    1. Re: Info needed on Price book
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Price, Brooks, Klepper, Henard, Carpenter, Altom Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XeB.2ACE/2012.1.1.2 Message Board Post: There are no copies left of the Price book. I also wanted to let the people reading the Hawkins Board know that I have a different Email address now, which can be found in the usual way. I do not want to put it in the body of the message because of the spam email address collectors, but you know how. I have recently decided to try to start identifying members of the other Price lines besides the Henry Price Jr. Line, and would really appreciate being in contact with other Price researchers to help with problems on other lines, especially those that may have left Hawkins Co. Thanks to the wonderful efforts of the Hawkins Co. Genealogical and Historical Society which has published so many of the records available, we have great resources available. BUT, once they leave Hawkins, it's not so easy. For instance, there are Prices that went to Hamblen Co. that I can find few records on after 1930. Now the fact is, there are probably more people with the surname Brooks that are des! cendants of Henry Price than there are with the surname Price! That's because two of the Price daughters married men named Brooks. Other surnames (but certainly not all) that are important are the Klepper, Henard, Elkins, Carpenter, Altom lines. As far as I can tell anyone named Altom in Hawkins Co. is also a Price descendant. Sometimes when people leave Hawkins its hard to know where they go. Maybe by this coordinating of several lines, it will help put together information that will help people on their brick walls. If I know answers, I'll be glad to help in return for what you know on your own family line.
