Hardy Lanier 
                          1765 - Before 1840

Hardy Lanier's name appears as resident of Effingham County, Georgia, 1788; he possibly came to Effingham County with his brother Lewis. He was in Bulloch County, Georgia, from 1790 to 1797 where he was frequently on the Jury and also acted as Chair Carrier in surveying. Records indicate he was in Bryan County in 1797, and was settled in Liberty by 1802. In 1811, he appeared on the tax lists of Camden County, Georgia and before 1820 had moved to Alachua County, Florida where he died before 1840.
