"[Maury Co., TN] CIVIL CAUSES, 1832: WILLIAM HARGIS says that he is poor and unable to give security. That he purchased tract of 4 acres from RICHARD BENTLEY. Bentley has violated the contract and is trying to defraud Hargis. Bentley has removed to Illinois and intends never to convey the land to Hargis. ROBERT WELLS (brother of Thomas J., Samuel, Nancy Mitchell, et al) has purchased some of the land and that he is the son of David Wells (Sen'r, by first wife, Nancy Garrett). Depositions to be taken of William Osborne, age 26 and ISAAC REDDING, age 26, re: the crops and crop value."
No deeds of purchase or transferral were found in Maury County for the surname HARGIS between 1807 and 1860. William Hargis and his family were recorded in the 1830 census in the extreme southeastern section of Maury County -- the Fountain and Globe Creek area. He was born between 1770-80, his wife (40-50 yrs), males: 1 (5-10), 1 (10-15), 1 (15-20); and females: 2 (<5), 2 (5-10), & 1 (10-15). William Hargis and his family had evidently moved westward to Fayette County by 1836.
