The following statement is listed at the bottom of the list of descendants of James and Rebecca (Finney) Hart.
It is possible that there was a close relationship between the family of James Hart and that of Thomas and Susannah (Rice) Hart. Thomas is said to have died in Hanover County, Virginia. Susannah and their sons, Nathaniel, Thomas, Benjamin, David, and John, settled in Orange County, North Carolina at about the same time that the Pennsylvania arts and Thompsons emigrated there. The families were associated in Orange County from the time of their arrival in the early 1750s, long before the marriage of Nathaniel Hart's daughter Keziah, to Captain Laurence Thompson.
