Here, my stuff again Candy Hill Cemetery, near Myrtle, Ms, in Union Co(originally part of Tippah) has my GGgrandfather buried alone: James Mat HAMRIC, 1816-1903. Nearby lies my Ggrandmother, Nancy A. HAMRIC b. May 1, 1850 d. Apr 29 1918 with her husband, my Ggrandfather, Cary Willis HENRY, 1846-1942. Also nearby are the nephew of James Mat------ James Madison HAMRIC, 1861-1948 and his wife, Mildred Elvira MOORE, 1861-1942. Children of JMH/MEM were John 1885, Sara 1887, Matye 1888, Mamye 1890, Dewitt 1895, Ruth 1906. I have an article by Ruth which says her grandfather was John Head HAMRIC, 1831-1862, buried at Okolona, Ms, (Co C 20 Ark., Inf, USA--she writes, but he is listed with the same unit in the "Index to Arkansas Confederate Soldiers"--someday will have to check out that cemetary myself). Anyway, Ruth says her father lived in Ark until age 16 when he moved in with his uncle in Ms. Thanks to Tressie, census shows them in Ms as HAMBRICK and in Ark as HAMRICK: 1850 Tippah, Ms--John 51 VA, Rebecca 48 SC, John H 20 SC, Rebecca 19 SC Catharine 16 AL 1850 Tippah--James M 27 SC, Mary 26 SC, Mary L 8 AL, Sarah E 5 AL Nancy E 3 AL, Josaphine 1 MS 1860 Hempstead Co, Ark--John 61 VA, Catharine 24 AL 1860 Hempstead--John H 30 SC, Elizabeth 27 TN, Amanda 7 MS, William 4 AR, Mariah 1 AR 1830 Anderson Co, SC-- John HAMBRICK, age 30-40, with 3 males under 10, one female 30-40, and 2 females under 5 enough for now, can add deed info if interested Winston Bradley Birmingham, AL

Meshack had a guardian appointed, can't remember the year but in GA. Micajah Stinson was the guardian and could be a step-father for all I know. Both Meshack and Micajah are on the 1820 of Conecuh Co AL. Some of his descendant also went to Texas. Tressie in OKC

Good luck with your search for Meshach, I wish I could help you. Where is the earliest record you find him? Please let the list know what you find about him, ok? thanks, Jill ---------- : From: DSand39689 <[email protected]> : To: [email protected] : Subject: [HAMRICK-L] Re: HAMRICK-D Digest V98 #62 : Date: Friday, May 15, 1998 4:24 AM : : I'm in hopes that someone can help me identify my Hambrick line.

Hi David - I read your note and the only thing that comes to mind is your JOHN HAMBRICK whose widow Louisa Matilda was living in Lowndes Co. in the 1830's. I found..just this week...all that Hambrick history on this site: www.cmpu.net/public/jmckinny Probaby you have seen this too. In my research, I found my PETER HAMBRICK b. 1781 which is as far back as I had been able to trace. On this site I see that PETER was the son of CHARLES and MARY FLORENCE "HAMRICK". It then shows that PETER had a son JOHN b. 1809. I was missing that generation! I had found PETER living with a JOHN HAMBRICK on census record (*see my notes below), but this John was b. 1835 and I thought Peter was too old to have a son born then and it had to be a grandson...so then I didn't know who this John's father was. Never could find him. Now I know his father was a JOHN also. Here is our line---but remember JOHN b. 1809 is missing from here: Descendants of Peter Hambrick 1 Peter Hambrick b: ABT 1781 in VA d: ABT 1871 in MS . +Elizabeth (Unknown) b: ABT 1776 in VA d: Bef. 1860 in MS .... 2 John (Jack) Hambrick b: 1835 in AL ? d: in TX ? ........ +Nancy J.

Hambrick b: 1875 in MS ............... +James Barrington ........... 3 William Hambrick b: 1869 These are all my notes: On the 1870 Census Record for Choctaw County, Bankston, Mississippi, there is: John Hambrick age 22, Farmer, born in Miss., could not read or write Nancy, wife, age 19, keeping house, born in Miss., could read but not write William, son, age 1 year, born in Miss. about 1869. Peter Hambrick, age 89, born in VA abt 1781, (must have been the grandfather of John Hambrick living there). The above-William Hambrick, age 1, must then be the older brother of James Little Hambrick. (JLH was born 10/5/1872). William may have died in infancy because he does not show up on any other Census records I could find. Also listed living next to the above family on 1870 Census are: L. Hambrick, female, age 50, keeping house, born in GA, could not read or write Lericy J., (sp.?) female age 23, born in Miss., could not write Mary, age 20, born in Miss., could not write Martha (?), age 15, born in Miss., could not write On 1860 CENSUS Choctaw Co., Bankston, MS, were: Lucinda Hambrick, female, age 43(?) householder ?, real estate valued $960, b. in GA Sarah A., age 18, spinster, b. Mississippi Lavicy (?sp) age 16, spinster, b. MS John, age 13 b. MS Mary, age 10 b. MS Martha, age 5 b. MS and Peter Hambrick, age 78, farmer b. VA NOTE: Ages of the above family members are questionable on the 1870 Census. According to the 1910 Census Record, John Hambrick (22) was born in Alabama and not Hamburg, Germany (Hamburg is what my husband's mother always heard). According to the Census Record of 1870, Choctaw County, Bankston P.O., Miss., this man's grandfather was Peter Hambrick, born in VA and not born in Germany. The family says they were from Hamburg, so originally they could have come from Hamburg, Germany, probably early 1700's. Since the above-Peter Hambrick was 89 years old and appears to be too old to be the father of John (Jack) Hambrick, we are missing his son's name. This son would be John (Jack) Hambrick's father and James Little Hambrick's grandfather. Need to find the missing name. This person would also "appear" to be the husband of the above Lucinda Hambrick, female age 50, on 1860 & 1870 Census. ******End of my notes****** I do not know where this earlier family lived. They could have lived in GA, then moved on to Mississippi which is where I found them. I don't know if you can fit your family in with my group or not....see what you can do and let me know what you think. I printed out all the HAMRICK line down through PETER from that web site but haven't had time to really study it yet. I never knew PETER had all those siblings etc. But as you will see from the descendant chart on that web site that there is nothing about Peter's son JOHN b. 1809....no other info beyond that generation. I did e-mail the J. McKinney listed on the address and gave him all of my Hambrick's to add....haven't heard from him yet. Sure hope we can make a connection here.....I haven't really be working on this for a while so am a bit "rusty". Hope I answered your questions. Looking forward to hearing from you real soon. Thanks for your info and e-mail. (I use Family Treemaker) Jane Slaughter I was going through some of my notes and ran across this info. I don't know if it will be of use to you or not. >From Confederate Pension Rolls: HAMBRICK, Laura J. Tagewell County, VA, Act of 1916, Roll 147, page 375. Memo 10/19/17 $33. I don't know where I found this....been too long.

I'm in hopes that someone can help me identify my Hambrick line. I've had very little success but it may fit nicely in with the established line that has been so widely discussed lately. Here it is in a nutshell: Meshach Hambrick was born circa 1794 in Georgia and married Rebecca Kelly in Jasper County, Georgia on May 20, 1813. He had served in the War of 1812 in the Georgia Volunteers (Militia) in Capt. John Wilson's Company which was formed in Jasper County. Rebecca Kelly was born circa 1796 in Georgia, probably the daughter of Tyre Kelly who later moved to Lowndes County, Alabama. By at least 1837 Meshach Hambrick and his family were in Lowndes County Alabama. He lived in an area that later became Crenshaw County which was formed from Lowndes. Both Meshach and Rebecca were still living as late as 1871 although I do not know precisely when either died. They had several children. Some of these children moved to Arkansas and some remained in Alabama. I feel that Meshach had a brother named John Hambrick whose widow Louisa Matilda was living in Lowndes County in the 1830's. I also feel that Meshach had a brother and/or father named Harrison Hambrick who was in Jasper County Georgia in the 1820's. Does this fit in with anyone's research? I certainly hope so! Will be glad to exchange information. Many thanks. David Sanders

Thanks to Rootsweb we now have a complete set of this lists archived messages! Yipee! Just go to this site and follow the directions and you can recall ANY message sent since rootsweb became our host server. http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl The Rootsweb honchos are making another request for donations for paying for this server, if anyone has an extra $10 laying around, it can be used toward paying for this server in the name of Hamrick research it would be much appreciated, if you do make a donation make sure it is for Hamrick tho, so they know where to attribute the dollars! There is NO obligation to do so, just a big thank you. Thanks!

To all, For those of you who have read my version of the Third generation posted over the weekend, I must admit, thanks to Tressie Nealy, that I copied the wrong data (must have been asleep). The Samuel Hamrick (the younger one) who is shown as a son of Patrick Jr is wrong... he was actually born circa 1766, and appears to be the son of Benjamin Hamrick Sr which should make Jill feel better. This is a good example why it is good to have a second set of eyes check things out. Steven A. Bridges [email protected]

When I am gone there will be a temporary list administrator to take care of the important list maintainance. I will be gone July 8-Aug 8 or longer. I have a limited amount of research time in Salt Lake City, but I would like to help listmembers if I can by attempting a few lookups for you. If you have a burning desire and would like me to try to look up something for you in SLC, please send me a message with a subject line that reads only: " Jill: Lookup SLC" and then give me a one name specific request of something you are trying to locate, a name, date, place, whatever. GIVE me as much information as you possibly can for me to be successful and I will give it my best look. Do NOT say, I want everything on _____________ in Pennsylvania, I won't be able to do that. Do say, looking for death certificate of ______________ who died in Roanoak, VA in Sept. 1910.......this is a cando type of request. You must follow this criteria or your request will not make it into my lookup folder. I am sure you understand. So send your requests, send me you additions/corrections to my websites and database and send me your wishes for a safe/successful journey.

Hamrick's, Enclosed is the data I have on Thomas Hamrick. If anyone has any data or any additions or corrections, please send them. I hope others will send their data also. I would like to find someone with a file of WV Hamrick's that would let me use their GEDCOM. I have all my WV data in a old program that does not make a GEDCOM so I will need to enter them each individually otherwise.

Hamricks, I have a Hamrick Genealogy Page so that Hamrick descendants may be able to trace their own family back to ancestors they never knew they had. Enclosed is a response I received. J R To: J. McKinney Sir: I was given this letter, because of its genalogical interest, after a recent death in the family. I found Thomas Hamrick's (1810-1881)first family on your website and thought you might find a letter about his second family to be of interest. P.

Mittie was a Civil War baby, born in 1861. Captain John Hamrick was born somewhere in Georgia in 1785. He was married to Katie Hampton in 1808. General Wade Hampton, of Civil War fame was a close relative. John Hamrick was also a military man and lived in Mille(d)geville, Georgia. Our grandfather, Thomas Hamrick, was born there in 1810. There was a large family of children: Martha, who married William Brown. Emiline, who married Willis Hamrick, who was a captain in the Civil War and also a cousin. Catherine, who also married a Hamrick. Elmira, who married Lawson Gunn. John, who settled near Waynesboro, Miss. James, who lived a number of years in Isney, Alabama; some of whose descendants moved to Mobile, Alabama and became prosperous merchants and some to Meridian Miss. Burrell, who was a lieutenant in the Civil War, after the close of the war, settled in Newton County, Miss., a few miles south of Hickory where his descendants still live. And two boys who became merchants in Houston Texas. Captain John Hamrick brought a company of men to Alabama to help fight the Creek and Seminole War. He joined the forces of General Andrew Jackson. After putting down the uprising, they drove the Indians into Florida. They then marched overland to Tennessee, cutting a road through the wilderness as they went, which is now known as the "Jackson Trail". He then returned to Georgia. In 1820 he emigrated to Alabama with his large family, bought a large tract of land and owned a large number of slaves. He lived there until his children were nearly grown. Because the river bottoms were so unhealthy he moved farther west to Mississippi where he lived until his death. His widow lived to be almost one hundred years old, whose mind was fairly normal until her death. In 1820, our grandfather, Thomas Hamrick, (OUR refers to Mittie Ethridge and myself) who was ten years old at this time, came with his father to Alabama (and lived there) until grown and married Sinia Brown. He then moved to Lauderdale County, Miss. and settled on the east side of Oktibbeha (Okatibbee) creek at what is now known as the Bozeman place. He inherited a number of slaves and owned a rather large plantation. Grandmother died after mothering six children, namely: Elmira, John, Margaret, Thomas, Joseph, and James. The last named is the writer's father. In the winter of 1846 he married Sibia Phillips. She was born in Maringo County, Alabama in 1817. To that union was born five more children as follows: Molly, Virgil, Alice, Nellie, and Burrell. The last two named died in their childhood. Soon after this marriage, grandfather sold his plantation and moved about twelve miles to the north-west and bought 640 acres of land at what is now Collinsville. The house was a large two story house built on a low hill where a view of almost the entire plantation could be seen. The slave quarters were placed a short distance in the back and was well kept. The main wagon road from Marion to Decatur passed directly in front of the house. These two towns were the main markets then for that area. The home entertained many a weary traveler at night that went that way. Signs of the old house are still visible. The Hamrick cemetery is located about one fourth mile to the east of the house. Grandfather, grandmother, Margaret and many other members of the family are buried there. This writer, with two of his nephews, put a granite headstone marker at the graves of grandfather and grandmother. This writer remembers when Aunt Margaret was buried. I was about four years old. We spent the night at uncle Virgil and aunt Emily who lived about one fourth of a mile north-west of the old home. Their two oldest children, Bee and Essie were born there and possibly some of the others. Grandfather was considered a successful farmer but the Civil War took away four of his sons and a son-in-law. Their names follow; John, Thomas, Joseph, James and Umphrey Wells, the husband of Margaret. John and James are the only ones that returned. Umphrey Wells was killed at the battle of Shiloh near Memphis, Tennessee in 1863, Thomas was killed at Chancellorsville, Virginia and Joseph was killed in the seven days fight around Richmond. They all lie on the battlefields where they fell so far as this writer knows. Thomas was killed with a minnie ball in the forehead charging a cannon battery. I do not know the details of the deaths of the others. Soon after the war started, grandfather had a stroke of paralysis that made him an invalid but he lived until October 30, 1881 when he died with colitis. Grandmother lived until September 22, 1887. This completes the story given by Mrs. J. M. Ethridge. The following is a brief rundown on some members of the family. I would suggest that any member of the family who is in possession of this add whatever knowledge they have to it, and particularly of their immediate family. In Grandfather's [first] family, Elmira, the oldest child, married Joseph Houston. A large family of children was born to them of which only two are now living at this writing. The oldest son, who they named Thomas, grew up, studied medicine, graduated in it and was a successful physician in Meridian, Miss. until he was past 80 years old. His Son, Mark [son of](Doctor Tom) is a successful dentist at Purvis, Miss. John married Amanda Harwell and they also reared a large family. Only one of the children, or possibly two are living. There is a host of grandchildren. James, was the youngest of the first set of children, married Clementine Williamson. He bought a home some four miles north-west of Collinsville where he lived with my mother for some 56 years before he died. Elmira and family and John and family both settled near Collinsville and lived there a long and honorable life. [Now] to the writers father and mother, who were known as "Jim and Tiny" (mother was small in stature, never weighing a hundred pounds) reared eight children as follows: Minnie, Thomas, John, Benjamin, Clementine, Ollie, William, and Maude. Clementine, John, Ollie and Benjamin all died, in that order, from May to October 1900 of typhoid fever. Clementine was 21 years old, John 25, Benjamin 23 and Ollie 17. Ben had taught school for several years. He was a cripple from early childhood but went well on crutches. John was married to Phrenettie Davivson, and left two boys too young to remember him. Mark, the oldest, is a businessman in Cleveland, Miss. and Dee is a successful medical doctor, head specialist, at Corinth Miss. Minnie, the oldest child, married John Beeman at the age of sixteen and was the mother of ten children, nine of which are still living. Thomas married Sallie Hand, to which three boys were born. Sallie died in 1903 and Thomas in 1907. Thomas at 32 was a successful young medical doctor. A grandson of his, Thomas, has just completed two years of medical study in the University of Tennessee, his Grandfather's Alma Mater and is on his way to taking the place of his grandfather. William Lee married Mittie Strange. To this union was born one child, a son who is a successful realtor in Hattiesburg Miss. He has one son who is at this writing a sophomore in college. The son is named James William and the grandson is James William Jr. William Lee himself, began the study for the ministry in the Methodist church at the age of eighteen. His training mostly was in the Meridian Male College and Westminster College, Tehuacana, Texas. He holds only one degree, that of Batchelor of Philosophy but has considerable study in the seminary and forty years in pastoral ministry. Commissioned by the Mississippi Annual Conference in 1953 to write a history of Methodism in Mississippi, which job was completed early in 1956 and is now in the hands of the printer to be off the press this Fall. He retired in June 1954 at the age of 68 and now lives at his home, 800 Mamie St., Hattiesburg, Miss. Maude, the last child, married Gillroy Strange, a brother to the writer's wife. They have six children. Celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary, January 1956. They live at 2410, 11th St., Meridian, Miss. Molly Hamrick, [oldest child of the second family] married George Rainer, who was a Baptist minister, and lived a long life in Smith County. Several children, some of whom still live in Raleigh, the county s[eat]. Alice, the other girl who lived to be an adult, remained single untill she was past fifty years old and then married well. They seemed to have a happy home. Her husband died after about six years. She lived several years but has long since passed on. Virgil, the only surviving boy of the second set of children, married Emily Strange, an Aunt of the writer's wife. They reared a large family of children, most if not all live in Texas. The writer has occasionally contacts with Essie, the eldest daughter, who married a Crow who has been dead some three years. They have several children. Essie lives by herself in Waco Texas and owns a nice business. Ruth married a Wilcox. They have a nice business and live in Dallas, Texas. Wendell, who is one of the three boys and the only one of the three living, is a successful surgeon in the city of Houston, Texas. There are several others of the children, some member of the family will have to give a run down on them. This will conclude this present write up but the writer hopes sometime to write a fuller sketch with more detail. William Lee Hamrick 800 Mamie St. Hattiesburg, Miss.

Since we all had so much fun with the first two generations of the Patrick Hamrick family, and since no one has stepped up to post the third generation, here is my version. We obviously did not hear from a great many sideliners who have an opinion on the HAMRICK lineage, but did not speak out one way or another... perhaps this generation will find a lot more discussion.... For those who will ask, yes I have documentation, and/or reasoning of some sort, to support my version of the third generation, and no, I have no intention of posting it because it would take forever. Perhaps when I have lots of surplus time, I will put it all in a book and you can all buy a copy for $50, or so, and have some factual data to draw your own conclusions from.... The following rules must be agreed to prior to reading the thrid generations of the HAMRICK Family: 1. All arrows and sharp objects that you might want to throw must be aimed to the far left.. 2. All rocks and other blunt objects that you might want to throw must be aimed to the far right.. 3. Any soft or fluffy objects, such as feathers, pillows or dollr bills, you might want to throw can be aimed down the middle... If you are reading beyond this point, then you have, by default action, accepted the above rules.. Here goes... THIRD GENERATION OF PATRICK HAMRICK (SENIOR) FAMILY: Children of Patrick HAMRICK (Junior) 1. Benjamin Hamrick (b: 1739) 2. Patrick Hamrick 3rd (b: 1740) married Sarah FOSTER 3. unknown 4. unknown 5.

Hello Lori, I'm writing because I saw the name SAPP listed under your name on the Bureau Cty. Illinois webpage. My GGGrandfather, Christopher H. HAMRICK married Susan E. SAPP on 28 Jan 1870, in Bureau Cty. I wonder if we have a connection - would love to hear from you. [email protected] (Cheryl)

I am looking for information on Elmer George Hamrick 1912-1982 or his sister Myrtle Hamrick who I think married Tom Hawthorne and lived in Southern California. Any information would be great.
