[Four sons of George W. and Rachel (Goff) Hardman, of Lewis County, later Gilmer County, later Calhoun County, West Virginia, made their homes in Roane County; their names: Sylvester, Casset C , George, Columbus and Orlando. The last named two settled in Reedy District (which see) ; the first named two, about 1867, settled and improved large farms in Curtis District. George went to Calhoun County. There were thirteen children in all.]
[Orlando Hardman, son of George W .and Rachel (Goff) Hardman, was born March 8, 1846; married Miss Jennie Thorn in Wirt County, West Virginia, June 20, 1872; she was a daughter of Zadoc Thorn and wife, of Main Reedy below "Three Forks." They made their first home for some years in Calhoun County; then with their family of several children came to Billings on Reedy about the first of 1896, where he erected on his lands next the railroad station the best residence seen there; he died there, and there the widow yet lives. His farm when he first acquired it was the tract of more than five hundred acres, called the Hugh Kyger place.
To Orlando and "Jennie" or Virginia (Thorn), his wife, were born and by them reared—as I am informed—two sons and three daughters; their names: Everette, Russell, Lucy V., Rachel E. and Lillie Bell. The girls married at this Kyger and Billings home.
Rachel to Edgar S. Harpold, June 7, 1894, her age 19, his age 24; he was born in Jackson County, she in Calhoun.
Lucy V. married John McClung of Reedy, June 26, 1901; their ages not shown on the marriage record.
Lillie Belle married Walter Hugh Ryland, October 16, 1895, her age 20, his age 24; he was born in Richmond, Virginia.
Everette and Dr. Russell T. are at this time young business men stirring mention of themselves sometimes, but whether married or not we can not say.]
