- To the Hartsell family genealogy website. What you will find
below are stories of people who are related to each other by
blood and marriage through the past centuries. If you are a Hartsell
descendant, you are most likely reading here about your own family.
But don't let that stop you from letting me know some of your
own stories as well.
-
- It is with great appreciation that I acknowledge the dozens
of family members who have shared their personal family information
so generously. The information contained in these pages is the
result of the work of many people over the span of many decades,
which, along with my own research, I have compiled over the last
several years. It is on-going and we are open to and welcome
all additions and/or corrections.
-
- The heritage of the Hartsell, Honeycutts, Lisenbys and Hancocks
was rich, if not in wealth, in sheer numbers. For there were
many large families. I found neither horse thieves nor pirates,
and did not find wealth or nobility as far as I read about our
families. Although daddy was indirectly connected to John Reed
through the Hartsells and Honeycutts of the famous Reed Gold
Mine of Cabarrus County, North Carolina. I don't think we ever
saw a fleck of gold, much less a nugget. There were many articles
for reading and researching in the local libraries and other
family books, but I never found anything that connected us to
kings, queens, nobility or anyone of great stature or wealth.
-
- We are very fortunate that all of the real difficult research
for three of our surnames: the Hartsells, Honeycutts and the
Lisenbys had already been published in books. Eunice L. Hartsell
Lechler published A Hartsell Hirzel History and Genealogy
of Four Hundred Twelve Years and another family cousin, Charles
Henry Fredrick Price published A Hartsell-Price Family History
and Genealogy 1971. Marie G. Wiggins published Our Lisenby
Lines. And George Franklin Hahn wrote Andrew Huneycutt
Family Descendants which is in local libraries here in Charlotte
NC.
-
- I found Eunice H. Lechler's note that she had left with Daddy,
so he could call her with any information about the Hartsells,
which she could include in her book. I began wondering and searching
about families and was overwhelmed at the wealth of information
that was available. I was very curious about other family members
and how we came to be in Cabarrus and Stanly County, NC. There
are many books in the Charlotte, Kannapolis, Concord and Albermarle,
libraries with information about our ancestors. There are also
many web sites with interesting and helpful information.
-
- Searching for family ancestors made them come alive and gave
them character and warmth. Hopefully my family and others will
fee the same about the information here and will help them to
know just how important our family is.
