of John Nicholas
Harder and Mary Peery/Perry. Married Elizabeth
Pitt born 1/6/1781
Edgecomb Co. NC, daughter of Henry

Their daughter,
Henrietta "Eritty", was born in
Williamson Co>Co. TN 3/8/1807. Married Josiah
Lindsey, born 4/5/1805 NC,
10/27/1823 at
Lauderdale Co. Florence
AL. Witnesses were
John N.P. Harder and Sally
Lindsey with marriage performed
by David
Lancaster.
James
Harder was a primitive baptist minister and performed
a number of marriage in
Lauderdale Co. before moving to MS
with the Lindsey's. James died 8/12/1841 at
Itawamba Co. MS
and Elizabeth died 2/4/1868
Lee Co. MS.
Henrietta is the confirmed child of James and Elizabeth. I
suspect John N.P. Harder to be Henrietta's older brother, but have no confirmation. Also suspect Sally Lindseyto be
Josiah's sister.
