Captain Willis Hargarve

From The Hargrave & Flanders Connection website:

Willis Hargrave...who had been active in the Kentucky Militia and was a lieutenant in 1797 and a captain by 1803, engaged his service in the War of 1812 mostly guarding settlements against native attack.


Willis Hargrave's daughter-in-law, Mahulda Ann Bourland, was also married to William Roark, son of Michael and Nancy (Evans) Roark.  William Roark's sister, Eleanor E., was my ancestor.
