The father was a man of high character and a member of the Presbyterian church. He belonged to the Masonic lodge, a charter member of the lodge at Belton. The mother was a high type of American womanhood. For a number of years before her death she was an invalid, but she bore her sufferings with fortitude. She was a member of the Presbyterian church for forty-three years. Mrs. Hogard was born in Cass County and is a granddaughter of Chesney Young, one of the very early settlers of this county. Mrs. Hogard was educated in Belton and has spent practically all her life in this vicinity. Mr. and Mrs. Hogard are well known in Cass County and have many friends.
