MARK HART was born in the Broad River Valley of Georgia when it was still Cherokee and Creek territory. His parents had moved there from North Carolina. This area was later named Hart County in honor of his mother’s Patriot services during the Revolution. Mark’s father died in 1802 and his mother moved to Henderson Co., KY
His father, Benjamin Hart, Sr. was a Lieutenant in the GA Militia from 1777 to 1782. His mother, Nancy Ann Morgan Hart, is called the Georgia Heroine of the Revolution for her exploits spying on the British and killing several British and Loyalist soldiers. Nancy was a first cousin to Daniel Boone.
Mark moved west to Davidson Co., TN where he married Elizabeth “Betsy” Kimbro July 20, 1799. Betsy was the daughter of William Kimbrough (a Patriot of the Revolution) and Elizabeth Gooch. On the 1810 Census their households are listed next to each other.
In 1803, Mark’s land near the Stones River became part of the river boat trading community of Jefferson, Rutherford Co., TN.
During the War of 1812, Mark first served in 1st Reg’t (Wynne’s) West TN Militia and fought in the Battle of Talladega. Mark later served in 2nd Reg’t (Cocke’s) West TN Militia and was at the Battle of New Orleans.
