This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: Patriciakk Surnames: KEMP, FITZHUGH, DIGGE Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.kemp/1770.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I've read both your posts and would like to work with you on linking our people. I have both the KEMP surname and FITZHUGH's of Ravenworth's in my gedcom. I also have the DIGGE's family line (who married into both the Fitzhugh's and Kemp's). My KEMP's came from both Massachetts and Virginia and I have come across hints that they eventually migrated to Lousianna and North and South Carolina. If we can find the link between your lines and what I have, we may be able to prove that the southern KEMP's ARE related to those from the Northeast and before that England (which I have covered back to 1200's). Your family line could be the missing link I have been searching for! I have many KEMP's who migrated to Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Utah, California, Arizona, South Dakota and Texas. Do you have ANY hints as to where your George Nicholas FITZHUGH was born? You also mention the SAMUEL's any help there on where they came from? Sometimes tracing back another interconnecting family line can help break down those walls we all encounter. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
