Hello, Mary and all-- You asked for corrections to your list of Martin HARKEY's children. I'm in no position to correct your list, but I can tell you where your info differs from mine. None of my info is my own research. Most of it comes from Joseph Harkey's family history--"JH" in the following. I'll list only those children and only those items for which I have more or different info from your query. Again, I can't vouch for its accuracy. . 1. Elizabeth HARKEY, b Mecklenburg Co. NC, d 29 Sep 1862 Stanley Co. NC; m (23 Nov 1794) John SHOE; any descendants? /[re Elizabeth. Bapt. record: JOHN SCHUH, b 23 May 1799, bap 4 Aug 1799, s/o John SCHUH and Elizabeth (HERGER)]/ 3.
