1. History of Gentry and Worth County, Missouri
   Green Township Page 560, Union Township Page 583-4.
   Thomas Hagans from Platte County, Missouri, settled also on the West Fork of the Grand River. He was the father of John M. Hagans, of Union Township, and originally from Clark County Kentucky. He died before the war.
   John M. Hagans, familiarly called "Uncle Mace", was among the early pioneers of Union Township. He was born in Clark County, Kentucky, November 24, 1822. He came to Clay County, Missouri, in 1829, where he remained until the fall of 1843, when he emigrated to Platte County, Missouri. Not being entirely satisfied with Clay and Platte Counties, he again pulled up stakes, and sought a better and more healthful country, and in the fall of 1848, he came to Worth County and located in Union Township, four miles west of Grant City, where he now resides. He, in common with his neighbors, some of whom had preceded him a few years, suffered many of the hardships and the many inconveniences of that day. In the summer of 1849, Mr. Hagans carried on his back at one load three pecks of meal, ten pounds of coffee, ten yards of domestic, and eight yards of calico, a distance of sixty miles. These supplies were obtained at Whiteville, Andrew County, Missouri. He walked this distance in about fifteen hours.
   Willis Ray was a native of Clark County, Kentucky, and was an uncle of Mr. Hagans, above named, and settled in Worth County, in 1847, on the West Fork of Grand River, in the western part of the township. He died about thirty years ago. His sons, William and Willis B. Ray, now live in Union Township. Willis B. resides on the old homestead settled by his father.
