1796 January 2 |
Birth
of Jesse Haston: The 1850
Federal Census indicates that Jesse (Hasten) was 54 years old at the
time of the census. The census record also says that he was born
in Tennessee. If the 1796 date for Jesse's birth is correct, he was
very probably born south of the Holston River, "opposite Knoxville," in Knox County, TN. Source: Unknown source for the January 2 birthday. ------------------------ Note: The death certificate for Jesse's daughter, Anna Eliza Dandridge, makes three interesting, but otherwise unsubstantiated, assertions regarding Jesse:

1815 December 10 or 12 |
Married
Elizabeth Gillentine:
One unknown source says that Elizabeth Gillentine was born on February 4, 1801.
However, her brother's (John Gillentine's) Bible says that she was born
on December 5, 1800. One unknown source says she was born in
McNairy County, TN. She married
Jesse in Van Buren County, TN at the age of 14 (almost 15). She bore
13 children and died February 2, 1847 in Howard County, MO. Source: December 10 date, unknown source; December 12 date, from page 7 of Howard H. Hasting, Sr.'s unpublished report on his Daniel Haston family research (written in 1954 & revised in 1980) ---- Note: There is no known historical documentation to prove that Jesse was the son of Daniel Haston. However:

1817 February 15 |
Birth of Jane Haston: This
daughter married Nathaniel Davis on January 3, 1837. Source: Howard County, MO Marriages ---- Note: The wife of early White County, TN pioneer Nicholas Gillentine was Jane Elizabeth Terry Gillentine or Elizabeth Jane Terry Gillentine. The fact that Jesse & Elizabeth Haston named their first child "Jane" would seem to indicate that truly she (Jesse's wife) was from the White County, TN Gillentine family that lived very close to Daniel Haston's family. |
1818 |
Moved to Missouri: The 1894 biographical sketch for
Jesse Haston, Jr. (son of the Jesse Haston of
this timeline) states that the elder Jesse Haston moved to Missouri from
east Tennessee in the year of 1818. Source: From History of Montana, published 1894, Joaquin Miller |

1820 | Missouri becomes a state: "By 1820 Missouri
had enough inhabitants--more than 70,000--to become a state. A
thirteen-county area of central Missouri [including Howard County] came
to be called Little Dixie but was more akin to Virginia than the Deep
South." Source: David Hackett Fischer and James C. Kelly, Bound Away: Virginia and the Westward Movement. (Charlottesville, VA: University of Virginia Press, 2000), 178. |
1820 December 18 |

Haston: This daughter was born in Howard County of Glasgow
County,
MO. She married Robert J. Venable on July 25, 1839 in Chariton
County, MO. She died on December 26, 1864. Source: Unknown ---- Note: The name of this daughter seems to indicate clearly that Jesse and Elizabeth were living in Missouri by 1820. Because Missouri was not a state until 1821, there is no1820 Federal Census record available for that area. Jesse Haston did not appear on the 1820 White County, TN Federal Census record. |
