I have tried to reply directly to you, but it keeps coming back. It tells me that you are not receiving messages from the sending. So, I sent this message to the Hamilton list so you could get it. *smile* I know it does; and what makes it harder is that my father is named after him. Major (born in July 1883, died 1957, buried in the Swafford Chapel Cemetery in Pikeville, TN) married Della HOGE. I have found the HOGE line on another website, and they have Major listed as Thomas HAMILTON. To this marriage were 13 children. I have more information on the children now, but if we can communicate off this list, I'll send it you to. Ralph Hoge HAMILTON Kenneth HAMILTON Tom Preston HAMILTON Maxi Lee HAMILTON Lucille HAMILTON Carlis HAMILTON Hollis HAMILTON Peggy HAMILTON Darwin HAMILTON Jenean (sp?) HAMILTON Richard HAMILTON Jewel HAMILTON Unknown HAMILTON My line is through Ralph. He was born on December 19, 1910, and died December 1974. He married Mable Zora BLAYLOCK. To this marriage were 4 children: Caroline HAMILTON, Charles Lee HAMILTON, Clara Evelyn HAMILTON, and Major Thomas HAMILTON. Macky doesn't ring a bell at this point in time. -- Victoria __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Faith Hill - Exclusive Performances, Videos & More http://faith.yahoo.com
