Nannie Estelle Gardner was the daughter of George William Gardner and Mary Ellen or Eleanor Cunningham (married 26 Sep 1876 in Berkeley, West Virginia). She married Rev. William Russell Hardesty on 3 Dec 1908.

They had 3 Hardesty daughters (connected below):
Mary Regina, 4 Mar 1910 (Alfred Leith Megeath)
Ruth Gardner, 4 Nov 1918 (Harry Bowen Brittle)
Anne Lee, 2 Oct 1920 (Ira Joseph Drive)

On the 1900 Mill Creek, Berkeley, West Virginia census, I found farmer William Gardner, 47, Oct 1852; wife of 24 years, Mary Gardner, 47, Jan 1853, had 4 kids, all living: children: Guy Gardner, 21, Oct 1878; NANNIE Gardner, 19, Mar 1881; Katie B Gardner, 17, Sep 1882 and Lillie P Gardner, 14, Apr 1886, all West Virginia born.

On the 1910 District 102, Aquia, Stafford Co., Virginia census, I found Methodist minister, William R Hardesty, 28; wife Nannie G Hardesty, 29 and daughter May R Hardesty, 2/12. William was born in Maryland and Nannie and May in West Virginia. Address not listed but says it was in the "Aquia Magisterial District partly South of Aquia River."

On the 1920 Lee, Shenandoah, Virginia census, I found church clergyman William R Hardesty, 39; Nannie E Hardesty, 39; Mary R Hardesty, 4 and Ruth G Hardesty, 1 1/12. They lived on South Main Street. They were all born in West Virginia, except for William, born in Maryland.

On the 1930 Easton, Talbot Co., Maryland census, I found M E South Preacher, William R Hardesty, 48; wife Nannie G Hardesty, 48; plus daughters: Ruth G Hardesty, 11 and Anne Hardesty, 9. William was Maryland born, Nannie and Ruth in West Virginia and Anne in Virginia.

On the 1940 Shepherdstown, Jefferson, West Virginia census, I found widower Nannie G Hardesty, 59; daughters: school teacher Ruth Hardesty, 21 and student Ann Hardesty, 19. Ann was born in Virginia and the other two in West Virginia.

I could not find her on the West Virginia Death index. Plus, I spoke to the church pastor D.R., and she could not find any further data in their records, on her incomplete dates.
