I don't have anything on Harriet except that she was born abt. 1835 to David Harvey & Sarah Dakin Harvey. I descend from this family too. I descend from Edmund Sylvester Harvey, son of David & Sarah... I wish I could help more with Harriet, but I do have alot on Sylvester's family and the ancestors of David... beth ARNOLD, BEEMAN, BOLIN, BUSHMAN, CANNAUGHTON, CARTER, CASE, CHAMNESS, CHAPPELL, CLYMER, COLT, COMSTOCK, COTTERMAN, CRAIN, CROOK, DAKIN, DANIEL, EARL, ELLISON, GOODRIDGE, GOODSPEED, HARVEY, HERNANDEZ, ISETTS, JENSEN, JEWETT, LANGDON, LASURE, LUSSIER, MANSFIELD, McPHERSON, NEWLIN, OSBERG, PETERSON, PHILLIPS, PLOUF, RALSTON, ROOT, SANDBLADE, SCOTT, SELDEN, SHUTSCHNEIDER, STAPLES, VESTAL, WALTMAN, WOODWARD ----- Original Message ----- From: Jaime Lossing Potts <jlossing@ots.com.pe> To: <HARVEY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, May 04, 2000 4:48 PM Subject: [HARVEY-L] Most wanted: Parents of Harriet Harvey Hurst > > Harriet HARVEY-HURST Bureau Co.
