He chose a fine sightly spot for his home, where his grandson, Don Carlos Hoffman, now lives, and built the present residence during the Civil war. He died there in old age, soon after the war, and his wife, whose maiden name was Catherine Ghost, survived him several years. According to his plans the place passed to his son Philip Ghost Hoffman, father of Don Carlos. John and Catherine (Ghost) Hoffman had the following family: Walter, who died in Irwin township, where his sons William John and Barkey now live (his son Lowrie died at Ellwood City in the spring of 1918) ; Daniel, who also died in Irwin township, his surviving sons being Craft, John.
