Hello, Hallmans, In the next few days, I'm going to copy some sections of Rev. H. S. Hallman's History of the Hallman Family. I will be giving his explanations on the spelling of the Hallman/Heilman name--the history of the name, and some of Anthony's history--as much as H. S. Hallman knew at that time. H S. Hallman published his book for the 1910 Hallman reunion in Berlin (Kitchener), Ont., so the copyright to his book has past the required 70 years. I will send the postings through this list (not as an attachments). A few of you have copies of H. S. Hallman's original book, or the later one published in 1991 by Joan Hallman, "Hallman Family History in Canada." Joan used some information from H. S. Hallman's book in the first part of her updated edition. For the most part, I will post sections of his book that she didn't use. Joan's book is the genealogy of the descendants of Anthony's gr-grandson, Benjamin & his wife, Elizabeth Detweiler Hallman. They moved, with their family, to Canada in 1825 so I won't be giving the genealogy of Anthony's family past the third generation. Many of you have more information on his U.S. descendants than I do, anyway! I'll be posting these messages through this week. Faith Hutchings Your List Hostess faith@verdenet.com
