Hough, Lynn Harold, 1877-1971

Hough was born and educated in Appalachian Ohio, earning a degree from Scio College in Harlem Springs (now the University of Mount Union in Alliance) in 1898. He spent most of his career outside the region; he served at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois (president, 1919-20) and the Drew University Theological School (professor and dean, 1930-47), and pastored Methodist churches in Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, and New York. He was also pastor of the American Presbyterian Church in Montreal from 1928-30.

Hough’s papers are housed at Northwestern and Drew. Additional information can be found in Hough’s Wikipedia page, an obituary in the New York Times, and the biographical sketch published alongside his sermon in William Stidger, If I Had Only One Sermon to Preach on Immortality (New York: Harper & Brothers Publishers, 1929).

Hough User Guide

Robert H. Ellison

The User Guide for the Library of Appalachian Preaching is a Google Sheet that can be searched, sorted, and downloaded for offline use.

At the moment, Hough has only one sermon in the Library; it has a Guide of its own so the records will be complete. It includes the title, sermon text, date and place the sermon was preached (if known), and so on. This information is available in the master list of sermons as well.
