In the banner of this site, one can see nearly 100 years of the Harty family in these pictures. All the pictures are detailed below as to who and when. Also, if one was familiar with the background view, they would notice the land at the Lewis Farm, looking east in Stoddard County, Missouri. My Dad, Paul Jr, was born at this site in 1943. The home, built by his grandpa, Simeon E. Lewis and his son S. E. Lewis, has since burned down and the property is unfortunately owned by an unrelated family.
These are all great pictures and tell a great deal about the Harty family. Not only are there things to learn just by looking at the faces, but this banner shows a line of family that is descended from Daniel Harty. He arrived in Missouri around 1800. Our line comes from him through his son Andrew Jackson Harty to Ruben Franklin Harty Sr. and then onto the picture of Ruben Franklin Jr below.
Surely there is more than last name in common to all those who sat for these pictures...I bet they didn't figure they were posing for a picture that would someday end up on the Internet spanning over 100 years of Hartys!

Cool. I like the idea.
Yea, I think it will be good in time. Please advise if you would like to see certain things.
I really like the Harty Blog that you have created! The banner is really great! The first banner was good, but the placement on this one is so much better and just beautiful. A picture is truly worth a thousand words, so you have said a mouth full with this banner. The blog is well organized and easy to follow.
That comment was from my Dad, Paul Harty, not me.
I have really enjoyed reading about your family history which is part of my family history too. How wonderful on Mother's Day to see a picture of my mother as a baby. Thank you!!!!

Glad you enjoyed the site so far. I plan to keep adding stuff about Hartys and relations over time. The site is only a few weeks old.
I'm glad you were able to see you Mom as a baby on Mothers Day...that is very cool!
Please email me at bnbharty@yahoo.com or better yet, email my dad, Paul Jr, at grandpaps boy@yahoo.com to catch up. He asked for your info. I may be able to pull it off of your site somewhere, but I know he was very interested in speaking to you all.
I predict that your blog will draw a lot more Harty's together. It is a great website and thanks for providing the avenue for all of us to get back in touch again.
You will be blessed with the knowledge that you have helped to draw lost family members back together and increase all of our joy at this reunion!
