Let's try a reality check... Mary HAMRICK was born August 1, 1787 in Greenbrier County, VA... Joseph W. HAMRICK, who married Frances COGAR, was born in 1799 in Greenbrier county, VA... now, how logical does it appear to be that Joseph was Mary's father? No offense, but a lot of time is wasted correcting wrong information. It would help everyone if people would be more careful when expounding information they are not sure about. That includes me. Due to personal problems, I will be dropping out of this mailing list and HAMRICK research for a while. Good luck to all Hamrick researchers. Steven A.
