Nancy and husband Jacob Hargis were originally buried in the Hargis Family Cemetery located off Paragon-Craney Road and Upper Lick Fork Creek. There were 28 cemeteries relocated in order to make way for the Cave Run Lake Project in 1971. The Hargis Cemetery contained 145 graves, several of which were unmarked, probably due to the cemeteries close proximity to the creek which flooded occasionally and wash away some of the markers. The flood of 1939 also removed the home of William Norvell Hargis and family living near the cemetery.
Nancy and Jacobs graves were moved to Alfrey Cemetery. Others were moved to various cemeteries around Morehead, Kentucky.
