Freed slave John Hardy memorialized with county grave marker
A new granite marker will be dedicated at a county cemetery near Licking Creek in western Washington County for John Hardy who was born about 1840 and died about 1905. The article recalls Hardy, who remained in the Part Head area after emancipation, and credits his faith with his years of worship in a local gallery. Two July 4 services will feature speakers David Snyder and Surrey Williams, with the public invited to attend and wear appropriate attire.
