THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY TO MY HARDESTY HOTEL POSTING. DO YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW THE FIRST NAMES OF ANY OF THE HARDESTYS OF WHICH YOU REFER TO IN YOUR REPLY? I TRIED TO REPLY TO YOU AS SOON AS I GOT THE MESSAGE BUT, I COULDN'T GET THROUGH. HAD TO GO BACK TO WHERE I POSTED THE QUERY. MY GREAT GRANDFATHER: WILLIAM T. HARDESTY LEFT THAT AREA AND I NEVER HAVE BEEN ABLE TO FIND OUT WHERE HE WENT. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED, THANKS----DON HIGGINSON
