Surnames: Hamilton Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/EMB.2ACE/739 Message Board Post: It has recently come to my attention that my grandfather is not my grandfather at all. Instead my mother was born out of wedlock. My "real" grandfather and my grandmother were engaged but never married. My grandfather's name is/was J.C. Hamilton. We are not sure if the JC stands for something or not. He would be in his late 60's or early 70's. My mother was born in 1958. If you have any information about this man or his family please let us know. We really want to put this mystery to rest.

I remember riding the ferry all the time at Cottonwood Point. My cousins lived in Blytheville, twp cousins lived in Ridgely and I lived in Dyersburg. My daddy would take us Tennessee cousins down to get on to the ferry. We'd ride across free because we weren't in a car. My uncle and cousins would be waiting on the other side. Then after I had stayed for a couple of weeks all of us cousins would head back to Cottonwood and ride the ferry back to Tennessee where we'd stay for a couple of weeks. We went back and forth all summer every summer when we were growing up. Ahhhh those were the days. Then when we were teenagers we'd ride back and forth on the ferry with our dates. That was the height of teenage romance!!

When we would return to Cottonwood during the summer I couldn't wait to take a ride on the ferry. His name was Raymond Steele he was born in 1916. His parents were John & Maggie Steele. He worked for Carl Baker in the 30's & 40's. I have found memories of Cottonwood. I haven't been to Cottonwood since about 1980. It's fun reading the message boards.
