Regardless <strong>of</strong> Johannes Hackler’s marriage history, it can be said that he had a son David<br />
Hackler. David Hackler continued this family line.<br />
1850 Census<br />
From this point forward, this report will be based on US census data.<br />
David Hackler was born in Virginia in 1807 or 1809. He was first identified in <strong>the</strong> 1850 census<br />
as a farmer living in Atchison County, Missouri. He was 41 years old in 1850. He was married to<br />
Mathilda Golden. Here is his family in 1850:<br />
1850<br />

The names shown in <strong>the</strong> table are those found in <strong>the</strong> census <strong>and</strong> are deemed accurate. The names<br />
in paren<strong>the</strong>ses come from o<strong>the</strong>r Hackler family trees on www.ancestry.com.<br />
Some dates for his family do not make sense. For example, David <strong>and</strong> Mathilda’s first born child<br />
per <strong>the</strong> 1850 census was John, born when she was 14 in 1834. While it was not uncommon for<br />
women to marry young in this time frame, this is not likely because a marriage date <strong>of</strong> 24 August<br />
1843 was found in <strong>the</strong> Missouri Marriage Records 1805-2002 database for David <strong>and</strong> Mathilda.<br />
A more likely scenario is that David was married twice, first (est 1833) to an unknown person,<br />
<strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> second in 1843 to Mathilda. This is supported by at least one public family tree.<br />
