I do not subscribe to the newspaper portion of ancestry.com but have seen where there are two obits posted for a Nettie Hart who was born in North Carolina. If there is a kind person out there who does and would be willing to look these up for me I would be so grateful. They are as follows: Nettie Hart, The Washington Post, November 16, 1913 (1910-1919 series) (she might have lived there at one time); Nettie Hart, The Landmark, Statesville, NC; November 10, 1933 (many other dates were listed for same person but I don't know why) This Nettie Hart would have been born around 1857 in Chatham County NC. Thank you so very, very much for any help I might receive. Barbara K

Hi List I been quit for most of year but not bad weather is here I am back to my family history....I am looking for the Hart family from Mora Derbyshire...Sara Hart Married Joseph Banton My G, G, Grandfather in 1841 Most of the Banton Family came from Ticknell also Church Gresley Derbyshire if any one has any connection they know of I am willing to share information...i am willing to share information. On the Harts as well as Banton. Hope you all have a happy Christmas and new year Julie Banton :) My Web site http://groups.msn.com/BantonFamilyHistory

The 1860 US Census conducted in the Scott Twp, Linn County, Kansas shows my gggrandfather, John Marion HART(b. 9 Mar 1844) living his parents and family as follows: George Hart, 38 (b. 1822 in Ohio) Sarah Hart, 43 (b. 1817 in Ohio) John Hart, 16 (b. 1844 in Iowa) This is my ggrandfather Lucinda Hart, 14, (b. 1846 in Iowa) Minerva Hart, 12, (b. 1848 in Iowa) George Hart, 4 (b. 1856 in Iowa) Lodina Hart, 15 (b. 1865 in Iowa) I believe this is the niece of the head of household, being the daughter of George Sr's brother Isaiah Hart, b. 1821 in Ohio (see 1850 U.S. census Dist. #26, Keokuk County, Iowa) Anyway, I cannot find out what happened to the youngest son George HART (b. 1856). He does not show up in the 1870 census conducted in the same place as the 1860 census in Kansas. This 1870 census record shows the daughter, Lucinda living with her husband, Samuel SCOTT and their children in George and Sarah Hart's home, but no George, jr. I suspect he may have died, or gone to live with his sister Minerva's family, or off to work somewhere, but then I cannot find Minerva in the 1870 census either. I realize she probably was married, and do not know here married last name. If anyone has any information about this family, either the parents, George and Sarah HART, or the missing children, Minerva and George HART, or suggestions as to where to look for them, I would be ever so grateful. Here is wishing you a Merry Christmas and happy hunting for your ancestors. Sincerely, Steve Bruner, bru023@charter.net

Well, I finally found a HART! But what is "a charge of training and drilling, said to have taken place at Bettystown last July?" Do you think it might be practicing to be an Orangeman???

Hello All, Does anyone have any information about Belle HART who was born 6 Oct 1863? She married Elmer Elsworth Van Pelt 10 Aug 1881 in Mayfield, Fulton County, NY, and died in Clam Falls, WI on 13 Apr 1933. I am interested also whether is related to Gertrude Hart who married Richard Van Slyck about 1820. She died about 1847 in Mayfield, Fulton County, NY.

Hi, Does anyone know anything about Patience Hart who is on the 1860 census in CT? She is either living next to or living with a Benjamin Hart. Thanks for your help. Connie Working for God on earth does not pay much, but His Retirement plan is out of this world.

Carole Dick, coordinator of "My Hartt" at http://www.myhartt.com/ and myself (a Hart researcher) are wondering if there are still copies of this long gone paper still available. She suggests that I offer to buy or borrow copies. Anyone out there that can help us? Thanks in advance, Betty in Calif.

Are you a descendant of one of the following children? All are thought to be born in Reading, MA. except possibly Rebekah. John b ??? Thomas b ??? Elizabeth b 1651 Deborah b abt 1653 Samuel b 1656/57 Rebekah b abt 1660 (Lynn?) Adam b 1666 I am sharing with only 2 descendants of this family and one of them is the Canadian branch that added another "T" (or did we drop one?). Would like to find more family members to share with. The Canadian lady, Carole Dick, has a web site at: http://www.myhartt.com/ You can reach me privately at bettypatterson@sbcglobal.net Betty in Calif.

The following was posted to the Ancient Faces. Click on link to see photo. Nancy Artimasea Harrell Hart was born on April 29, 1849 in Gadsden, Madison County, Tennessee. She died on May 30, 1935 in Ripley, Lauderdale County, Tennessee. William Joseph Hart was born in Jackson, Northhampton County, North Carolina on May 23, 1842. He died on June 13, 1918 in Union City, Obion County, Tennessee. They were married on March 1, 1865 in Bells Depot, Crockett County, Tennessee. William Joseph Hart was a Confederate Civil War veteran. He was in the 51st Regiment - Infrantry under Captain W.H. Brown. Later during the war he fought under Bedford Forest. http://www.ancientfaces.com/family/photos/details/index.cfm?31741 This is not my family, hopefully it helps someone. Betty in Calif

Hi, Need any information on Robert Hart who died in Laurens County 1807/1808 and his wife, Mary (last name unknown). After Robert's death, Mary married Travis Fenn, Joseph Chairs and John Rowland and was predeceased by all of them. She was listed on the census records of both Jasper and Jefferson Counties, Texas in 1850. Her daughter, Frances (wife of Jeremiah Day) lived in Jefferson County and her daughter-in-law, Olive Barlow Hart (widow of Thomas Warren Hart) lived in Jasper County. The names of Robert's parents and Mary's maiden name have eluded me for years. Any information will be appreciated. Nell Whittington nellintexas@houston.rr.com

I have been looking for the parents of my gg grandfather for several years. I am sure you have seen some of my queries that I have posted on several boards. Joseph was born in NJ in abt 1810. He stated on the 1880 census his father was born in CT and his mother NY. He died in 1881 and is buried in Beloit, Wisc., I don't know what his mind was like in 1880 or who gave the census taker the information about his parents. In other words I don't know if it is valid information. I do have a couple of his grandchildren who have strange middle names for girls and I am wondering if they were family surnames. One is Bernice Vestal Hart and the other is Ida Bee Castle Hart. Has anyone found a marriage between a Hart and Castle or Vestal in their searches? Mel melmac7@earthlink.net

Dear Listers My interest in the Hart family begins (to work back) with Mary born 10 Sept. 1850 in Horton, Dorset, England, the daughter of David Hart and Charlotte Spearing who married on 9 Apr 1836 at Gussage All Saints, which is not far away from Horton. Mary's siblings are William b. 1837, Hastings b. 1843, Jane b. 1845, Maria b. 1847 and Anna b. 1853. Can anyone tell me anything about these siblings? Being a long way from Hampshire or Dorset I have been unable to find a conclusive parent for David, the father b. about 1807/8, as calculated from his age at death, in Horton, Dorset 1881. Can anyone help me find his parents? Mary Hart married William Riddell and had 9 children. My husband is a son of their youngest. With thanks, Tina

Sorry - I'm just building my addresses on my laptop. You can ignore this. Karen

Re: Hart photographs Any way these pics could be scanned for those of us who can't prove 'kin' but would like to print a copy for if and when we can prove?

I've "rescued" an old photograph of four HART girls identified as Lucy, Lathera, Laura, and Rhoda HART. On the back of the photograph is another photograph of a young man, Danford HART. There is no studio name or location on the photograph, however, someone has written "Cousin of H.H.G.". I believe that the initials belong to Harvey Hamblet GOODWIN identified in another group of photographs. Based on limited research I believe that this is a photograph of Lucy M. HART b. 8 April 1890; Lathera Irene HART b. 4 Jan 1884 in NE; and Laura E. HART b. 13 Nov 1892; and Rhoda H. HART b. 2 April 1895; all born at Kairo, NE, all to parents Eli Edwin HART and Mariett Lovina GOODWIN. Their brother Danford Alva HART was b. 28 Jan 1882 in WI or NE and died 16 Aug 1956. Danford married Christina M. LINK on 1 Nov 1905 at Wilcox, WA. This photograph was recovered along with other belonging to the GOODWIN, BALLOU, WOOD, HAMBLET, HALL, PAULSON, BURCHSTEAD, and DRURY Families of Pittsfield, MA; Springfield, MA; Milford, NH; Fitchburg, MA; and Leominster, MA; If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

I've "rescued" two old photographs belonging to the HART Family of New York. Both photographs were taken at the Arnold Studio in Ballston Spa, New York. The first is a photograph of Hattie HART of Ballston Spa, NY and the second is of Fannie HART also of Ballston Spa, NY. Both photographs appear to have been taken in the 1880's with both women appearing to be in their 20's at the time. Based on limited research and the help of a HART Family researcher I believe that the girls are sisters, the daughters of Charles C. HART and Eunice BIGELOW HART. The couple was living in Milton, NY during the 1880 census with three daughters, Carrie B. age 21, Hattie B. age 19, and Fannie F. age 17. All three girls were said to have been born in NY, as was their Mother Eunice listed as 49 years of age at the time. Their father was born in MA, a clergyman age 52 at the time of the census, both of his parents born in England. I am hoping to locate someone from this HART Family so that these wonderful old photographs can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

Hi fellow HART researchers. I am still looking for individuals or researchers of HART groups to join my HART DNA project. I will pay for the DNA test for anyone with a documented ancestry to Deacon Stephen Hart, born 1605, in Essex, England. My goal is to help connect all of the HART groups in the United States and the rest of the world with DNA testing. We are all connected. It is just a matter of how many generations back in time. Please contact me if you have any questions. Lewis W. Hart louhart@comcast.net --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Have you seen the write up in the Upshur County Sesquicentennial History Book. It has a whole section on George Washington Hart. Don't want to repeat it if you've seen it. Email me....

Please let me know, if you can, who James and Spicey Hart's parents were and where they can be found in the U. S. Census. James was born c1780 and died c1844. Spicey was born c1783 and died October 10, 1860 in Gilmer, Upsher Co, Texas. She is buried in one of the cemeteries near Gilmer. 1880 census records of their grown children in Texas indicate that James was born in Virginia and Spicey (Lawhon, aka Lawhorn, Laugharne, etc.) was born in North Carolina. Some descendants claim they were born in Ireland and Scotland, respectively, that they were married in Chatham Co., North Carolina, and that James died in Kemper Co., Mississsippi. I have yet to see proof of these claims. There have also been suggestions that James died in Marshall Co., TN, and that Spicey and her son, George Washington Hart, went to Mississippi after his death for about 4 years before migrating on to NE Texas, Upshur County where an older son, William H. Hart, had established himself after having been in Marshall Co. TN, with his father and father-in-law or brother-in-law (James Hart, Wm. Lawhon, Joel Lawhon, and Wm. H. Hart all appear in Marshall Co. Court Records in the late 1830s). Since quite a number of families mirgrated from Chatham Co., NC, to TN, especially to the Maury and Marshall County areas, I suspect that James' parents may well have lived in Chatham Co. Indeed, they may have migrated from VA to NC when James was still a young boy. There is a will of a John Hart, probated c1848, which lists a son James, but does not give the date of birth of the son. Some of the daugherters listed married men whose surnames show up in the same TN area. One of Spicey and John's children, a daughter, married a Tucker, with whom Spicey is living in Upshur County according to one of the later census records I perused. I found a Tucker living near a Hart in early Chatham Co., census records, but this is not proof enough! If anyone can help, please do so! Especially if you know which Harts might have migrated from Virginia to NC after 1780, especially to to Chatham Co. area.
