Posted on: Cherokee Co. SC Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/SC/Cherokee/10125 Surname: Hammett ------------------------- Thank you Johnny for that information. I am back to William W. Hammett (b. 1799) who married Martha "Patsy" Lnu. Not sure if they were born in VA or Spartanburg (Cherokee Co.). They raised their children in Spartanburg. Children were: Thomas (b. 1799) who married Lucy (Richardson), John (b. 1810) who married Sarah Brannon, Wiley, Pinkney, Frances (male), James,& Cynthia who married a Bullington. I have found nothing to tie this family into the Underwood Hammett tree. Also connected to this branch (at least thru marriage) is Daniel Hammett (b. @1777) who married Mary (Polly) Vandiver b. 1779. Children were: Moses, Harrington, John, James, Coleman & Elizah. I would be very interested (and grateful) for anything you can share with me. I have started researching other Hammett's that came from SC in the hopes of learing more. My tree desends thru Thomas, to Barham Ellis (old "Barr") who lived on Lookout Mountain, AL at one time, then to Warren Hammett. Some of family stayed in SC, some moved on to GA, TX, AL & OK. I was born in OK, my grandparents in GA. Two other males in our tree I'm searching for are: William A. (Asbury) & brother James W (born 1820 & 1828). They spelled their last name Hammitt. Their decendants also lived on Lookout Mt. are connected somehow. Any info you could share would be most appreciated. I would be happy to send you a more detailed tree.
