My name is Carol Hardy Bryan. Many Hardy researchers already know of me, but I want all Hardy researchers to know that I have put my 20 years worth of research on Hardy families in Virginia, Georgia and Alabama in the Old Edgefield District Genealogical Society files in the Tompkins Library in Edgefield, SC. These are NOT family group charts, but sources of my information and extracts from published works. Plan a visit to see this absolutely amazing library.

The Tompkins collections of family materials is unmatched for a local genealogical society in a small town. People plan vacations to come through Edgefield and visit the Tompkins Library. You can contact them at 803-637-4010. They are open from 9:00 am til 4:00 pm weekdays.
