I would too. Now I don't think my information is set in stone by any means. Most of it came from census info but some from my aunt going door to door in Morgan County. If I haven't shared it with you, please let me know. Here is the interesting part, even if we don't find a Ramey connection, some of the Rameys were in the same area as the Hamiltons and Hills. As I work on the Browns and the Van Hoose/Bryans I find a little more about the others. I'll share everything when I'm done but right now Washington Co Va, Farquier Co Va, Scott Co Va, old Frederick Co Va, Bedford Co Va, Russell Co Va and the surrounding areas (that almost covers VA doesn't it? <G>) are where I'm looking at right now. -----Original Message----- From: Claudia Hamilton Meyer <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Monday, April 19, 1999 7:08 AM Subject: RAMEY - HAMILTON >Seeing Laura's question about RAMEY reminded me to ask if anyone researching >RAMEY has run across a HAMILTON connection?
