    1. [HAMRICK-L] Street Hamrick homeplace

    3. Good morning; While traipsing around the Internet, I came across this item on a Cleveland County, NC site. Perhaps it has already been seen and put aside by most Hamrick researchers, but I have a question about it. The Cameron Street Hamrick Home Place By Dennis Morgan There are five graves in a little wrought iron encased graveyard on the grounds. The old log cabin was built in 1785 by James Irvin and still stands today. It is in remarkable good shape. If you have a reason to want to know the location e-mail me and I will try to put you in touch with the owner. I choose not to disclose the location here because I’m afraid of vandalism. The inscription on the marker in front of the cabin reads: Home Place Of Cameron Street Hamrick 1822-1900 and his wife Elmira Bridges 1822-1897 Graves: Robbison, Isaac No dates just a notation that he served in the Revolutionary War. Hamrick, Price Jan 1765 Oct 1820 Son of Moses Richard and Father of Moses Hamrick, Nancy 1768-1830 Hamrick, Moses Dec 14,1790 Aug 10,1868 son of Price, father of Street Hamrick, Sarah Robbinson Jun 10,1802 Dec 10, 1850 My main question/comment regards the part of the inscription on the Price Hamrick grave marker which says "Son of Moses Richard". How can the theory, that holds Moses Richard Hamrick to be but a creation of our cousin S. C. Jones, be reconciled with the words on this grave site? Bill Davenport
