"The Major Hardee Branch
The line of descent from Anthony Hardy and his wife, Everlyn Dulverton, the first of the Hardee line to come to North Carolina, to the author is as follows:
Anthony Hardy, m. Everlyn Dulverton
Noble Worthington Hardy (or "dee"), m. Mary Emily Parker
John Hardee (Pitt County, North Carolina), m. Susannah Tyson
Joseph Hardee (Dobbs County, North Carolina), m. Sarah Croom
Joseph Hardee, m. Sarah Bright
*Major Hardee, m. Elizabeth Mewborn
Parrott Hardee, m. Civil (Sybil) Ann Barnes
Dr. Parrott R. Hardee, m. Roberta B. Bacon
Col. David L. Hardee, m. Elizabeth Neely Harry.
On the [other] Hardy line, the descent is as follows:
John Hardy, m. Charity O'Dyer (brother of Anthony Hardy)
William Hardy, m. Edith Fewox (Fox)
Lemuel (Lamb) Hardy, I, m. Elizabeth Parrott
Benjamin Hardy, m. Nancy Howell
Lydia Hardy, m. Parrott Mewborn
*Elizabeth Mewborn, m. Major Hardee.
A family Bible that went back for a number of generations, some members of the family say to England, was inherited by Major Hardee and given in the division of personal property to his son, Bright Hardee, hereinafter cited as Bright Hardee of Johnston County. This Bible remained in his home near Clayton, North Carolina, until his death in 1899. After his death, this Bible was lost and with it disappeared much information that relates to the history of the brothers and sisters on the line of descent to and including Major Hardee.
Joseph Hardee and his wife, Sarah Bright Hardee, had two (2) sons, Major and Bright Hardee. Bright settled in Lenoir County, North Carolina, in what is now the edge of the suburbs of Kinston, on the old home place of his father, while Major Hardee moved to Johnston County, North Carolina, and settled on Black Creek. The present Hardee Cross Roads and the home of Ila and Alva Hardee, two of his great-grandchildren, are on a part of his original lands. From the division of his father's estate, he began the purchase of land. This estate must have been of ample proportions, for in 1828, while yet a young man, he purchased 160 acres, and again in 1830 he purchased 1200 acres, making a total of 1360 acres. Land was considered wealth in those days. He lived in a small house on the first tract from 1832 to 1835 until the house on the main plantation was completed.
The Major Hardee house was a typical cotton planter's house of the 18th century type, with huge chimneys at both ends, built of hand-sawn timbers, well morticed and held with hand-forged nails. It was the same style as the home in which Governor Charles B. Aycock was born, near Fremont, North Carolina, which has been restored recently by the State of North Carolina. The home of his grandparents was of the same model, but of smaller dimensions . The old home was standing in 1900 but has since been destroyed. In it, Major Hardee and his son, Parrott Hardee, both reared large families.
The graves of Major Hardee and his first wife, of some of his children and their wives, and of their slaves were seen in the family burying ground close by. The graves were marked with unlettered native stones, except for those of Parrott Hardee and his wife, which were of marble. It was in an open, cultivated field, and a number of years after the land passed out of the family, the cemetery gave way to modern farm machinery, and the site is lost, the lettered stones having been moved to the cemetery of one of his grandsons, John Columbus Hardee, whose burial plot is well fenced and on the old original plantation.
With the loss of the old family Bible, the dates of many important family records have disappeared. Major Hardee m. 1st, Elizabeth Mewborn, b. March 5, 1801, and seven (7) children were born to this marriage . After Elizabeth Mewborn Hardee's death, he m. 2nd, Elizabeth Bell, and two (2) children were born to this marriage. Major Hardee died between April 7, 1869 [1849], and the May term of the court of that year. His will is on file in the Johnston County Courthouse."
Parrott Hardee married Civil Ann Barnes on February 13, 1853 in Cumberland (Harnett) County, NC. Civil Ann (Barnes) Hardee was the daughter of David Barnes (ca. 1770/75 - 1849) and Bethania "Bethany" Newsom (ca. 1786 - after 1860) of Cumberland (Harnett) County, NC.
