Are you sure it is Capt "Hance" Hamilton? "Hance" is a rather strange name. "Vance" was a name that was around back then. Sharon -----Original Message----- From: nir-down-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:nir-down-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Mike Boyd Sent: December 4, 2007 3:28 PM To: NIR-DOWN@rootsweb.com Subject: [NIR-DOWN] Capt Hance Hamilton of 1729 I am currently looking at the family of Mary Boyd (a most common Boyd name) and a John Irvine of Ireland. They landed at Philadelphia via George and Ann in 1729 and in the the late 1730's went to Hat Creek, then Brunswick Co., now Campbell County, VA. A Boyd researcher has asked me this morning about Capt Hance Hamilton. "It may mean that this Robert's parents came with Capt Hance Hamilton in 1729. It would be very interesting to see if the passenger list, or any other list, is available for these 140 families." [Do the Irvine Reseachers know who was the Ship's Captain for the George and Ann in 1729?] I have him linked to another Boyd family that in the 1760's went to Iredell County, North Carolina. I am not sure where Captain Hamilton left from in Ireland, but seeing the Hamilton's obtained athird of County down from Conn O'Neil in 1607 this may be as good as place to sart to see where the "George and Ann" may have sailed from. In time it would be interesting to see what are the names of the 140 families.

Would a copy be held with the original Lawyer who wrote the Will initially? If so, would the Court REcords helping in finding who what was or is there some other way to find out who the Lawyer may be?
