Thomas F. Harney

Good going, John. The last time I heard anything about Howell, we had only gotten as far as his father. Would love to know mother's maiden name. Boy, that Harbin name just floats through this whole story - Thomas had a covert operation going right within his own family.

When I was growing up, we were friends with a local family named Harbin. We called Mr. Harbin "Buddy," but his given name was Henry. Wanna bet that he descended through Thomas's brother's line? At that time, I wasn't smart enough to connect the dots between Thomas Harbin and Buddy Harbin (if there were any to connect).
