The
Hari Lord descendents link to the
Jacob Potter descendents at
Sarah P. or Serophina Lord, wife to
Willis Potter. Sarah is likely a 10th generation descendent
of Hari Lord.
Hari Lord Descendents—10 generations
Sarah P. or Sarophina Lord Ancestors—8 generations The
descendents of Hari Lord are extensively documented at several sites
(see Database Sources). My "Lord" research has been primarily
limited to establishing a link between
Sarah P. or Serophina Lord (wife to Willis Potter) and the Hari Lord
descendents line through
Nathan or Nathaniel Lord, Sarah's great-grandfather. I have
otherwise not done any original research on the Hari Lord descendents.
Nor do I expect to do so.
While the preponderance of
evidence so far suggests that this Nathan or Nathaniel Lord is the same
as the Nathaniel (Nathan) Lord (b. 17 Feb 1744/45) of the Hari Lord
descendents line, it should be noted that my family source record [Francine
Toms Potter] does not indicate Nathan or Nathaniel Lord's parent's
names. There are discrepancies in the source records as to his
birth place; the independent sources so far investigated (which have his
birth place as Buxton, York, ME, in agreement with the family source) do
not indicate his parents. Only one other source (independent from the
family source) indicates his wife as Hannah Fields. While
unlikely, it is therefore possible that there were two Nathaniel or
Nathan Lord's born on the same date in York County, Maine; or that the
various sources are confusing two different individuals born about the
same time.
There is therefore some
weakness at this point in proving the line. However, it seems
likely that Sarah P. or Serophina Lord is descended from Hari Lord, just
not necessarily in the line given here.
