General Notes (Husband)


Last name has various spellings: Hazelett, Haslett, Hazlett, Haslett

Joseph's parents remain a mystery. Cenus information varies, some say he was born in Ohio, some VA. It is possible that he's related to the "Stokes, NC" branch of the Hazletts, some did migrate to IL. Also, on the 1860 IL census a woman named "Phebe Hazlett, age 78 is residing at Joseph's home. Her place of origin was N.C.

A marriage was recorded for Joseph Hazlet and Lucy Etherenton (Atherton) in Pike MO.
However, Lucinda and some children were born in Pike Co. IL the MO reference may be an error.

Joseph purchased a federal land patent in 1846 in Pike Co. IL for forty acres.

Joseph appears on veterans roster for Black Hawk War, served in same brigade as Abraham Lincoln, Capt.:
HAZLET, JOSEPH PVT J BALL SANGAMON CO IN WHITESIDE

By James Lewis, Ph.D.
In May of 1832 Sac and Fox Indians under the leadership of Black Hawk left the Iowa territory and returned to their homes across the Mississippi River in northern Illinois. These Native Americans had lost their Illinois lands in a disputed treaty signed in St. Louis in 1805. Their return to northern Illinois sparked widespread panic among white settlers, and Illinois Governor Reynolds quickly called up the militia, which included a young Abraham Lincoln.
Both the militia and regular army troops proved unable to locate the elusive Indians at first, but by July they had begun to pursue Black Hawk's band across northern Illinois and southwestern Wisconsin, engaging them in a major conflict at Wisconsin Heights before finally routing the Indians at Bad Axe on the Mississippi River.


Abraham Lincoln's Military Service
During the Black Hawk War, 1832-
An Introduction.

During the Black Hawk War, Abraham Lincoln of New Salem, Illinois served three enlistments. Each enrollment lasted for approximately 30 days.
His first enlistment was as elected captain of a company in the 4th Regiment of Mounted Volunteers, of Gen. Samuel Whiteside's Brigade. Lincoln enrolled on April 21, 1832, and mustered out with his company at Fort Johnson (Ottawa) on May 27, 1832. The company served at Beardstown, and reportedly Lincoln's company helped bury the dead of "Stillman's Run"- although this occurrence is still under investigation. Along with the muster-out of Lincoln's company was the general muster-out of what became known as the "First Army" of Illinois. While a new army was being raised and organized, Illinois enlisted and mustered in a 20-day interim regiment (the so-called "Second Army") and the only defense the State of Illinois had until the so-called "Third Army" could be brought into the field.
Lincoln re-enlisted on the same day he mustered out of his old company, and was mustered in on May 29 as a private in Captain Elijah Ises' Company, Twenty-Day Interim Regiment. He actively served with the company when General Henry Atkinson detached Captain Iles' command to ride north from Ottawa along the Kellogg Trail and reopen communications with Galena-- which had been out of touch with the rest of the world since the Felix St. Vrain Massacre. As part of this movement, Iles' company (including Lincoln) spent an overnight at Apple River Fort... about a week before Black Hawk's attack against that strongpoint later in June. Once this ride was completed, the service of Iles' company was essentially at an end. On June 16, Lincoln was mustered out.
Lincoln's third enlistment was as a private in Captain Jacob M. Early's "Spy Company." This unit mustered in approximately June 20, 1832, and served as part of General Atkinson's army as it moved north through present-day Beloit, Janesvilles, the Storr's Lake encampment (west of present-day Milton, Rock County, Wisconsin) and on to the "Trembling Lands" east of present-day Fort Atkinson, Jefferson County, Wisconsin. Atkinson's food supply dwindled, and his solution was to muster out most of his militia. Accordingly, Early's company (along with Lincoln) was mustered out and discharged on July 10, 1832 near present-day Coldspring, Jefferson County, Wisconsin. The story goes that Lincoln had his horse stolen, so he and companion George Harrison (not the Beatle) reportedly walked and canoed several hundred miles back to New Salem.
