HI Guys!!

I have some data on a Harmon family taken from Appalachia Crossroads: The
Descendants of Hezekiah Sellards by Clayton R. Cox, Gateway Press, Inc.,
Baltimore 1977

In this book, Mr. Cox tells the story of my 4th great grandmother, Jenny
Sellards Wiley dtr of Hezekiah. The story mentions a place called Harman's
Station, which was owned by a Matthias Harman. There was a Matthias Harmon
also at WALKERS Station whose son founded the Harmon's Station in Blockhouse
Bottom, outside of the present Paintsville, KY mentioned above, but Cox did
not know whether the two were connected. The HARMONs mentioned specifically
in this book are:
Avery;
Birdie;
Eleanor;
Ella;
Ethel;
Hendrick;
Lenore;
Lettie;
Lucinda;
Matthias;
Melissa;
Wash;
Will.

If any of these names fit in your family lines, please post to me directly
and I will be glad to send you the data on them. I do not have any other data
on this line.

I do have the following in my genealogy data:
