Additional Comments:
Joseph Davis Harden dies before 3 July 1837.  Frances "Fannie" Smith marries
Jeremiah Snellgroveo 24 January 1841 he is listed as Mirah and she is listed
as Frances Hardin. Marriage recorded Laurens Co., Ga. Henry Harden is show
with his mother and new husband in the 1850 Census he's 15 yrs. No one knows
what happen to him. Louisa is married but is not recorded and no one knows
what happen to her. All materials is back up with what I am saying..Family
sketches in Branches of the Branch & Allied Family by Ray Tapley., History of
the Rock Springs Baptist Church., Cemetery Records etc. As previously stated
the Harden Bibles are in the Possession of Mrs. Alice Bunkley, 2533 Quinn Rd.,
Chester, South Carolina zip 29706.  She lives out in the Lowery Community and
allowed me to have the Bibles certified by the Probate Judge there in Chester
County., South Carolina.  In addition Mrs. James {Louise K.} Crowder a
Genealogist was commission to research this family by the late Col. Harden of
Chester a West Point Graduate. Her notes or ref to them can be found in the
Historical Society or Local Library at Chester, Chester County, South Carolina.
