John Bratcher According to the county records, Robert Hardy purchased of John Bratcher in 1803 five hundred eighty-two acres of land in the big bend of Staunton River, where the station and village of Hardy are now located.  This land he laid off in lots for the establishment of a town, and in 1818 he sold a number of them to different people, the deeds to which describe them as being in the town of Hardyville.  Mr. Hardy died in 1830, and after his death a warehouse was built close to the river, but the boat trade which was to build up the town failed to materialize and the lots went back to farm land.  The Virginian Railway crosses the road from Roanoke to Franklin Count near Hardy's Ford and this gave the name to the railroad station. 1
