[4genhassler.FTW]Egbert Floyd Hassler was born "over a den of rattlesnakes". Neighbors helped his parents smoke out and kill over 200 rattlers which were under the little log house in which Egbert was born. Egbert, along with his mother, listened to the cannon fire of the Civil War battle on Lookout Mountain. He taught nine schools in Overton, Fentress, Cumberland and Pickett Counties and taught Cordell Hull. He was postmaster at Armathwaite, TN. He was present at the historical hanging of the Braswell brothers in Cookeville in the late 1879. Egbert farmed, dug for ginseng and other herbs, traded some in for fur pelts, studied Indian life and lore and collected Indian artifacts most of his life. He walked, explored and dug with archaeologist and college professors. He drank the most potent coffee in Pickett County and smoked the strongest pipe, but he never inhaled. He enjoyed eating wild pawpaws, mulberries, cherry pie, angel food cake, oysters, and cornbread made yellow with too much baking soda. He had a nickname for everyone and everything. He collected postage stamps, coins and played the violin. His grandchildren enjoyed hearing him tell "Hant tales" as they sat around the fireplace during the winter time. Egbert spent most of his life in Pickett County. He was 98 years old before he too a dose of prescribed medicine, and at age 103, he had all of his natural teeth. He spent the last five years of his life in Masters Rest Home in Algood, smoked a cigar on his 100th birthday, and died on Oct 23, 1966 at the ripe old age of 103. He lived to be one of the oldest residents of Pickett County.
