Prabook says he died of an aneurism in New York City and was buried at St. Paul's churchyard in that city, as well as that the lady to whom he was engaged died before him (so he had no children). Clearly, he could have been disinterred in NYC and reinterred elsewhere, but if so, re-interment would probably be about as easy in Isle of Wight County with family members as in Philadelphia. Also, I cannot find the disputed eulogy, as the page which supposedly has it doesn't display it nor a link, and the supposed will page on ancestry.com doesn't actually show Sam Hardy's final testament (which is usual for Virginia wills, tho West Virginia and some other states put old wills onlin). Since ancestry.com does display a document from his father Richard in 1781, and searches for William Hardy in census records using dates in the 1770s produce no hits, his executors may actually have been his brothers despite ancestry's catalog-type entry.Jweaver28 (talk) 21:12, 19 April 2021 (UTC)
