Biography
Jeremiah S. Hogue Texas Pottery Stoneware1847-1926 Titus County, Texas In Business 1865-1884
East Texas Pottery / Stoneware, Titus County, TX.
In 1865 Jeremiah S. Hogue established a pottery in Titus County at Gray Rock and then moved it to Winfield in 1884. He employed 15-20 people mining clay, making pottery and tiles for wells. Born in Arkansas in 1847, Mr. Hogue's sister Sarah lived in Titus Country. When Jeremiah was discharged from the confederate army at Marshall, Texas. In 1874 Jeremiah married Miss Belle Hanks. Jermiah opened the fire clay, out of which immense quantities of brick were made and out of which crocks, jars and jugs, whose capacity would aggregate a hug volume of gallons.
He started with a one-wheel factory. He himself learned the trade under various experienced potters whom he employed at the works, and for several years he sold product to local consumers. His growth to and eight-wheel shop was slow and gradual, being reached after 25 years of steady business. In 1900 he sold the plant, which was incorporated as the Windfield pottery company, with capital of $30,000.
