Just wondering if anyone with these surames would contact me in order to exchange information. Maybe off-list would be best so as not to take up time of those not connected.

Hello Joanne Galvin, I am a cousin of Phill McCall a few years back he lead me to my Hummerich family truck that crossed the Atlantic Ocean in 1856. My name is Russell Hummerick. I can give him a call tomorrow and see if he would like to share information with you. He has no internet as far as I know. But I can find out for you. I have information on the Northup, McCall, Phelps, and Blake that he sent me back then. I can see if he has updated any of it sence then. If not and it is okay with him I will be happy to copy what I have and mail the information to you.

Well, if they are not connected to the Campbells in my family tree , I have no idea......but Lawrence County is right next to Clay Township, Gallia County, where my family comes from....

Denise, What part of the county was your Prose's? Somewhere I have some information on some Prose's that my mother-in-law did for her sister that was married into the Prose family.

I would be willing to bet money that your Norman Campbell is related to the Campbell's in my family tree.

Other Gallia List members: I had the same questions about the Society due to the address and phone number change at the bottom of our list. I phoned the number and reached a private residence, Ms. Ann Brown. The following day I received a direct e-mail from Henrietta Evans instructing me to leave a message on the machine (?) and Ann Brown would answer my questions.

Mrs. Evans has done private work for people over the years, I just thought that they had started up a company, the Inc. at the end, to do private research. I, like many of you, live out of Ohio now.
