Descendants of James Howard

Generation No. 2

2. MYRICK² HARWARD (JAMES¹ HOWARD) was born October 12, 1783 in England, and died August 30, 1866 in Stanly County, NC. He married MILEA YATES December 01, 1803, daughter of William Yates.

Notes
The 1850 Stanly County census list Myrick's last name as Howard, the 1860 Stanly County census list his last name as Harward. The same thing happened to all his sons that lived in Stanly County. Malekiah Howard another one of Myricks sons live in Anson County and his name remained Howard. Malekiah Howard is James Thomas Howard's Father and Thomas Arthur Howard's grand father. I have not been able to determine why the family changed their name.

Myrick and Milea are buried in the Harwards' family Cemetery,Stanly County, NC. The Harward Burial Ground is loacated east of Oakboro,NC near the old Myrick Harwards' home place. Whick is on a hill above Rocky River near Long Creek. Myrick was a member of a Baptist Church and Milea the Primitive Baptist Church.
