Description

Portrait of Eva (Sager) Hottel sitting in studio with her young son, John Edward Hottel, on her lap.

Eva (Sager) Hottel:

Eva was the daughter of Jess Luther and Lula (Borden) Sager, a farming family. In 1931, she married John Paul Hottel (1907-1974) in Strasburg. He was the son of J.W. and Annie M. (Coffman) Hottel. Over the ensuing years, the couple raised five children.

By 1950, the family lived in the Stonewall District of Shenandoah County. Eva’s oldest son, John Edward was no longer living with them. Her mother-in-law, Annie M. (Coffman) Hottel, was widowed and living with them.

John Edward Hottel:

John E. Hottel graduated from Woodstock High School in 1949 and went into the Army soon after. As a Sergeant, he served during the Korean War.

John married Priscilla Agnes (Wallace) (1935-2013) in New Hampshire, in 1954, while he was stationed at Ft. Bragg, N.C. She was a 19-year old telephone operator from Nashua. The couple honeymooned in New York, Washington D.C., and Virginia before heading back to Ft. Bragg.

Upon his discharge from the Army in 1955, Mr. Hottel became a police officer for the Nashua Police Department. He also worked in the sales division for McLaughlin-Mayflower Moving and Storage in Nashua for many years, often winning many awards for being the top salesman. He was a well-known and well-respected real estate broker in the city of Nashua.

John and his wife spent 51 years together and had two children: Pamela and Douglas Hottel.

At some point, they moved to Spring, Texas, where they spent their last years.

John was a son of John and Eva (Sager) Hottel.
