THIS CONNECTION IS UNCERTAIN. We know that Hugh W. Hitch was born in Tennessee in 1825. From this, we can look at the Hitch families in Tennessee in 1830 with males about age 5 and get Archibald, Elias, Eleven, Lloyd and Wise Hitch. From the process of elimination, evidence points to Wise Hitch as the father of Hugh W. "W." for the middle initial may actually be an abbreviation for Wise.
He is listed as age 68 years, 9 months, 11 days when he died on Dec 30 1891. Birthdate is calculated from this.
Hugh married Martha Jane Kimbrough, daughter of John A. Kimbrough and Nancy Koho, on 07 Feb 1854 in Edgar Co., IL. (Martha Jane Kimbrough was born on 11 Nov 1838 in IL, died on 11 May 1873 in Edgar Co., IL and was buried about 14 May 1873 in New Providence Cemetery, Edgar Co., IL.)
