The group traveled for forty-six days. For transportation, they used an ox-team and uncovered wagon.

While the group was traveling, Hannah Harwood was recovering from childbirth with Olive, making Hannah's health "delicate" to quote a book written in 1851, titled, History of the pioneer settlement of Phelps and Gorham's purchase, and Morris' reserve embracing the counties of Monroe, Ontario, Livingston, Yates, Steuben, most of Wayne and Allegany, and parts of Orleans, Genesee, and Wyoming. To which is added, a Supplement or Extension of the pioneer history of Monroe, By O. Turner. 

To paraphrase Tuner, Hannah required wine at almost all times; most likely to numb her pain and the alcohol to act as medicine. 

Webb Harwood did nothing short of providing the alcohol for his wife to ease her pain on the road. Webb even asked a man named, Ebenezer Spear, [the father of Lemuel Spear, who is buried in the Old Baptist Cemetery] to travel to Canandaigua to get Hannah wine.  When Ebenezer arrived to Canandaigua there was no wine to be found. Ebenezer had to travel to Scheneetady, New York to finally find some wine for Hannah. He bought six quarts of wine from a Mr. Charles Kane before walking on foot for fourteen days to deliver the wine.

Webb and Hannah built a log home just west of current day Palmyra village, about one half mile from the village of Macedon.

Their cabin was considered a 'rise-on-the-ground' cabin according to a newspaper article from the Palmyra Courier, published May 12, 1927.

In 1822 the Erie Canal, then known as Clinton's Ditch, named after New York State governor DeWitt Clinton, would be dug through the area. Webb and Hannah's home was located next to Clinton's Ditch. 

As recorded in Palmyra history, 

'By the Fall [of 1822], all grubbing and clearing along the route had been completed and blasting had begun. The "rock flies like hailstones'', visiting Palmyran Webb Harwood reported to a friend, "the most formidable thing I ever saw...if you were to see it, you would say the one-half was not told you. The work crews stop not for winter, no weather detains them, nor stands before them".

Webb Harwood was born January 2nd of 1757 in Uxbridge, Worcester County, Massachusetts. His father's name was Peter Harwood and his mother's Mary (Webb) Harwood. 

Webb Harwood lived with Hannah in Windsor, where he later recorded as a Church Warden in Windsor, in 1784.

Webb died at the age of 70. Although many records claim that Webb Harwood  died in 1824, Webb's obituary listed in the Wayne Sentinel, published in Palmyra, New York on Friday, February 2nd, 1827 states Webb died January 24th, 1827.

On May 4th, 1827 in the Wayne Sentinel, a newspaper clipping  declares a public auction of Webb Harwood's belonging after his death to be held on May 8th. Belongings available to be bought at the auction included, "one Waggon and Harness, one Cart, two Sleds, three ploughs, one Fanning Mill; besides many farming tools and implements of husbandry. [misspellings and grammar issues written as they were in the ad.]"

Webb Harwood does not have a found headstone but with evidence and records, it can be deduced that Webb Harwood is buried in the Old Baptist Cemetery as his wife is buried there. Also Webb started the church in his home, was one of the original members, attended the church and the land that the cemetery is on, was once Webb Harwood's land.  

Current work and research is being done to have a military headstone ordered for Webb Harwood and to be placed in the Old Baptist Cemetery as a replacement for his lost headstone.
