BUSKIRK, HULET posted by Susan Hulet on Friday, June 8, 2001: I am seeking information on Ira Hulet born Jan 12, 1790. Census records show Ira as being in Portage Ohio in 1830-1835. I believe he married Martha Dyson Lane near Youngstown, Portage County. His son was William Wallace Hulet born Sept 8, 1844. William married Mary C Buskirk. Census records show Mary as being from Canada and OH so she must have gotten married in OH or naturalized there. They ended up in MO. Other than census records I have been unable to find them in Portage.
