Help me with Huffmans? Please?

Hello, Huffmans (both by name and by blood)--
My great-grandmother's maiden name was Huffman. She was Eunice Almira, daughter George Washington and Loretta Olive (Brown) Babcock Huffman. She was born in either Rock or Walworth County, Wisconsin, in 1871 and died in Benton County, Arkansas in 1936. She had three siblings: Lizzie Malinda, Bert (possibly HERBERT, as one of his sons was named that) L(ivingston?) and Fitch Brown (named for his maternal grandfather).
Her father, George Washington Huffman, was the son of Michael and Mary (Livingstone) Huffman and was born in (I believe) Clark County, Ohio ca. 1833 and died in Moody County, South Dakota, in 1898. He had two siblings that I am aware of, a brother John L. and a sister Matilda J.
Michael Huffman was, according to the caption on a photo owned by a great-aunt, the son of Christopher Huffman of Hampshire County in what is now West Virginia. I have never seen any documentary evidence to either prove or disprove this. I know that Michael's wife, Mary (nee Livingstone) was from a (Harrison County) West Virginia family (_her_ parents, Andrew Livingstone and Jane Davis, married in Harrison County, West Virginia in 1800), but she and Michael married in Ohio in 1831. There _was_ a Christopher Huffman resident in Hampshire County, (West) Virginia in 1792, but I have _no_ idea whether he is Michael's father or not. And I would very much _like_ to know that! Also the name(s) of Michael's siblings (if any) and his mother! Any help anyone out there can give me will be much appreciated!
Thank you in advance, and good (ancestor) hunting!
