One of these who I think may have been Solomon's brother was named Ichabod Harp. In fact, Ichabod was a purchaser at the estate sale of old William Bohannan in 1816. Ichabod Harp sold land in Overton Co, TN on 24 Oct 1831, but was listed on the 1832 tax list there. In the land patents I found that Ichabod Harp of Gallatin Co, IL patented land in Saline Co on 7 Aug 1834. During that time there was a marriage of Elizabeth Harp to David Tanner on 21 Mar 1832 and of Nancy Harp to StephenTanner on 16 Oct 1834 in Gallatin Co. I believe that Elizabeth & Nancy were probably daughters of Ichabod. By 1838 Ichabod was living in Carroll Co, AR (tax list) and apparently remained in that area- dying sometime after the 1840 Carroll Co. census. I searched records in Carroll & Newton Co, AR for these Tanners, but no luck. So I asked for a lookup for them in Gallatin Co, IL. They were found in Saline Co. Stephen & Nancy Tanner were there and David was there, but with a different wife. It appears his 1st wife died.
