Christian Huck
Christian Huck (1747/8-1780) was a Loyalist soldier from Philadelphia during the American Revolutionary War known for Huck's Defeat.
==Before the War==
Christian Huck was born in a German State of Europe in approximately 1747/1748. Sometime within the time of his life before the Revolution began (possibly but unconfirmed in 1772), Huck immigrated to America and studied law there. Huck was “reading” law under Isaac Hunt, "A Philadelphia pamphleteer, satirist, and lawyer before the outbreak of the Revolution.” 〔Scoggins, Michael C. The Day It Rained Militia: Huck's Defeat and the Revolution in the South Carolina Backcountry, May–July 1780. Charleston, SC: History Press, 2005. page 259〕 He was settled in Philadelphia as an attorney at law by 1775; buying and selling real estate for "ready money or short credit, on very low terms, giving security."〔Pennsylvania Gazette (Philadelphia) 12 April 1775.〕 As a wealthy, German Anglican, Christian Huck fit right in as a member of Philadelphia’s upper society, many of whom were loyal to the crown from the beginning of the War through to the bitter end.
