Disputed Wives
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Harmon-432
We know Francis had a wife, but she is unknown. Any other name is unproven.
--Although, some online trees have named a Sarah Clark b. about 1587 as the wife of Francis Harmon, the reality is that the name of the wife of Francis Harmon is not named in New England records. A James Harmon was married to Sarah Clark and accounts for this error. This profile was disconnected from Francis and merged into Sarah wife of James. --A Francis Harman and a Katherine Crewett were married 02 Feb 1624 at Saint Andrew By The Wardrobe, London, London, England[1] However, a marriage record for a Francis Harman does not constitute proof that this is the wife of the Francis Harmon, who enrolled in 1635 with children Sarah and John to go to New England.
Disputed Child
Nathaniel Harmon. There is no evidence that points to Francis and his wife as parents of Nathaniel.
Biography
43 year old Francis Harman was enrolled as one of 8 passengers on the Love at London in 1635, along with 10 year old Sara Harman and 12 year old Jo[hn] Harman, assumed to be his children. (It is unknown whether the ship actually sailed.)[2] Since no wife was listed, Francis was likely a widower at the time. Given Puritan naming patterns, having a girl named Sarah increases the probability that the children's mother was named Sarah.
Anderson (Great Migration) states: No evidence has been found that this family arrived in New England. He lists only the two children on the manifest John and Sarah and states there is no further record.[3]

I will upload the Great Migration Project sketch, and unless anyone can show differently, will proceed with disconnects.
