Hubbell Pioneers
If you are a member of the Hubbell family because your name is Hubbell (or its variations of Hubble, Hubbel, Hubel or Huble) or you have a Hubbell ancestor or married into the Hubbell family, perhaps you have wondered about your Hubbell ancestors or would like to know who the Hubbells were that lived in your area or lived where you grew up. The book Hubbell Pioneers has many answers to these questions.
Hubbell Pioneers, published by The Hubbell Family Historical Society, tells of early Hubbells or Hubbells of note in each of the states of the United States, the District of Columbia, and Canada and also relates interesting Hubbell stories.
The 432-page book has a chapter for each state and the chapters are arranged in the order the states joined the Union. There are 50 illustrations and separate indexes for people and for places. More than 30 authors contributed to the book.
One of the authors stated that Hubbell Pioneers "tells the history of the growth
of our country in specific Hubbell examples -- from Seth's pioneering in the torturing
conditions in Vermont, through Capt. William's fighting the Indians on the Ohio, the
effects of the Civil War in Mississippi, the homesteading rush in Oklahoma, gold rush
in California, the Santa Fe Trail in Kansas, mining in Michigan, the old Spanish West
in New Mexico and Arizona and on and on -- a vivid down-to-earth panorama of American
history."
