Hi There Jo, Do you know the parents of your Martin Hairgrove? Where was he born? Potter County Texas is in the Texas Panhandle area. Amarillo is the county seat. Shelby is in east Texas near the Louisiana border. The first Hairgrove to come to America was on a list of passengers transported to Virginia on the ship BONAVENTURE. Ship Master: James Ricrofte. RICHARD HARGRAVE AGE 20. So he was born in 1614 in England. Some of the vairations of the name: Hargrave, Hargrove, Hairgrove Hartgrove. There are several land patents in Richard Hargrove's name in Lower Norfolk Co. Virginia By the early 1800's some of the family had moved to South Carolina & Twiggs Co. Ga. The family began to scatter across newly opened Indian Territory in Mississippi, Kansas and Texas. My ancestors settled in Port Lavaco, Texas area in about 1856. Happy Hunting! J. Sorrells
