aquire a lot of information on the Hargest family and I will be happy to share it with you. I lost my family tree
off my computer last week, did not have enough memory to move it to an ezternal harddrive,however I do have a hard copy..So if you can give me a few days I will get the Hargest Genealogy together for you.
