| Note* | From the Harbour book: Elisha and William reached Champaig n County, OH in early 1800s. In 1808 Joel and Sarah sold th eir land holdings in Patrick County and joined their sons i n Ohio, where they settled. Jesse is believed to have mad e the trip with parents just after his marriage to Jane Hal l. The Reverend Earl O. Harbour of Topeka, a descendant o f Joel, wrote (in 1968) the following on Joel: Joel Harbou r is the first Harbour in our recorded ancestry. He wa s a young man at the time the Declaration of Independence w as signed. In 1777 all men were asked to renounce allegian ce to the Crown of England and swear an Oath of Allegianc e to the Commonwealth of Virginia. In 1777 in Henry County , Va. Joel was among those listed as having taken the Oat h of Allegiance. Joel Harbour appears to have served thre e months as a private in the Milita from Henry County, an d to have been at the Battle of Guilford Court House. Hi s name was on a company list which I found printed in a pub lication of the Sons of the American Revolution. Virgini a did not keep official records of the Militia. The milita ry records are incomplete so this cannot be positively conf irmed. Joel and Sarah Harbour owned land in Henry County i n the part which became Patrick County. Their sons, Elisha , born 1782, and William, born 1785, were born here. Ther e were other children also. Eilsha and William went to Cha mpaign County, Ohio, soon after 1800. The land records of P atrick County show that Joel and Sarah Harbour sold all the ir land, 464 acres, in 1809, so they probably moved to Cham paign County, Ohio to be near their children. Other Harbou rs moved to Tennessee in an early day, others to Ohio and I llinois. (End of the Rev. Harbour's account.) Nowhere is h is research on Joel is there confirmation of Joel's praenta ge. The late Mrs. Wilbur (Mary Harbour) Grandle, of Rocky R iver, Ohio was the first reseracher to record that Joel wa s the son of Talmon and Mary (Wright) Harbour. She was a di rect descendent of Joel and researched the Harbours for man y years. We, therefore, accept her conclusions, subject, o f course, to confirmation by later research. | |
