Hi ya-all! While trying to find my HamBricks in North Carolina, I ran across a site with cemtery listings. At almost every cemetery I found Hamricks. Having nothing else to do....and no life to speak of <gr> I began copying them all down. WELL! I wouldn't have started if I'd known how many there were. Besides being at almost every cemetery, there were almost always GREEN, GREENE and BRIDGEs. There are waaaayyyyyyy too many to attach here, but if anyone is interested, I have listed each cemetery I found, it's url, and how many I found there. I'll email the list to anyone interested. Jane p.s. didn't find a single HamBrick ***sigh****

Dear Jim, Sounds exciting -- Let me know what you found out???

Hamrick list, Sorry to post this to all. I am looking for James HAMRICK of Kent, WA. I have some new cousins for you. Thank you. Mark Cox <[email protected])> Manchester, OH 45144-1030

Hi list, I changed the settings so that after 4 bounces (email that is undelivered) the bouncing address is removed from the subscription list, and that address is unsubscribed from our list. Previously I had it set at 15 bounces and that was creating alot of messages in my inbox that I do not want to deal with, so if your mailbox gets full, the system will automatically unsubscribe you from the list, and you will be sent a message that you have been removed, and you will need to resub if you want back on the list. Please write to me if you need any technical help, I will be glad to help you.

Hello, Little Red. Could you provide some "dates" for the names that you have listed. This would help those of us that have a very large database. Patrick, Benjamin and William are names that are used over and over, so dates are almost a necessity. Are you of "Native American" Decent? Reason for the question is that someone on this rootsweb has a lot of information on HAMRICKS that are of this decent. Hopefully that are listening. Sorry about all the questions, but with them come answers. Harley & Jeanne (Hamrick) Briden Norwalk, CA.

Dear Marcia: I have been intrigued by the Volumes of Joyce Moody's Hamrick book. If you don't mind, I would appreciate the address as I am interested in purchasing the Volumes.

Richard, I can't help you with the info you requested but I do have other info you may not have. My lineage is as follows: Edward Stricklin Hamrick (grandfather) Alfred Harmen Hamrick Addison McLaughlin Hamrick Benjamin Hamrick Jr Benjamin Hamrick Sr Benjamin Hamrick Patrick Hamrick Is there anything I can help you with pertaining to these?

Hi Jane, I purchased Volume 1 of Joyce Moody's Hamrick book. The book is very well done and interesting reading. I did not purchase Volume II as it did not enclude my Hamrick line. It would be an excellent resource if it is yours. Sorry I can't help on your Hamrick questions but did want to comment on the book since you asked. If you wanted to purchase a copy and need the address to order one, let me know and I will forward it to you.

I want to thank everyone who has responded regarding Joyce Moody's book-Steven, Tressie, Marsha, Beverly and Harley..... I was surprised at all the responses I received. This is a very active board!

Hi J R (and Ham(b)ricks all, J R mentioned Joyce Moody's Hamrick books the other day - volumes 1 and 2. I just wondered if anyone else out there has also seen them and what they think of them. I'm still trying to connect my William HAMBRICK --b. 1785, NC, d. 1854, TN, m. Susan Eleanor FORD--to Robert HAMBRICK/Hannah HUBBARD. I'd also like to know if she has documented the relationship of Robert to Patrick HAMRICK.... Anyone? Jane

I have been trying to make more progress on the Hamrick line recently (w/o much success). Have you had any luck? One question that I have for you, and you may have answered this once before, I noticed recently when I was going through some records that Mary (wife of Alfre(or)d) was living with her son John in 1900 at the age of 80. I had checked many years ago for her death certificate in Sangamon Co., without any success. Have you been able to locate her death certificate or where she is buried? Mark

Hello all, Here's a VERY useful URL for finding current and historical features including towns, schools, cemeteries, streams, etc. This is easy to use. Just fill in the query form with as much or as little information as you have and submit. The search is quick and the result provides both a narrative and a map. (For the HCPD folks, you can even find the Horner School!) http://www-nmd.usgs.gov/www/gnis/gnisform.html Happy mapping! --Dick Ross

Hi, this is Dennis in Spfld., Haven't heard from you for a while, hope everyone is fine. We are trying to plan a trip to TN. this spring. I may have some info for you. Let me know. David L. was my 2nd great grandfather. Cousins, Dennis K. Hamrick

Sorry, you are Tonnynana. I don't know who Jill is.

I don't know who you are, but some how I got your message. I am using my dad computer, so you might be writing my dad and this might be a joke, so I'll leave it on here for him. We are Hamrick, but I do not know who you meant this to go to. I thought I would write you back and let you know what happened. Thanks, Christy

Hello Jill, I think the first thing you might do after you hug her, is to let her read your letter to us. It was warmly and honestly written, and I think she'll really appreciate your thoughts concerning her. Tonynana

Cousin Jill, You are so fine. This cousin of your is so lucky to have a cousin like you. You will have a time saying whose turn it is to wash the dishes or who has to sweep the floor. We had a spring at the foot of the hill and even if we are in our 70s we still say, " it's your time to bring water up the hill." Just love your cousin and remember "it could be another 20 years before you have a chance to visit again" Much Love, Harry Jill O'Neall Ching wrote: > Hi ~ > Some of you have come thru for me in the past and I am asking for some > words of wisdom; > advice. > Thirty-five years ago one of my best friends was my first cousin, she and > I visited each other every summer and had wonderful times being kids > together, we caught frogs in the watery ditch (seemed like a pond at the > time to us), we snuck up to the Mall together, we talked about s*x together > for the first time and lots more, we were pals and we loved each other > dearly. > When our late teen years hit we drifted apart and she moved farther away > and we never got together much, and we tried writing letters to keep in > touch but after a few years that dwindled away, it was sad to lose her > friendship.

Jill - I have no wise words of advice; Just wanted to wish you luck!!!! Sarah Let us know how it went!! -- Sarah E. Hambrick [email protected] "There's enough youth, how about a fountain of smart?" - unknown

Jilly! Seems to me you have been getting some good advice. I too think your cousins willingness to visit you would seem to mean she has burned that "old wounded bridge" behind her. NOW! The ball seems to be in your corner. If these things tend to bother you and are best airing to ease the "Old Feelings" it would seem that you might approach the old hurt and get it out of the way - up front. However, if you feel the hurt is long since eased in pain and you want to get on with your relationship, let her bring it up if it is something that she feels needs to be resolved. My feeling is it has become much less important to her as the time has passed and she want's to renew the "old relationship" prior to the miss-understanding. At any rate enjoy your chance to renew that lost relationship, if it is supposed to be it will be. The Irish, you know, are a fighting lot but we also have the capacity for great compassion and resolve.

Hi ~ Some of you have come thru for me in the past and I am asking for some words of wisdom; advice. Thirty-five years ago one of my best friends was my first cousin, she and I visited each other every summer and had wonderful times being kids together, we caught frogs in the watery ditch (seemed like a pond at the time to us), we snuck up to the Mall together, we talked about s*x together for the first time and lots more, we were pals and we loved each other dearly. When our late teen years hit we drifted apart and she moved farther away and we never got together much, and we tried writing letters to keep in touch but after a few years that dwindled away, it was sad to lose her friendship. Once we got into a fight with letters and then we didn't write after that, at least 20 years went by. Two years ago I got in touch with her Mom (83 yrs old) to interview her for my genealogy, since she was the last of my Mother's siblings, and I saw my cousin again and since then we have talked a few times and correspond with email. Well I invited her to come visit, she has been taking care of both her parents and needs a break and I offered to have her come here and she is coming on Friday, and I am so glad and anxious too. We hardly know each other now, we are both 45 years old, she will be here for 2 weeks and well, I wonder how to begin, I don't want to make a big mistake and I want her to feel warm and welcome and also to relax, and I want to interview her and add her children to my tree and so on. I want this to be a gift to her and to myself and I want this to suceed, I think it can, I hope so. Soooooooo.........I am asking for any words of wisdom or advice on healing family ties that you are willing to share with me, or encouragement. I think I feel insecure! Thanks to any who can respond.
