HUEY ....my wife Elizabeth ....my daughter Bertha ....my brothers and sisters ....Saml. C. HUEY (my brother) ....my sister Lucy ALEXANDER....." ------------- Fairfield Daily Ledger Monday October 2, 1939 (Centennial Edition) Section I, Pg. 8, Col. 8 DR. JOHN T. HUEY A partner of Dr. J. M. Shaffer, Dr. John T. Huey was among the first doctors to have practiced in Jefferson county. He practiced in Fairfield in 1848 or earlier. Little can be learned of his life, Judge Leggett said: "He was the most cultured gentleman of my acquaintance." When Dr. J. M. Shaffer came to Fairfield in 1852, he formed a partnership with his brother-in-law, Dr. Huey. Dr. Huey built the most pretentious house in Fairfield, which was razed in 1933. He had everything the best - fine horses, and servants. He had a Philadelphia education and wealth, and was the most patrician dotor who has lived in Jefferson county. He was very firm and called every woman "Mada." Dr. Huey did no manual labor, but one day he took the house scissors and cut all the blossoms from the potato plants grown by Christian Shafer (sic), his neighbor. Dr. Huey probably meant to test whether this would lessen or increase the number of potatoes. It has not been recorded whether this had any effect. ------------ "Fairfield Ledger", Jan. 6, 1933, Pg. 4 HOMES OF FAIRFIELD. By Oscar H. Herring. 114 W. Broadway, Harry E. SMITH. Built in 1852 by John T. HUEY. He left the property to Mrs. HUEY and a daughter. The widow, a sister of the prominent SHAFFERs, married S. W. COFFIN and the daughter married W. D. RUMER, who died only a year or so ago, having lived at Alliance, Nebr., since leaving here.....
