(This information was gathered from other members of the family.
Mrs. Gail Hardin of Herndon, VA., sent me the data on James Overton
Hardin circa 1990. Mrs. Mayoe Houf Smart of Fulton, MO., sent me the
data on the other families in 1986. I have not documented all of this.
There may be errors, and I would welcome any correct information.
