry and Mary "Polly" Collins.  As with most Hastings family trees there is some confusion on them.  Elihu had three wives, the last he married in 1900; Eliza Emily Workman who had previously been married to James Ellis, and Nancy Hastings.  So there is always the chance of step children by different wives entering the picture when you say the descendents of Elihu and Jerutha Jane.  They married in 1851.  She had at least 15 known.
Frank Hastings (1852-1852)
George W. Hastings (1854-1909)
William Edwatd Hastings (1855-1909)
Maria Katherine Hastings (1857-1929)
John W. Hastings (1858- )
Charles Allison Hastings (1858-1917)
Alice Hastings (1859-1862)
Elihu Thomas Hastings (1860-1936)
Mary "Doll" Jane Hastings (1864-1947)
George Darius Hastings (1866-1943)
James Roland Hastings (1868-1905)
Harvey Webster Hastings (1870-1944)
Quincy E Hastings (1871- 1953 )
Ella Sophronia Hastings (1873-1955)
Hermus Elton Hastings (1875-1917)

So with this many sons and daughters the reunion would be quite large. 


Elihu Hastings also owned the land where todays State Street Park is.
