  	FIRST GENERATION KNOWN BLASSINGAME W.HARVEY OF SAN AUGUSTINE CO., TEXAS By Joyce P. Hervey http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~hervey/HFAV5.htm Nancy and John Harvey probably had the following four Harvey children: Amanda Harvey, b. ca. 1823 in MS; Charles Calvin Harvey, b. 10 Feb. 1825 in LA; John Austin "Aus" Harvey, b. 26 Jan. 1827 in LA; and Daniel Harvey. Whether they belonged to Blassingame or his brother John J. is unclear; however, it is likely that they belonged to John J., since the land transactions cited above seem to imply that Blassingame sold out and left Nancy about 1820. Evidence for the assumption that the above are all Nancy's children comes from San Augustine Co. records.1 Malinda (Bowie) Haggerty and her husband Jefferson Haggerty, along with their young daughter Araminta (b. ca. 1831), Malinda's brother, John Bowie, and three of the four Harvey children named above, i.e. Amanda, Charles Calvin, and John Austin, (Daniel remained in LA) arrived in San Augustine County in 1834 and located near the Blassingame W. Harvey family. This is how they were listed at the time of the 1835 Sabine District, Texas census: 255. Thomas J. Hagerty 28 married Catholic farmer Malinda, his wife 21 Aramenta, daughter 4 Jane, daughter 5 mo. Nelson, man servant 40 Fan, wife, servant 23 Maria, her child 4 Mareah, her child 5 mo. 256.
