TxLa© Family Photographs
I will refer to photographs as Great (g) or Great Great (gg) Grandparents, etc for my family's benefit.
It is however, their relationship to me, so consider that please.
Look for the colored boxes to match up parents with children :)

John Maurice HARDING b. 25 Jan 1911 Cedar Hill, Robertson County, TN d. 1990 NM, son of
Samuel Vorhees HARDING b. 6 June 1885 Keysburg, Logan County, KY d. Dec 1956 TX, son of
John Henry HARDING (photo coming I can't Wait!!!) b. 1 Sept 1847 Indiana d. 1930 Cedar Hill, TN-who was first a County Judge then a magistrate for over 50 years in the Logan Co, KY-Robertson Co, TN area who was a son of
Carpenter HARDING b abt. 1813 OH d aft 1887 was a Colonel of a regiment in the Mexican war and served with the 22nd Indiana Volunteers in Civil War. He was a son of
Stephen HARDING from the lineage of John Harding who immigrated from England. Stephen information and back was obtained from the "Hardings in America" book by Wilbur Harding, who was also a descendant of John from England. (see Home for more on that lineage)

My Grandfather - John Maurice HARDING is the one who started me on this Genealogical Quest. He had a very strong desire for me to know "his people" & share what information I could find in the future with our wee ones whom I like to call the "little people" or the generations to come. He knew he was getting older, and although he was a mere 69 yrs young in 1980, he had led a very interesting yet hard life. And I can say that I've yet to meet a nicer, gentler man. No offense to my father ;) click here for more on John M. Harding.

Living BUCHANAN HYDE
College Graduation 1949
To me, Aunt B has always been the smartest. She is still of very sound mind and a wonderful lady that raised 3 Great kids. Her husband Rusty HYDE died in the early 1990's.

Sisters

Living BUCHANAN HARDING
1954
Mother
She takes after the BUCHANAN side of the family from her height, eye color, to her ways. She played softball in High School, reason for short hair. ;)

The above photo: When I recently went to visit Mom & Dad, they shared photo's with me. This is a Negative! I decided to try scanning it, but it didn't turn out, so I placed a white piece of paper over it, scanned it & saved the file. Next, I used a feature called Negative (it allows you to change a photo from normal to a negative), and this was the result.
The negative is so scratched and old, I didn't think that this would work, but it did & so now you can see the photo of my Mom posing! ;) hehehe

Note about next set of Photo's: I naturally have more recent photo's if I get their ok, I'll put those up in lieu of these. I have a beautiful one of Mom and Dad
at his parents house John & Living Mills house. :)
