Probably a positive that they're related, but haven't found it.A busy time right now, but when I get caught up, I'll try checking into the census records, etc to see if there's anything else I can find.I'm also going to post this on the Morgan County site to see if anyone there can jump in with help.I do have a Stephen, but he was born in 1863 in NC.Deb> From: [email protected]> To: [email protected]; [email protected]> Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2007 21:25:35 -0400> Subject: Re: [TN-SCOTT-HISTORY] [TNSCOTT] HAMBY [was Hiram Sexton]> > Deb> > *My* Henry HAMBY was born c 1785 and *your* Reuben was born in 1779, both in > Wilkes County, NC.> > I can't help but wonder if there is a connection between the two that I > haven't seen yet.
