The twists in this family are far from a dead end.
Nothing less than pure confusion, close relatives of mine, residents of Newfoundland, Canada tried researching the family's history and looped as far back as rumors of a "Hartzphen" or "Harzven"name from Germany's late 1800's.
I do know that my grandfather, Aldouphus Joseph Hartson is a first cousin to British Football star John Hartson's grandfather.
We are somewhat sure that the family settled in Newfoundland's Burin peninsula in the late 1800's/ early 1900's with a name change from Harshorne, or Hartstone, but as to when the family ended up back in Britain under the name Hartson is quite unknown.
