The purpose of this project is to promote and assist in the research on Zachariah and Rebecca (Petty) Harman and their many descendants and to try and find our ancestors beyond Zachariah Harman. It is difficult at times for one researcher to find the sources to document and prove a connection. Combining the efforts of many researchers will greatly improve and expand our capabilities to locating data and identifying new sources that will assist us in reaching our goal of documenting as many descendants or ancestors as possible.

Whenever someone hits a dead-end in their family research, there is always someone else that holds the key to the answer. Sharing our research will help shed light on many of these dead-ends. We encourage all Harman/Harmon researchers to share their knowledge, their research and documentation.  We welcome your comments and suggestions in making this project successful.

Over the years many people, now deceased, have shared their information and materials with us.  Without their assistance we would never have been able to prove our lineage back so far.

This site will continually be under construction. We will be adding new information and materials almost daily so be sure to check back on a regular basis, especially during these few months while we are getting the site up and running.   

Currently in our files, we have over 25,700 descendants of Zachariah and Rebecca Harman that expands eleven generations or more. Of course, the last two or three generations have many living persons, therefore only with the administrator's permission will anyone be able to see these. Not all descendants have firm documentation so if you can add additional information or documentation on any one of them, please do so by e-mailing us. 

 We will be glad to assist anyone interested in learning more about our relatives. If you have materials that need scanned into the project and you do not have a scanner, we will be glad to send you our snail mail address. That way you can just mail a copy to us and we will scan it in.  Please share your material so that we all can see where our missing links are.

We would like to say a special "Thank you" to Melinda (Harmon) Mathis for helping to get this new site up and running.  She has been very generous with her time and her knowledge.

If you have questions or would just like to comment on the site, we would love to hear from you.  Our e-mail address is harmanheritage@cmaaccess.com
