Notes:

Henry Hardin was born 175e, in Stafford County, Virginia. While residing on Hyco Creek in Virginia, near the North Carolina line, he enlisted in late summer or early fall, 1775, and served four months as a private under Captain Peter Rogers and Colonel Lewis in the Virginia troops and was in an engagement with Indians. He enlisted in the winter of 1776, rendezvoused at Hillsborough, North Carolina, and served six month as a private under Captain Moore, state troops not designated. While a resident of Woodstock, Virginia, he enlisted in July or August 1780, served eighteen months as a private in Captain Holdam's company, Colonel Campbell's Virginia Regiment and was in the battles of Camden, Guilford and Eutaw Springs. He resided in Woodstock, Virginia until 1796, when he removed to Dearborn County, Indiana, thence to Marion County, Indiana. He was allowed pension on his application executed November 13, 1832 at which time he was living in Marion County, Indiana, and was refered to as Henry Harding, Sr.

Hardinsburg, Dearborn Co., Indiana was laid out on May 19, 1815 by surveyor Moses Scott on land obtained from the U.S. government by Henry Hardin in 1801.

History of Dearborn County, Indiana (page 108)
Early in May,1796, Capt. Joseph Hayes and family and Thomas Miller and family settled in the big bottoms, three and one-half miles north of Lawrenceburg." Samuel Morrison was a son of Ephraim Morrison and no better authority could be obtained that he. Shortly after Captain Hayes arrived, Henry Hardin and family settled on the site of Hardinsburg. William Gerard and family and George Crist and family were also settlers in the same vicinity in the year I 7¢. On Laughery creek, it is claimed that George Groves settled at its mouth in I 794 and built the first cabin in the county. It is also claimed that Nicholas Cheek settled on Wilson creek in I794, about the same time that George Groves w:1s building his cabin on Laughery. Other authorities claim that Groves did not arrive until I 79~t The treaty of Greenville was not signed until August 3, 1795. and it is not very probable that any of these men would undertake to establish permanent homes until the full terms of the treaty were well known. It is more possible that these settlers were busy in I795 raising crops for the coming winter, and that by the beginning of the winter they would be aware of that portion of the treaty ceding all the lands east of the line drawn from the mouth of the Kentucky river to Ft. Recovery, to the United State$. This would naturally stimulate their desires to acquire some of this new country. All who came into this county before the land office was opened at Cincinnati, April9, I8oi, were just "squatters" and were locating desirable ground to enter. None of them could possibly have established permanent homes. When the land office did open, many of these families were doomed to bitter disappointment, because others, more alert or blessed with more ready money, secured the very lands they had selected. The year I 796 was five years before the land office was opened and that was a long time to wait for a chance, only, to secure the rewards for their patience and endurance. These "squatters" erected just an abiding place, made generally out of unhewn logs, with one or two rooms. The Indian had been so badly punished that it was antici .. pated, and correctly, that it would be several years before he could recover enough self-confidence to make any more attempts against the settlements. The desire for securing the pick of the land brought these families into the county before the land could be purchased at the land office. It was natural, for several reasons, that they keep close to the streams that enter the Ohio river and that, for the time, they remain near to navigation.
