Levin Harwood
(3 Jul 1792 - 22 Jan 1825)
Elizabeth is referred to as Elizabeth B. Harwood in her mother's will. Will of Levin Harwood probate 7 Feb 1825.
Levin's wealthy great uncle, Benjamin Harwood died intestate in Maryland 27 Jan 1826. Named among the heirs were Mary Ellen and Levin Harwood, his children [the source gives Mary and Ellen as two separate daughters but I believe this to be an error in interpretation]. Mary Ellen & Levin were minor heirs living in Kentucky.
