I have a Harding problem with a theory, but no good data. Perhaps you can help. A Susanna Harding married William Brown 27 Oct. 1699 <MD 8:243>. She may have been the widow of John Harding of Eastham, who died 14 June 1697, leaving widow Susanna. <MD 32:81>. Their second child Lydia b. 30 Apr. 1702 may have been the Lydia Harding who married Simon4 Newcomb in 1722. This John would probably be of the fourth generation in your listing, and given the patriarch's name, there may have been several Johns by that time. If your books/records etc have any clue to the ancestry of this John and of his wife Susanna, I'd appreciate hearing about it (with citations where possible).
