This book was written for the purpose of providing a reference for family members to continue the search for the Casbys and Hardamans. Knowing where you came from can answer so many questions about yourself. After tracing the maternal or paternal lineage of our ancestry over hundreds of years of living and struggles, we are able to visualize the trails our ancestry had to endure through documents, pictures, family storytellers, old home videos, and maps, while surviving a journey across countries and from state to state, leaving behind generations of Casbys and Hardmans around world. The center of this book is Mary Hattie Casbybefore, during, and after chronicling her family history and life and time she lived through.
