    3. There is a Rockland Cemetery List of abandoned or unused cemeteries called "Lest We Forget". I believe they are doing Ramapo now. For cemeteries currently being used you should contact the owner and usually they will look up a name for you. I have "Lest We Forget" if you would like me to look up something for you. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Don Secor Sent: Friday, October 27, 2006 7:24 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NYROCKLA] Blauvelt/Jersey/McLeod/Husson/Frederick ofRocklandCounty NY Re ur note to Leslie.....please let me know whem U publish the Rockland cemetery list. ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

    3. Leslie, I know who you mean. Since it's a little of an offshoot I'll have to dig up the information, but I do have a Jersey married to a Post that would be an 8th cousin or something so I didn't follow the line too far. I'll do some digging in my files and let you know.

Surnames: Hemmion/Hemion Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/YUB.2ACI/913.939.945.1 Message Board Post: Hello Mary Ann, Here is the only info I have on Jacob, it appears there may be a generatiom miss, or perhaps the immigration date is wrong: COPY OF LETTER DATED 17 FEB 1939 WRITTEN BY NORMAN HEMION TO HIS NEPHEW ROGER HEMION ANCESTRY THE HEMMIONS (OK--You asked for it) "Sometime about 1730, after some severe struggling probably, a family of father, mother, eleven daughters acquired in succession every tenth month, and one son, for which they made all that endeavor to perpetuate the name, left Holland when the boy was 9 days old and he walked ashore when they landed in America 13 months later. (Them were the good old days before aeroplanes started the forty-one hour ferry--they were in England for a number of months awaiting passage to America.) . . . Here traces of the girls fades except the family lines branch out and back like dog tracks on a snowy field. "The son, Yohan (Johann) Hemmion grew up and did his bit to please "Faddy" as his father was affectionately called, by making him grandsire of a son, David, who may probably have moved to Nova Scotia where a colony of the name located, for he seems lost to local legend, and of two brothers named Yon (Jon) and Yon Yokopee (Jon Jakopi) and two daughters, Kate and Katerina in the Dutch dialect or John and John Jacob, and Kate and Katherine in English--Some say John Jacob was the one that went to Nova Scotia and David settled near Passaic, NJ. All I can say is they all likely lived and died not thinking someone would care in 1939. "Johan Hemmion married Mary Osborne . . . and their children were Hannah, married to Thomas Howell; Margaret, married to David Campbell; Mary Jane, married twice among the Fisher and Fox families; and Jacob, seemingly the favorite son (who is held down by a near seven ton monument) . . . and a granddaughter, among many, that became a renowned local actress; . . . and John Osborne, that's the one that concerns us. He was born on May 24, 1819, and married Anne Marie Christie, born January 3, 1819, sometime in 1838. Their children were David Christian; John Jacob, who died at age 21; Betsy Anne who drowned as a child; Hannah Jane, married to John Wanamaker; Maria Louisa, married to Henry Alcott; Margaret Elizabeth, married to Peter Konight, (this is the Aunt Lib who died a year ago--[1938]--mother of Benjamin and Annie who I believe you met). John Osborne Hemmion showed his lazy streak by starting the use of one "m" in writing the name, so it's been Hemion ever since. He wa! s spoken of as Dominy John Hemion to distinguish him from a John D., a John Nelson, Mart's John and John his father. (They're all gone now . . . "As to Dave Chris, he was born February 16, 1840, and married to Malinda Elizabeth Hunt October 15, 1876, just in time to spend their honeymoon at the Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia. Her birthdate was August 3, 1860. Her ancestry, I cannot go further than that her mother was Christina, Andrus's daughter (no surname of her own if what was carved in the chest she brought from Sweden told the story), born in 1825; and her father, he was a dog (Hund) from Germany, born in 1826--he soon switched that name for it's English equivalent HUNT when he started to become a citizen . . . a son died in infancy, and a daughter, Esther Christina Johnson--now 73 and the last of that generation. Her son Clayton has two children. (A family of poor resources somewhat as the sharecroppers in everyday life now were the Hunts) . . .

    2. Hi Mabel, I thought I was writing an answer to the email to the person not the whole web. Anyway Joan Brooks said she thinks that Shirley Ryder had mentione the person. Several from the Genealogical Society have been working on the final proofing of the Mt Rest Cemetery. We want to finish it before the cold weather sets in. I did hear that the winter shouldn't be too bad this year. The Society is just about to publish the cemeteries of Clarkstown & Ramapo and the the Shankey Funeral Home. we have had a good year as far as finishing books. I'm working on the Haverstraw and the Stony Point Cemeteries. Even though I'm retired, been busy cleaning the yard, hadn't done much in the lastr 5 years so there was a lot of growth to get rid of. Then we've been working on the cemeteries and I started to straighten my stuff out doing pretty good with it. When you have the time to sit and think about it it goes much easier. I haven't heard anything from Cheryl Decker wonder if she ever put the paper work in for the SAR? Glad you are taking the day trips etc. Les
