We may be connected in some way. My Hirm G. b-NY 1804-08 Had children William Henry, Moses W., Osbone, Caroline Elizabeth.(Williams) all children born in NJ 1832 through 1843. William had a son Samuel Smith McC 1873 NJ and my grandfather. Wondering if your Samuel could be connected to my Hiram time frame.

Two of their Female children (Caroline Richards nee McCormick and Sister Elizabeth D.

His Son married Eve Dronenberg of Norborne, Carrol County (Eve Dronenbergs Father William was from Frederick Mariland and served in the 15th Cav (Reeves)Confederate as a Blacksmith and Trooper. Eve's Son; my Grandfather "Henry Roy" was a Railroad Fireman in Kansas City until he lost a leg in a train yard collision at or around Kansas City Stockyards. He later owned a Tavern at 6th & Central in KCK until his death c. 1941. My Father Charles E. McCormick was in Army Basic Training at Jefferson Barracks, St Louis Missouri at that time so Roy must have died aroound February-March-April 1941. Dad (Charles E.) died two years ago. According to my Sister Maureen the name on Dad's Birth Certificate is "Joseph". Dad said it was common in those days for Doctors to put their own first name on a babies b! ir! > th certificate. He also had a Brother Rob and a Sister Geraldine Jackson nee McCormick. Both are dead. The Jacksons, my Cousins, live in the area from Olathe Kansas to Ft. Scott Kansas. The information in this paragraph and the next I am 100% certain of, since it is recent family history. > > The remains of most of my Hardin McCormick Family washed away in a flood some years ago.
