Since this message was originally posted, we have learned that John P. Hazard was
actually born John *Pock* and added the Hazard later. From various sources, official and
unoffical: JPH filed for land in 1884 in Box Butte Co., NE, married Jessie A. Cady at her
home in Hardin Co. IA in 1885 , came back to live on his land in NE. They had 3 children,
Mabel Olivia, Maude Isma, and Clarence Cady. JPH was the Alliance city civil engineer (co
seat), the Box Butte County Surveyor, and a U.S. Land Attorney. Jessie left JPH in August,
1898. (couldn't face another winter in a sod house?) He divorced her in 1901 and
married Mrs. Laura L. Ravert in 1914. He died in Gooding, ID.
