Biography

General

For the only picture we have so far of Mildred, I'd estimate it was taken about the late 1920's or early 1930's. (Based on Ruth and her son Burt's apparent ages). Mildred would have been in her late 60's.

Mildred was at home through the 1876 Missouri Census. See photos and her parent's profiles for additional information. Based on this information, I believe that the birth place on her death certificate is wrong and will use what appears to be the more appropriate location.

Note that JR's family and Mildred's family are enumerated on the same page of the 1876 census and see the photo of the 1877 plat map of Union Township in Cass County. JR's family is not noted but the home Mildred's family is in is highlighted. Between their marriage in Sept. 1878 and the birth of their first child in Aug. 1879, JR and Mildred move to Kansas.

1876 Missouri Census

Mildred's family is listed in the home of Geo A Grove. Listed just below is the household of Jacob Hackler-33 with Mildred's future husband J.R. Hackler-25 in it.

1876-1910

See J.R.'s profile for additional information.

1910 Census

See photo. After her husband, J.R., and her daughter, Sadye, have passed away, Mildred is the head of household and has the family living on 'C' Street next door to J.R.'s brothers, Noah Hackler-39 and Elbert Hackler-34.

Ethel is married and with her husband, Bert, in Kansas City and Edna has been married and is now a Baker, but is living back with Mildred.

1920 Census

See photo. Mildred, Gertrude and Cora have moved about 65 miles from the Tampa area to the larger town of Manhattan and are living at 1006 Kearney Street. Looks like Mildred owns this home. Neither Mildred nor Gertrude appear to be working but Cora is doing clerical work at a bank.

Possible research follow up---1910/1920 census list Mildred's birthplace as Missouri, Father's as Missouri and Mother's as Kentucky.(was Missouri in 1900 Census)

1930 Census

As of 1-2-14, I have been unable to locate Mildred or Gertrude on any 1930 census. The house they lived in in 1920 is occupied by another family and I did not see any Hacklers in Ward 3 (also looked at Ward's 1 & 2) of the 1930 Manhattan Census.

Update 7-31-16: Many of the children are appearing in California. Its likely that Mildred went with them.

This makes the death record below a distinct possibility. The image is of just an index--wish I could see the actual DC and find some clue to her parent's names!

Name Mildred P Hackler
Event Type Death
Event Date 16 Aug 1938
Event Place , Los Angeles, California, United States
Gender Female
Age 77
Birth Year (Estimated) 1861
Certificate Number 48473[6]

Update 12-30-2019: Death Certificate available and proves that the above was correct. See photo. Birth date and location from here. Mildred's death was reported by her daughter, Edna Hackler-28 Baker. It appears that Mildred was living with Edna's family at the time of her death. She was cremated so a FaGR is unlikely. Very little information on her parents other than her father was Holloway and he was born in Missouri.

Name: Mildred Preston Hacker
Event Date: 16 Aug 1938
Event Place: Los Angeles, California, United States
Age: 77
Father's Name: Holloway
Spouse's Name: John Rueban Hackler[7]

Sources

  • Old Notes: I've spelled Mildred's maiden name exactly as it shows on Myrtle's death certificate. I have searched for further information under that and a combination of alternate spellings and come up with nothing so far.

According to https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/V28N-CBS on their marriage record the name is transcribed as HOLLOWAY. Unfortunately, no names of parents are shown.

A semi-connected family tree I've viewed has J.R.'s wife as Mildred W. Preston but I can't find anything there either. I trust the death certificate more than the on-line family tree, but, perhaps 'Preston' is from another marriage?

Update 1-2-14--I'm thinking less and less on a possible remarriage--See 1910/1920 Census etc... 58 years old and still 'Hackler'...can't imagine she remarries beyond this point and must conclude the 'Preston' is a complete error.

Mildred does not appear to be buried in the Hackler Cemetery in Tampa Kansas.

A possible range for date of death would be the 1930's to early 1940's?

Update 7-30-2016: With more records found I am switching Mildred's maiden name to HOLLOWAY and adding her middle name as Preston. See Mildred & JR's marriage + Cora Belle & Ethel Mildred's marriage records etc...
