Dear Carter, Thank you, what a wonderful friend and contributor you are for the Amburgey family. We are honored the governor shares a bit of our bloodlines. Or maybe it should be the other way around. Would you please write our new editor, Valeria Amburgey, and tell her about your website and Amburgey index? She might mention it in the next newsletter because it is such a great help to family researchers and many of our cousins know nothing of it. I would like to have the Hammons lineage and thank you for the offer.. Bless you for always helping.
