==========================
Per "The History of Fayette County 1821-1971" c. The Fayette County Historical Society, Inc., 3rd printing 1991:
"William grew up as a farmer and miller in his father's mill at what was called Winn's Pond on Line Creek.
He had married Lucy Melviney Shell of Senoia in 1848, and they moved to Fayette County in the early 1850's. They lived in the southern tip of the County, which was called Whitewater District, because mail was delivered via Whitewater Post Office (Whitewater was the mailing address for the town of Brooks area right on through the War Between the States).
In May, 1861, four months after Georgia seceded from the Union a new company of infantry was being organized from Fayette County. William enlisted as a private in that company. They gave themselves the name of FAYETTE GRAY GUARDS, but the records show them as Company I, Tenth Regiment of Georgia's Volunteer Infantry, Army of Northern Virginia. As part of Longstreet's and A. P. Hill's Corps, the Tenth was in combat up to the fall of Richmond.
After four years of war, William returned home to take up farming again. First with two of his sons, Bart and Al, and then alone, he farmed for the rest of his days. These three Hardy men shared another interest, Freemasonry, and all were active members of the Brooks Lodge throughout their adult lives.
Descendants of the Bartow and William (Al) Hardy families now live in the Brooks area of Fayette County."
Per the Civil War Roosters for Fayette Co., GA:
Company I, 10th Ga Reg.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A family group sheet prepared by (unknown) was sent to me by Wilbur Nixon. It states that William died at Turin, Fayette Co., GA.
. . . . however, Turin is in Coweta Co. not Fayette Co.
