Surnames: Fauble, Hamilton Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/JGB.2ACI/214.1.1.1 Message Board Post: Guy, Even ninety years later, Faubles from Bear Lake remember Bertha Hamilton and her visits to the north country. I have a copy of a picture that includes her, Chester, Margaret and Minnie with the rest of the Faubles, Wares and Coles taken at her brother John's farm in 1913. Also, a have a copy of a picture of her with her father Michael, and brothers Harry, John, and Howard. I descend from Harry's oldest son Arlie. When Michael Fauble died in 1920 the county records listed him as a widower. Bertha and John had to fight the War Department for Carrie, his widow, to receive his Civil War pension. In the process, they wrote some wonderful family history. I've collected information on some 250 Fauble families and descendants. I know that William and Bertha Hamilton had four children, Ivan, Chester, Margaret, and Minnie. Margaret married Jack Bollis, Minnie married Eric Arnold, and Chester married Sylvia ____. They had three children, Richard, Betty, and Arnold. I imagine one of the sons is your father. Maybe you could provide birthdates and places for me. I will send you this collection of Fauble history if you e-mail me at year63@hotmail.com or if you write me at: Duane A. Hunt 731 Packard, Apt 111 Ann Arbor MI 48104 or leave a message on the Fauble message board at ancestry.com.
