my experience of 11 years researching in detail my own HARTING ancestry (from northern Germany to New Minden, Illinois 1854) that each of the names you mention: Hartong, Hartung and Harting have separate identities, which can upon occasion be changed to another spelling or to be mistaken one for the other. I have found this change from Hartung to Harting especially frequent for some reason. There is a place in Sussex England which is Harting, which belies the rule that Harting is a good GERMAN name. Hart= hard in German; thus Harding is english but Harting is German. It is my belief that all three names are of original German origin. paul harting
