Married first to Mary Knight, a first cousin to Eunice Knight. Of German
descent, also spelled Hoffstot, Houffstodt, and Hoffstott. Listed on the 1860
and 1870 census of Dallas Co., Van Meter, Iowa. William was 30 years old in
the 1860 census, born in Penn.
William stayed in Iowa and died there. His son, Owen Alfred, by first
marriage, migrated to Crane, Mont. He was previously in North Platte, Neb.
Checking the 1790 census of Penn. and of New York, I found no reference to
this family name whatsoever. I also checked references in Indiana but also
found no reference in any form for 1807 to 1820.
