Ziba Hardee daughter Missouri Hardee

Ziba and Tabitha Hardee daughter,
Missouri Hardee



Missouri Hardee was born March 14, 1854 in Alabama. Some people have Missouri Hardee listed as William and Juda's first child. I believe she is Ziba and Tabitha's last child. (William Hardee is a son of Ziba and Tabitha.)
No census record has been found for Ziba and Tabitha for 1860. However, I do have the 1860 census for William and Juda and Missouri is not listed in their household. If she was their first child she would be in their household.
Also, Missouri was born in March of 1854 and William and Juda were married in November of 1854. No way during that time would a couple have a child out of wedlock. 
Ziba and family moved to Texas around 1861 and Ziba died in 1862. Missouri would have only been eight. In the 1870 census Tabitha listed as Sybatha is listed as head of household and has her son Pinkney Hardy age 18 and a female listed as Mosaria Hardy. I believe this is Missouri and she is the last child of Ziba. 
William and Juda lived next door to his mother and siblings in 1870, I believe they would have been a big part of Missouri's life. 
When Missouri died her daughter in law listed the father as William Hardee and the mother as Don't know. I think this is were the confusion of who her parents are came from. 
Missouri Hardee married John Miles Tomlinson on February 5, 1872 in Van Zandt County, Texas. 
In 1880 they are living in McMullen County, Texas.
I don't find them again till 1920 and they are living with their son James "Jim" Tomlinson and family in Eddy County, New Mexico.
John Tomlinson died July 3, 1920 and is buried in Artesia, Eddy Co., NM.
In 1940 Missouri is living with her son James Tomlinson and family in Coconina County, Arizona. 
Missouri died Septemeber 8, 1947 in Flagstaff, Coconino Co., AZ. She is buried in Artisia, NM with her husband.

Ziba Hardee and Pinkney Taylor Hardee

Ziba and Tabitha Hardee son,
Pinkney Taylor Hardee


Ziba and Tabitha's tenth child was Pinkney Taylor Hardee. I've also seen it spelled Pinckney,  believe he was called Pink for short. Pink was born August 23, 1851 in Talladega Springs, Coosa County, Alabama.
He traveled with his family and siblings about 1861 to Van Zandt County, Texas.

On July 28, 1872 he married Mary E. Bryant in Van Zandt County, Texas. Mary had previously been married and brought two children into the marriage.

In 1880 he is still living in Van Zandt Count, Texas with his wife and children and his widowed mother, listed as Sabitha is also living with the family.

Pink and Mary Hardee had ten children: Sarah Jane Hardee born Jun 4, 1873 died Jun 8, 1873; P. S. Hardee born Jan 31, 1875; William Taylor Hardee born May 1877 died 1916; Mary Jane "Mollie" Hardee (Coker) born Mar 12, 1880 died Dec 16, 1950: Infant Hardee born Feb 18, 1882 died Feb 19, 1882; John Pinkney Hardee born Mar 18, 1883 died Nov 29 1946; Rosa Lee Hardee (Cade) born May 31, 1885 died Jan 3, 1980; Infant Hardee born Oct 8, 1887 died Oct 29 1887; Julia Florence Hardee (Williams) born Oct 20, 1888 died Oct 20 1977; and Edward Brooks Hardee born Feb 7 1892 died Sep 5, 1977.

Pink Hardee died Jan. 7, 1927 and is buried in Chandler, Henderson Co., Texas. Chandler is where his son Edward Brooks Hardee was living.
