Like Linda, I have "northern" Hookers and would be interested if any are on this list. From the 1630s to the later 19th century, My Hooker-connected names are those of Hartford's founding families. Does anyone share these lines?

If I only post to the email list, do those emails show up on the forum board here? Also, it seems that most of the questions and discussion on this forum and the list are for the "Southern" Hookers and not the "Northern" Hookers who settled in VT, CT, NY and then spread out to IL, IN, MI. I am wondering if perhaps there should be two groups...one for each since they seem so separate. I also have Norton, Nash, Preston, Wadsworth, Beardsley,Graves, Gardner, Goss, Carver Gates surnames in my Hooker line. I had listed before that my brother has done the Hooker DNA test and we are close to getting the DNA results for our second cousin who is an 80 year old Hooker. Results are posted at WorldNetFamilies and FamilyTreeDNA.
