Lydia,
There seems to be 2 families of hartwells in VA one came from 2 brothers
Who was John Hartwell and "William Hartwell ---- these brothers came from
England and John served in the government and William was an officer John
had no surviving children as I recall and went back to England to spend his
last days and there is a will on him ----- also William married and
married well and I believe his children inherited..... William was apart of
the suppressing of the Bacon uprising and there is a written account of
charges against him....

Another group of Hartwells came over about 1750 or so and it seems to be a
father and son I am not sure the son was born over here or not Israel
Hartwell---Paul his son and one of Paul's sons Armstead is my ggggrand
father this family is document at the DAR. Paul and Israel and armstead all
have wills to trace back ..... someone seems to have found that Israel came
over from Scotland about 1742 but this is not a Scottish name -and I have
never found any documentation on it --- the Hartwell name comes out of
Buckinghamshire... in England so if your ancestor is coming out of VA look
at these two families ---I have never made a connection between the 2 but
that does not mean there is one or that group up in Mass.

received her funeral records it states her father was William Hartwell of VA
