I have seen two sources which state that Hymerick Hooker's son Thomas was the one who married Sarah Turnage. Those sources state that Thomas' and Sarah's son was Thomas Hymerick Hooker (b. 1824), who went to Georgia. -----Original Message----- From: Rose Parks <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, April 19, 2000 5:26 PM Subject: Re: [HOOKER] ZV Hooker >If the below William F is son of Hymerick and Elizabeth, then where does >this William belong? >Rose >Greene Co NC Estate Records - 1839 - 1845 - by Bill >Murphy > >p 32 - Wm & Martha Hooker - 21 Sept 1842 - Division of Negroes >Lot 1 - William Hooker >Lot 2 - John M.

They were married and had at least 2 sons before 1792 > mentioned in Elizabeth's father's will and when her mother died in 1807, Hello All! My name is Beau Hooker, and a few weeks back I posted to the list regarding the whereabouts of my grandfather, Zebulon Vance Hooker, of Richmond, Virginia. Thanks to all for their replies - especially Ernie!! Since then, I've done a little sleuthing and turned up his death certificate. Sure enough, ZVH died on December 8th, 1920 of an "embollism of pulmonary vessels". Of interest above is that, listed on his death certificate was his birthplace - simply "North Carolina" and his parents: Hymerich Hooker and Bettie Tyson, of North Carolina. My father's sister (who died in the mid 60's of multiple sclerosis) was named Bettie Tyson Hooker. Zebulon V. Hooker married Josephine Harbaugh - my grandmother. Her sister was named Sallie Harbaugh and is listed on the death certificate as the "informant". Here is what I found out from a cousin, Walter Hooker, who practices law in Richmond today. (Admittedly, this is hearsay) Zebulon Hooker was one of 10 siblings who (according to Walter) are: Oscar Hooker (He owned the James McGraw company of Richmond where ZVH worked as vice president), Seth, Lawrence, Henry, Mary, Rose, Sarah, Louesia and Bettie. Oscar Hooker, (ZVH's brother) still has 2 surviving grand-daughters: Virginia Levering, of Richmond, VA. and Jeane Marie Brownley of Virginia Beach. I spoke on the phone with them both - they were very nice - but had little to no memory of any useful events as their father (Oscar), died when they were babies. (As did my father's father - Zebulon Vance Hooker, when his son - my father - was just 2 months old.) All this is *very* interesting when taking into account that there was, seemingly *another* Zebulon Vance Hooker alive in Florida in 1920. It's been speculated that HE might be my grandfather, but I am holding in my hands as I type this ZVH's death certificate which I just acquired from the Commonwealth of Va. Bureau of Vital Records. Unless he faked his death and moved to Florida, (possible, but not likely) there WERE two ZVH's running around! Incidently, the story goes that in my family, Zebulon Vance Hooker and his brother Oscar were in the distillery business in North Carolina prior to prohibition shutting them down and their subsequent move to Richmond. Hope this helps and sheds some light on the subject. I'd be most interested in anyone's comments, thoughts, speculations and of course, evidence. Many thanks to you all!! Zebulon Vance Hooker, III (Beau)

Beau, I found the following in my Hooker Files. Seth Tyson Hooker 1863-1950 Nannie Hooker1856-1904 Henry Clay Hooker 1870-1910 Sarah Hooker 1880-1900 All are brothers and sisters and buried in Cherry Hill Cemetery In Greenville, North Carolina. They were the children of Thomas Hymerick Hooker 1820-1883 and Delany Elizabeth Harris Hooker of Greene County North Carolina. Maybe this is the Hymerick and Betty you are looking Thomas Hymerick was the son of William F. Hooker 1789-1846 and Sarah Turnage. William F.Hooker 1789 -1846 was the son of Hymerick Hooker, Sr, (died 1814) and Elizabeth Phillips Hymerick Hooker, Sr. was the son of William Hooker III of Dobbs County. Jane G. Phillips

Rose, I believe you are referring to the lst edition of Malcolm Hooker's book. I have been referring to the 1979 revised edition which includes many additions, corrections and revisions. It has 208 pages and is a wonderful source. In the revision, he fully explores the whole matter of the Thomas Hooker who went to Tennessee and concludes he was not the same Thomas Hooker who was the son of Hymerick. Although much of the book deals with the Benjamin Hooker family and descendants, the 1978 and 1979 supplement, which is incorporated into the revised edition, is a great source on the early Hookers in Virginia and North Carolina. Virtually every record from Virginia which deals with William Hooker (d. 1717) and his antecedents is included. Also many early North Carolina deeds relating to William are included. Malcolm examined the whole matter of William (d.1717) and his family. The book, however, does not deal in detail with the descendants of William Hooker, Jr., who d. 1756-57. Also, the information he cited from Brainard Hooker is unreliable.

Another Hooker book is Early families of Wilson Co. TN by Thomas E. Partlow. This is at the Tn State Library and Memphis Shelby Co. Library. TN State Library won't copy this as it is not photocopyable (is this a word?) and Memphis will charge you both arms and a leg as I ask. This is also on Benjamin and Ann Frizelle but has a section pages 53-70 on North Carolina Hooker family. Clayton Library in Houston has this also and a friend copied the pages 53-65 for me. Rose (still not much help on mine)

This book below may be what you are looking for, but it does not seem to have much information on the Hookers earlier than the Benjamin mentioned but does have much on that family. it does mention on page 4 that Brainard Hooker's book says that Thomas Hooker of Smith and Rutherford Co. TN and on to IN was the son of Hymerick Hooker and Sallie Lassiter, but this is not true. I do not know who that Thomas was and Hymerick had a son Thomas but he stayed in Greene Co. NC. also the Thomas Hooker in Greene Co. was the son of Hymerick and Elizabeth Phillips. They were married and had at least 2 sons before 1792 mentioned in Elizabeth's father's will and when her mother died in 1807, Elizabeth was still living and a Thomas also listed as Elizabeth's son. Hymerick and Elizabeth had John , William, Thomas, Nathan and Mary. I doubt that if Sallie Lassiter was a wife of Hymerick (he died in 1816) they had any children, or any who lived past infancy. And if they were married late in life, she may have been married first to someone else as she would be about 40 or so in 1807. Most of the DAR applications I have are for children of Sallie Lassiter and Hymerick. 2 for Thomas and one for Mary and just do not see how it can be, or they wouldn't be listed as Elizabeth's children and heirs. They are for service of Jacob Lassiter and I am not even sure that he did more than furnish corn which is good but the applications have him dying during service and believe this to be another Jacob Lassiter with brother Dempsey who received land in TN as Jacob's heir. Dempsey would not have received the land with the children Jacob had. There are several Jacob Lassiter's in the Rev. War and in NE North Carolina. The below book is also at the The TN State Library. I ordered a few pages copied, but as said before almost all are on Benjamin son of Godfrey and his son Benjamin with wife Ann Frizelle.

I am a descendant of Rev. Thomas Hooker of Smith Co., Tn.,b. 1779 d. 1831. He married Sarah Walker, b. S.C. and d. 1860 in Texas. After Thomas' death in Tenn., Sarah and his children, Charlotte (m. William Kitchings), James Walker Hooker, Samuel Hooker, Thomas Hooker, William H. Hooker, Walker Hooker, Ruth Hooker, and Polly Hooker, moved to Missouri and then to Hunt Co., Texas by the 1840's. I am interested in finding out about Thomas' parents. Is he the Thomas Hooker that everyone has been talking about lately? Thanks for any info. Diann

Gordon, The book is DESCENDANTS AND ANCESTORS OF BENJAMIN AND ANN FRIZELLE HOOKER AND RELATED FAMILIES, by Malcolm D. Hooker, 1976, Appendices, revisions and supplements 1977, 1978 & 1979. (1979 revised edition). I found the book at the North Carolina State Library in Raleigh. I have also seen it in the Texas State Library in Austin. It is also available on microfilm from the LDS main library. Kyle

Kyle, Thanks, again, for sharing information about William, et al. You mentioned a book by the late Malcolm Hooker.

Hi, Now that the Hooker Mail List is so active, I was hoping that some of you out there could give me information on Robert Hooker who was born about about 1815 in Indiana. He married Rachel McGuire 15 Oct. 1838 in Ripley Co., IN. Their childrens names were Lucinda, Dicy, Elizabeth Jane, William Harrison, Odom, Mary, Robert Henry, Martha E., Elijah, Jesse, Millon, Samantha. Mary married William Osborne and on their marriage license it had Robert named as James, so his name is either Robert James Hooker or James Robert Hooker. Does anyone have information on Robert's parents & siblings? I do think the information on William that was recently given us is wonderful, I can only hope that I will be able to document my Robert close to what has been done on William. Again, if anyone out there can find Roberts parents, I would really appreciate it. Linda

Rose, The person we commonly designate as William Hooker, I, who d. in Chowan Precinct, Albemarle Co., North Carolina, in 1717, had two wives. I believe he was b. ca. 1660. The first wife was Bridgett Foy[e], who d. ca. 1692, Virginia. See York Co., VA, Deeds, Orders, Wills, etc., 1691-1694, part 1. I believe that there were 3 children by this marriage; l. Bridgett, b. ca. 1687 2.William, Jr., b. ca. 1689 3.Godphrey, b. ca. 1691 William then married Ann --------, ca 1693. They were listed as husband and wife in 1694 in a Surry Co., VA, Orders, 1691-1713, reel 29, p. 115, and in Surry Co., VA, Deeds, Wills, 1694-1709, Reel 3, pp. 27b, and 28a. I list the following as their children: 4. Ann, b. ca. 1694 5. Margaret, b. ca. 1696 6. Jane, b. ca. 1698 7. Elizabeth, b. ca. 1700 Of course, Ann Hooker is listed as the wife of William in his 1716 will. All 7 of the above children are listed in his will. I am currently investigating the Lassiter connection. Do you believe William Hooker, Jr.,'s wife was a Lassiter? I will be happy to send you a copy of the Percy Hooker chart. Just let me know your mailing address. The Charles Holloman manuscript on Hooker was prepared for Hooker descendant in Mississippi. Let me know if you would like a copy. The late Malcolm Hooker, in his book, came to the conclusion that William Hooker I was married twice, first to Bridgett Foye and second to Ann ------. He recognized that there were some Hooker researchers who believed that William I only had one wife, Ann, who was the mother of all of the children. Malcolm Hooker also came to the conclusion that William Hooker I, was actually the son of an earlier William Hooker who appears in Virginia records in 1657. This earlier William may have been the son of a Thomas and Bridgett Hooker of Virginia. To confuse matters further, Malcolm also pointed out that some believe that the William Hooker of 1657 was indeed the father of William Hooker I who d. 1717, but the earlier William had 2 wives. The first was the mother of William ( d. 1717) and the second was Bridgett Foye, by whom he had no children. Malcolm rejected that version and believed that Bridgett Foye was the first wife of William (d. 1717).

I too am intereseted in the wife of William (died Chowan 1717) I have a deed of about 1715 in which Ann is mentioned but nothing earlier. And have heard of this Bridget Foye/Foyer. Is there a good source for this? Know they had a daughter Bridget. And after looking at the sources in # 3, where can I find a copy of Percy Hooker's manuscript? I am especially interested in what he has on William III in Dobbs and descendants. Charles R. Holloman had a file in the William L. Murphy Collection recently put into Joyner Library, Greenville which helped. (and Hal Jordon helped a lot) In a Lassiter item found recently, it said that Ann Hooker and Jacob Lassiter were first cousins.(Of course it didn't say HOW!) One item said William II wife was Sarah Lassiter, but she would have had to been oldest in family and Jacob youngest in a large family to fit the approx. dates. Any ideas?

Is there anything new on the elusive Henry Hooker who married Elizabeth Helyer/Hilliard in Boston in 1708? Has no one ever found where he came from or who his parents were? Thought I'd check again, incase someone has turned up anything new....I've been looking for 35 years. Carole in Portland, Oregon

Kyle, Thanks for referencing your site. I found it an interesting site to review. My interest is in the first William Hooker, and I'm wondering if you have additional information regarding him, or if any of the citations you referenced contained further information. My wife's line descends from William through his daughter Margaret, who I believe married Isaac Lewis. I do have a copy of William's 1717 will, but I'm hoping there might be more information. I have received from a fellow researcher the suggestion that William's wife may have been Bridget Foyer. Do you, or any others researching this line, have evidence to support or contradict this? In reviewing your notes I saw reference to a type written manuscript in your possession. I assume that manuscript is not in general circulation. If relevant to William Sr., is a copy available? I'd be happy to pay copying and mailing costs.

Gordon - about a year ago I met with a few other Hooker researchers and got the following from Jane Phillips, I do not have the exact source but it shouldn't be that hard to find. " 1691 Bridgett Hooker and Husband, William Hooker, acknowledged to have recieved of David Condon of York County Virginia full satisfaction for 100 acres in New Kent County Virginia given to Bridgett by the will of Hona Elock, widow, and by order of the York court 1674 ordered to Bridgett Foye now Hooker. " Good luck! Hal Jordan

Joseph Henry Hooker m. Sarah Elizabeth "Betty" Ramage in BIBB CO GA on July 28, 1870. Betty's Ramage clan lived in/near the Wriley community in Wilkinson CO GA. Betty was the daughter of Katherine Ramage. This family was part of the family of Josiah Ramage... Katherine may have been a widowed daughter-in-law... I will welcome any info that can be offered...I especially need to know who Betty's father was. and Katherine's, too. Jennifer Sherwood Braswell [email protected]
