Individual Details
James Harmon
(22 Nov 1822 - 16 Dec 1900)
Although Patrick appears as the father of James on the Facebook page, most databases online show no son of Patrick as James. I believe he may have been the son of an earlier wife and was likely born in 1821 instead of 1822.
The marriages of Carroll Co as found on FamilySearch.org would suggest there were two men named James Harmon. There is a marriage, 2 Feb 1854, for Jas. Harmon, age 27 [b. 1827] to Sarah Mallory, age 26 - The groom's mother was Marry Harmon; the parents of Sarah were Ste. and L. Mallory.
He is said to be in the censuses 1850 & 1860, Carroll Co, VA, 1880 in Macon Co, MO.
