Her remains are placed in a vault on the surface of the ground in the old Brewer Cemetery on Butler Creek, Wayne County, Tennessee. At one time you could look into the vault and see Nancy as she looked the day she was laid to rest.
*****************************************
Nancy was an amazing woman; independent, strong, with deep convicted about right and wrong. This court record is an example.
Wayne County Tennessee Chancery Court Loose Records 1900 -1909, May 11, 1907.
Mrs. N.E.Hardwick, I am 74 years old, live on Holly Creek, I am the widow of William Lewis Hardwick, Decreased and the mother of William Richard Johnson Hardwick and George Washington Hardwick, my husband, has been dead 39 years.
I did buy the interest of my son W.R.J.Hardwick in the land. I took a deed from him for his interest. The Richard M. Brewer who's name appears on the deed as witness is my brother and he is still living. He just wanted to sell, he got mad and in about three weeks after he married he came home (1861) and said I had to give him possession, I told him I wouldn't do it, he told me he was putting his mule in the lot and I told him if he did I would turn it out, I did and he give me a good whipping, he went off then and I didn't see him for a month or two, I took out a warrant for him and he was arrested and they got after me, I mean his brothers and friends, to compromise, I told them if he would sell out to me I would compromise it and he sold to me and I paid him for every dollar. We gave a mortgage on the land to get him out of jail in Florence, Alabama, and I then told him he could cut timber off the land to pay off the mortgage.
When John L. Bromley found out the deed for Rich's interest wasn't recorded he levied on the land. I have lived here for fifty one years.
