Mary, Just because you seem to be having little luck with finding info on Leo Fenwick Hamilton, and were a neighbor to my wife's Hamiltons, and (actually my wife and I!)I'll offer this: We see Peliza Wells Hamilton (communicated in a private email as your gg-grandmother, second wife of Leo Fenwick Hamilton) as an apparent widow in the 1850, 1860 and 1870 Census in DuQuoin, Perry County, IL, living near a Lewis Wells. Her son is Lewis, presumably your g-grandfather, aged 4 in 1850. The marriage records for Perry County, IL show that Leo was alive in 1846 when he married Peliza. He is not found in Perry County, IL (apparently) in 1840, but there is a Leo Hamilton in Perry County, MO. (More on that later.) Family histories of the Wells family in DuQuoin, Illinois on RootsWeb say that the family migrated early to Illinois territory then returned to KY due to Indian problems, then returned to Illinois later. A search for Leo Fenwick (no Hamilton) reveals few hits online. However one of the hits shows a Leo Fenwick born in 1797 to Joseph Fenwick, and that Joseph's older daughter Clara or Claire married George Alexander HAMILTON. http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=hiteklawyr&id=I08 52 According to sources Joseph Fenwick himself moved to Perry County, MO before he died in 1820. Note this is where a Leo Hamilton in found in 1840. There are no sources directly suggesting that Leo Fenwick Hamilton is a child of George Alexander Hamilton and Clara Fenwick. However, what records there are online suggest that George Hamilton also lived for a time in Kentucky, as did the Wells, and dies around St. Genevieve, Perry County, MO, and that his father was also: Leonard. To me this suggests that Leo Fenwick Hamilton might well have descended from George Alexander Hamilton. If the William or Samuel Hamilton found in Perry County, Illinois in 1840 are shown to be descendants of George Alexander, it would be a fairer speculation. Can anyone on the list help?

I have a book on all persons buried in Bibb County, Alabama. There are several Hamiltons. If anyone would like a look-up I would be happy to do so. I believe the book covers parts of other counties too, like Blount. Myrta Hamilton Hessley

I would like to inquire about Thomas Hamilton 111 who went to Scott Co, AR to be near his brother, William Henry. Where was Thomas Hamilton 111 prior to 1850, and did he have children? Myrta Hamilton Hessley H144, Group A

Myrta, during the 1800s, there were about 30 HAMILTON landowners in AR. My James W. HAMILTON was one of those who homesteaded in Pike Co in 1870s. He came from Camus, Strabane, County of Tyrone, IRE. He was b. 1827, Came to US in 1848, supposed to have been naturalized in New Orleans In 1851-2; joined the Confederacy in 1861 Arkansas; mar Lawrence County, AL 1868 to Sarah A. Bain. He died in Sevier Co. AR 1/14/1918. I take interest in Hamiltons who settled in SW AR.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/xFh.2ACEB/4554.1.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: Actually, these records, are all referred to as Vital Records and they are a matter of public record. Which means that anyone, essentially, can access them. They are published in the newspaper around here (of course, so is Lucille's Tupperware party attendence & details, but that is another matter). Here, for instance, are the details on Wisconsin's records: Use the application form (a PDF file) and include all information listed below. Please enclose a self-addressed, stamped, business-sized envelope. You must also enclose the necessary fees (see below). Upon receipt in they're office, mailed requests are generally completed in 10-15 working days. Form: http://www.dhfs.state.wi.us/vitalrecords/pdf/BirthApp00.pdf In-person requests may be made at the Vital Records Office in Madison. It is located at the One West Wilson Street state office building, in Room 158. The office is open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., Monday through Friday. Identification is required for all records that are picked up. You may wish to complete the application form (a PDF file) before you visit they're office. Requests made by 10:00 a.m. are usually ready by 12:00 noon; requests made by noon are usually ready by 2:00; requests made by 2:00 are usually ready by 4:00 p.m.; requests made at 4:00 are usually ready by 10:00 a.m. the next business day. Fax requests are also possible, using your credit card. Please complete the fax application form (a PDF file). http://www.dhfs.state.wi.us/vitalrecords/pdf/faxbirth00.pdf Fees: The fee for the first copy of any birth record is $12.00. Additional copies of the same record, ordered at the same time, are $2.00 each. Therefore, two copies of the same record would be $14.00. Please make check or money order payable to VITAL RECORDS. Information needed to request a copy of a birth record: The relationship between the person named on the record and the person making the request. Example: my own, my child's, etc. Only the person named on the record, the immediate family of that person or anyone with written permission from the person named on the record or the person's family may get a "certified" copy of a birth certificate. Note: A "non-certified" copy of a birth certificate is available to anyone who applies. The reason for needing the record; The full name listed on the birth record; The date of birth; The city and county of birth; The parent's names including mother's maiden name; Your signature As you can see, this request service form is made available on line at their website http://www.dhfs.state.wi.us/vitalrecords/ which is very helpful. Now, if you have any idea where they were married, start looking in that county's records or, with the state Department of Health or Vital Records, whatever they are called (it varies by state). Here's a link to what counties they have records for and from what time periods: http://www.dhfs.state.wi.us/vitalrecords/genereq.htm#G4 (you may have to copy and paste to get entire address correctly). Older records are cheaper and easier, only because, unless you want original copies for your records, many records are indexed and listed online. Here's another tip to help you gather the story - contact the library in the town they lived and had their children. You would be AMAZED what some communities put in the paper. From the Ladies Auxilliary Club meeting details to who's bundt cake recipe was the favorite at last Wednesday's soup supper. These are also indexed and on microfilm in most places. There are look-up angels and local volunteers (do a search on a genealogy OR adoption sites for volunteer contacts) who may be able to search a bit for you or at least tell you whether or not the name is listed in certain time frames. Some are not indexed, in that regard, pack provisions, because it is A LOT of sitting and scrolling through microfiche. Good luck to you, let me know if you need help. Sincerely, Rachael

Also marriage records - these items are public record and available for a fee, of course, from the clerk in the county they were born. Trae back until you reach siblings of your grandfather's and find them or their descendents. Usually, unless it is a town of 2,500 or more, you can visit, say their names and people can direct you to their house (even the UPS lady knows where I moved to, who my sister is and where my mom works, etc). The post office is also very helpful in that regard. Once you find his people, you are in like Flynn. They know who went where and why and even if they don't have contact info, they can at least get you into the last known area and you can take it from there.
