Harvey Family Trees

The Harveys of Greenbriar County Virginia
(which later became Monroe County West Virginia)

 
This came through my mailbox via the Harvey List (which, by the way, is not working right now, thanks to a spammer that abused the all the rmgate lists at Indiana Univ.), and I thought that it deserved a page of it's own. If anyone has more information on the Harveys of Greenbriar County, please share them with us! - A


Betty Allen wrote to the Harvey List:

Hello, I am interested in finding information on the following family from Greenbrier County.

Fredrick HARVEY m. 1843 Margaret BROWN
Children: Harrison
Henry Clinton m. 1867 Sarah Francis HENSON
? Deckard
Elwood A. m. Eliza A. ? ca. 1869-70

We think this Margaret BROWN was our GGgrandfather's mother, and are looking for that final connection. Son Elwood removed from Greenbrier in time to be found on the 1870 census for Lawrence County MO, which is also the first time our GGgrandfather, William BROWN, and his brother, John J. BROWN show up in Lawrence County.

William BROWN m. 1850 Greenbrier - Evaline AIRY
John J. BROWN m. ca. 1863 poss. TN or AR - Nancy Caroline MOORE (their first son, Samuel, was born in AR according to the 1870 census for Lawrence County.

Grandparents of Sarah Francis HENSON were William HENSON, Jr. and Margaret AIRY.
Relationship of Margaret AIRY and Evaline AIRY is not known at this time.
If you are researching this family, or know anything about them, please contact me.
Thanks, Betty

Does anyone have any information on NICHOLAS HARVEY, born ca 1760, of Greenbriar County, Virginia (later became Monroe County, West Virginia). I am searching for his parentage as well as his descendants, in particular a connection to a NICHOLAS HARVEY, ca 1810. The younger Nicholas married a HARRIETT (last name unknown) and had children:
William, b ca 1835, Virginia
Nancy, b ca 1837, Bartholomew Co, Indiana
Delilah, b 1840, Bartholomew Co, Ind
John,b ca 1842, Indiana
Mary, b 1845, Wapello Couny, Iowa
Harriett, b ca 1847, Iowa
Henry, b 1849, Iowa
Nicholas died before 1860 and the part of Wapello that the family lived in became Monroe County, IA. John and Henry later moved to western Iowa. Any help would be appreciated. I am a member of Delilah's family and have very little information on them.
