Hello, my name is Terry Birch. I am seeking information on Thomas Joseph Harvey born in circa 1880 in Jolie, IL. If any of you have Illinois connections that might tie in I'd sure appreciate the help. I know very little about this man other than he was born in Illinois and somehow ended up in Colorado Springs, CO. abt 1909 where he married my grandmother, Sarah Reese Kintz on June 7, 1909, had a son Thomas William Harvey (my father) July 24, 1909 then divorced Sarah May 31, 1910. Kind of sounds lika a shotgun marriage huh?. If you are wondering why my name is Birch when my father was born a Harvey Sarah was married to a Samuel C. Birch in Colorado Springs July 21, 1911 and my father took the name of Birch as his own. I have the marriage and divorce records from the Colorado Archives if they would be helpful to anyone. Terry Lytle Birch
Mike, you are so right, I have seen some who will just write private. Pat
Folks, just a reminder. It is usually not a good idea to post birth dates of people who are still living to a public group. If you wish you can always give an approximate date. Birth dates are often used for credit purposes, so if the person is still living there is always the potential for abuse. Mike White
Sorry, not Harvey Book List- Harvey Library at Harvey Genealogist.
Tie That Binds is available at Muddy Waters Press, 3445 N. Saline, Wichita, Ks. 216 pp. Soft Cover $25.00 and $4.50 S&H by Marilyn Lake Landreth and Roy Harvey Smith (1996) Listed on Harvey Genealogist Book List. Pat
Pat & Ann you are not alone....... Harvey History and Genealogy located at- http://www.comxnet.com/harvey
It is a good rule of thumb to not include more than 90 lines of info at one time. You can break it up and send several messages. Thanks Pat
Machelle, The misunderstandings are over. We are now ready to get down to work. What family are you working on, and how does it tie into the bigger picture. Pat
The census indexes that you have? Cover all the states? If not which states. Thanks you are really going to be a asset. Thanks so much for all your info, and hopefully you will take a leadership roll. Pat
We have three specific lines so far that have been suggested to be studied. By monday, I will list them, and you may contact those leaders, to volunteer to work on their committees. I will be a place where you can bounce off suggestions and ideas, and will advise, in my capacity as The listowner, as well as a genealogist. I know Ann is quite busy with her research, but I hope she will also be available to advise. I think this is very exciting! Wouldn't it be great if in a year we had totally researched all of those lines that were listed by Ann. I know that's more than we could ever hope for, but I think with all of us working together, to pool all our info, anything is possible. Pat
JoAnn, Thanks for writing, and visiting, The Harvey Genealogist. I'm always happy to hear from a new Harvey Researcher. No, as I mentioned in my post to Pat, I never tried to PROMOTE THG on the list. I didn't feel it was necessary, when the site is so widely linked to on the net. The Harvey Surname Association is not a off-shoot of the Guild for One-Name Studies in London. As far as I know, the Guild does not actually sponser associations, although their Members most certainly are involved in the Family Organizations associated with their particulair One-Name study. I am a member of the Association of One-Named Studies. This is the North American Equivelent (albeit, without the venerable history of England's Guild).

Dear Harvey List: Let's all shake hands. A lot has been flying around on and off this list for the past 24 hours, but through adversity comes change. I don't want people having to choose between the List and The Harvey Genealogist. That's so counterproductive! We're all here for the SAME reasons, and I apologize if I said or did anything to make you think it's a "her or me" situation. Here is the scoop: We'll form the "committees" or "teams". We'll talk about the teams and their data on the List. That is the Lists Function - To Discuss. We'll post the team data in The Harvey Genealogist. That is The Harvey Genealogist's Function - to Archive. So.....let's shake, and get back to looking for our HARVEYS, ok? -- Ann Harvey Lahtinen, Steward <[email protected]> The Harvey Genealogist The Harvey Surname Association http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/6575/
Pat and all I seem to figure out the problem here. I have been using Ann's page for a long time, eventhough I have yet to connect my Harveys with those listed there, however, it is my intent to provide my line to her, since I see that as a central repository for all Harveys. I cannot see any problem on folks working separately from there, since we all seem to be trying to collect Harvey data. Seems to be some petty priorities on someones part. Let all work together and build the Harvey lines, once we get there, lets hope we have a place like Ann's to store and centralize the info.

Pat, Thanks for writing. Here are the answers to the questions which you sent me last night: You Wrote> Do you have all the lines that are being researched on this list, on your page? Response: ALL the lines? Never. Nice thought, though. In THG, in the index under Generations http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/6575/famtrees.htm there are about 10 major lines traced, including William Harvey's Taunton Mass Harveys, Richard Harvey's Silas Harvey, Rev. Thomas Harvey in Tennessee, Thomas the Blacksmith of Virginia, Thomas of Butterwood Creek in Virginia, "Ancestry of Col. John Harvey of Northwood, New Hampshire", The Harvey line of William & Thomas Harvey of Somersetshire England, the line in "The Harvey Book" by Oscar Jewell Harvey, among others. There are also some smaller bits of lineages, contributed by readers. I do recommend that researchers upload their lineages to indexs like Gendex or Geneanet, because the Ged2HTML files take up a great deal of disk space, and I only have 5 gigs in the THG office to store all this genealogy, and only 18 mgs online. For a while there was a large amount of overlap (people submitting trees that were for the same lineages), but I tried to "match" them with the other researchers working the same lines...like the Thomas of Butterwood group, the Taunton Mass group, the MS to TX group, the Ohio Quaker group, the TN Onisiphorous Group and my own Kentucky Harvey group. Since practically ALL of these groups are represented, at least in small way, in printed genealogies ("The Harvey Book" (Harvey) for the New England bunch, "The Tie That Binds" (Landreth/Smith) for the PA, NC, OH, KS and OK bunch, including Quaker lines, and the "Harvey Connection" (Dawson) for all those Onisiphorouses, it only remains then to sort out the little "twigs" and figure out the Branch, and Tree, to which they fit. I am currently putting together a lot of information about Harveys in Mississipi, Missouri, and points southwest, like Louisiana. These are spots were Harveys commonly pioneered, and did quite well, but we don't have a lot of published data on. ____________________________________________________________________________________ You Wrote> Also can you tell me how long you've had the page up? Response: The Harvey Genealogist was orginially a Hardcopy printed Newsletter which I (http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/6575/whoami.htm) started in 1993 for a small group of 17 Harvey Researchers with whom I had maintained written correspondence over a period of years. Slowly the mailing list became longer and it became more imperative to find an alternate method for getting the information out to my fellow researchers, so that they were not duplicating the research. THG went online in October of 1994 at the URL of http://pages.prodigy.com/YKYF94A/ . We moved to Geocities in February of 1996, when we outgrew the Prodigy website. At that time I had a group of about 250 Harvey Researchers, all but perhaps 20 who were online. Out of the 20 NOT online, 12 were in Austrailia, 4 are in South Africa, 1 is in Jamaica, 1 in Germany, and 1 in Scotland. There was a lot of researchers asking for a family organization, so we put together The Harvey Surname Association. While most of the 50 Harvey Researchers in The Harvey Surname Association are American, we do have 3 Canadians, and two Brits. _______________________________________________________________________________________ You wrote> and who started the list in the first place. and did you do it together? Response: The Harvey Discussion List, which you are now "owner" of, was began by Ruth Davison to the best of my knowledge, and I had nothing to do with it's creation. As far as I know, the list came into being about a year ago, and I joined at that time (and placed information for joining it on the HARVEYS ON THE WEB page in THG at http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/6575/links.htm ) Ruth contributed current Harvey Obits to THG. They can be viewed at http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/6575/newobits.htm, which is one of several Harvey obituary pages listed in the THG Records Vault at http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/6575/records.htm ______________________________________________ I refrained from mention of The Harvey Genealogist on the list, other than in my sig file, as I was under the impression that most people who found the Discussion list would have found THG. When you go to YAHOO! and search for HARVEY, THG is the only listing under Yahoo! Site Matches Arts: Humanities: History: Genealogy: Lineages and Surnames Harvey - monthly newsletter about the Harvey surname. The site is also listed on the Surname Web as their Harvey Surname Resource Center, in Cyndi's List, and there are references found in the Newsgroups, all the search engines, and the other surname directories. I am also the registered Harvey (Harvie, Hervey & varient spellings) researcher with the Association of One-Name Studies, and am listed as such at their website. I have applied for the same with the Guild of One-Named Studies in London. I guess with all this, and the "word of mouth", I would be extremely surprised if you have 150 people on your list that hadn't heard of, and used, The Harvey Genealogist. But thank you for listing it in your Tag Line, and I will be happy to stick a "commercial" in every now and again on the Discussion list, both for THG and THSA, with your permission. _________________________________________________________________________________ You Wrote> Could you relay what the membership for the Harvey Association is. I permit that, and what it entails. Response: Membership in The Harvey Surname Association, as outlined in the Charter currently being radified is, in part, : "The main objective of The Harvey Surname Association (THSA) is the promotion of Harvey (Harvy, Harvye, Harvie, Hervey) Genealogical Research on an international level, and to catalog all references of the Harvey Surname, Worldwide, and provide this information to its members." "Each member is encouraged to participate in the gathering of this information, and the development of the programs in which the information will be presented. " "Interested persons will be invited to become members of THSA. Individuals will become a member after application, and the only requirements being descendence from a Harvey line, or the legal marriage to a Harvey descendent. " The remainder of the charter can be viewed at http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/6575/charter.htm where interested parties can review the organizational structure of the Association. Membership is $12.00 annually, pro-rated from May through the following April. Dues cover the printing & mailing of THG for those members not online, printing & mailing of membership packages (which include welcome letter, organizational materials & brochure, heat transfer of Harvey Coat of Arms, & membership card), webpage support for the Association Website, as well as The Harvey Genealogist, including GeoPlus, and, finally, advertising costs for 3 (printed)genealogical Publications and 2 online directories. To apply for membership, one simply has to send an email to me (currently) at [email protected], giving their name, address, telephone & Harvey relationship, then send check to The Harvey Surname Assoc. P.O. Box 307, Watertown, Minnesota 55388. Membership packages are sent out once a month. Charter Memberships were available the first 6 months, but upon radification of the Charter, this option will no longer be available. Additional activities of The Harvey Surname Association include publication of The Harvey Genealogist in Hardcopy, as the affiliated Newsletter, and the creation of the first International Harvey ReUnion in 1999. Harvey Family Research Centers were among several of the Special Interest activities proposed. These would be, from reading about your "Committees", the same sort of program...formal teaming of researchers working on the same lines. I have been "match-making" for years, and thought that a virtual research center made sense. This suggestion, made by one of the List members, who is also a THSA member, makes sense: "I realize the RootsWeb search engine will trace out specific threads on specific indvs. and groups but it would not serve as well to tie-in everything compiled to-date. Perhaps a link to a specific family location on your site could be included by the researcher(s) when the monthly update is given to the HARVEY-L list? Hopefully, if YOU control where the info goes on a planned basis and only have to deal with monthly summarized results, you would not be engulfed by too much additional work. I am continually astonished by the amount of effort you are able to put into your great site. You sure have my admiration and respect!" I am quite willing to establish Harvey Family Research Centers in the Harvey Genealogist as outlined above. Perhaps I should start with the five big Geographical groups as mentioned above? Or, other than Bill Harvey and his Taunton Mass Harveys, what "committees" have been formed? Seems to me that Richard Harvey over in PA would want a team of his own, outlining his Silas Harvey Lineage. And then there's those Virginia folks....Thomas of Butterwood, and Thomas the Blacksmith, and, yes, all the Blassingame Harvey (Hervey) folks (they were all the talk back in 1994 on the internet bullitin boards-that's when those wills you mentioned earlier first hit the Net - they are listed also in the Harvey Records page, under Probate Records). Let me know what sort of "turn out" you get, and how they want to organize/archive the information (geographically or what?).
