     § 1073. AUGUSTUS GEORGE HAZARD, 7 (Thomas, 6; Stephen, 5; 
     
     Thomas, 4.; Stephen, 3 , Robert, 2; Thomas, 1), was born In South Kingstown, 
     
     April 28, 1802, he died May 7, 1868. His father, Thomas S. Hazard, was a 
     
     sea—captain, the memory of whose bold and manly character is still treasured 
     
     on the south shore of Rhode Island; his mother, Silence Hazard, is remembered

     appeared in her youngest and last surviving of eight children. The family 
     
     removed in 1808 to Columbia, Connecticut, and the son remained there on the 
     
     farm until he was fifteen years old.

     mission house; became, by agency and proprietorship, connected with the line 
     
     of packets sailing between that city and Savannah, a large receiver of southern 
     
     produce, and the resident purchaser for his own and other commercial houses at 
     
     the South. Successfully engaged in this large and profitable business, he was over— 
     
    
   
   
    
     taken by the unprecedented financial crash of 1837. He passed through that
