Huger family.
Biographical notes:
South Carolina family. Francis Kinloch Huger (1773-1855) was a Charleston and Stateburg physician, U.S. Army officer, and South Carolina state legislator. In 1794 Huger was studying medicine in Vienna, Austria, where he met Dr. Erick Bollmann. Huger and Bollmann made an unsuccessful attempt to rescue the Marquis de Lafayette, a prisoner of the fortress of Olmutz (now Olomouc, Czech Republic). Both Huger and Bollmann were afterwards captured and confined at Olmutz until their release in 1795. Francis Kinloch Huger married Marriott Lucas Pinckney, daughter of Thomas Pinckney (1750-1828), in 1802. Their daughter Mary Esther Huger (1820-1898) married Dr. Joseph Alston Huger (1815-1895) in 1840.
