History of Wells County, Indiana, Biographical Sketches. John J. Huffman, a son of Henry and Catherine (Baker) Huffman, was born in Jackson Township, Wells County, Indiana, on the old Huffman homestead, the date of his birth being March 25, 1847. He grew to manhood in his native township, and his father being a farmer, was also reared to agricultural pursuits, which he has followed through life. He was united in marriage November 28, 1868, to Miss Caroline Payne, who was born in Salamonie Township, Huntington County, a daughter of William and Charity (Swain) Payne, her mother being a daughter of John and Elizabeth Swain. Mrs. Huffman's parents were married in North Carolina, and were among the early settlers of Huntington County, Indiana, coming to this state by team. They lived in Huntington County until their death, the mother dying April 10, 1861, and the father January 19, 1864. They were the parents of seven children - John Wilson, born January 22, 1841, died August 11, 1855; Isaac Baker, born November 26, 1842, resides in east Warren; Elizabeth Catherine, born January 5, 1845, died November 7, 1864; Mahala Jane, born August 20, 1848, died October 3, 1874; Sarah Caroline, born November 2, 1850, wife of our subject; David Franklin, born January 10, 1853, lives in Salamonie Township, and William Low, born June 30, 1854, died September 4, 1855. Mr and Mrs. Huffman are the parents of three children - Charles Melville, born September 2, 1869; Isaac Franklin, born January 28, 1871, and Austin Ralph, born December 17, 1873. Shortly after his marriage, John J. Huffman, the subject of this sketch, removed to Huntington County, where he lived on rented land in Salamonie Township from the spring to the fall of the same year. He then rented land in another part of the same township, on which he resided three years, when he returned to Wells County, and after living three months in Chester Township he came to Jackson Township, where he made his home for three years. He then returned to Salamonie Township, Huntington County, where he bought eighty acres, on which he has since made his home. Since then he has added twenty acres to his original purchase, his farm now containing 100 acres of choice land. In the spring of 1885 he erected a handsome two-story residence, 30 x 42 feet in size, and in the spring of 1887 he built his present fine commodious barn. He is a practical farmer, as his surroundings plainly indicate, and by his quiet unassuming manners and honorable dealing he has gained the confidence and esteem of the entire community. Mr. and Mrs. Huffman are members of the Pleasant Hill Christian Church. Politically he is a democrat.
