I would like to point out, as regards West Virginia Hamricks, the Don Norman file has almost as many errors as facts. I wrote to Norman about it. He wrote back that he doesn't regard himself as a genealogist; he simply compiles names from records. He said he wouldn't verify the accuracy of anything in his work. That is fair enough. But others sometimes pick it up uncritically without knowledge of what they have.

Tell me how you want me to make the corrections.....There are mistakes also in the Peter Hamrick family also....many mistakes there. Please let me know how I can get this corrected....Joan J R McKinney wrote: > Hi, > > I agree with Steve. It is not hard to come up with a large number of > names after eight or more generations.
