I have a short History of Hicksville; hope this helps: http://users.rootsweb.com/~nynassa2/litowns.htm Linda [email protected] Nassau County History Jack Frosty wrote: Can anyone answer this question? Just by-the-bye, I would suppose that someone in this HICKS family must be the person for whom Hicksville NY (in Nassau County) is named. That could provide hints for further "local" research, and also of interest for anyone (like me) interested in visiting locales of ancestors. Alas, I don't think much--if any--of old Hicksville exists any longer _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx ------ List Admin- [email protected] NY GenExchange: http://www.genexchange.org/state.cfm?state=ny US GenExchange: http://www.genexchange.org/us.cfm There are many links on the internet, but the BEST LINK is my link to JESUS CHRIST! --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
