Surnames: Hardin, Harden, Harding, Rosewell Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/FcB.2ACI/1218 Message Board Post: I am looking for descendents of a Joe Hardin(Harden, Harding not sure which spelling) that married a "Lizzie" Rosewell from Arkansas. The only info I have is that they were living in Antlers, Ok. Lizzie would have been my great grandmother's sister (or half-sister). I am trying to find out if anyone knows the real story. The only other thing that I have heard from others is that the "Hardins" were feuding and when there was a funeral the law came and escorted them so no one would be killed. Crazy story. Any info would be appreciated. -
