I was looking through what's new on Genealogy Library .com . They have " Early Virginia Immigrants, 1623 -1666 " I found RICHARD HARKY 1641 brought to VA by Thomas Mathews (unknown county in VA ) Looking further I found many other people brought in by Thomas Mathews and found he lived in Henrico County. This is the earliest record I have found for a name similar to ours----- Harkey, Harky, Herche etc. Mary Harkey Russell bird@scrtc.com http://www.scrtc.com/~bird

hmmmm, wonder if that is the same or close to the Reginald or Reggie Harkey came in 1600 something. I do not have my files handy, was hit by lightening other day and have a few file troubles, although I lost no family files. I think I have sent that one to you before Mary, could you check? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mary Russell" <bird@scrtc.com> To: <HARKEY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, September 25, 2001 10:39 AM Subject: [HARKEY-L] Newly found Harky > I was looking through what's new on Genealogy Library .com .
