Barbara >> Hi Barbara, Thank you for your response! :) I'm interested in Thomas and Milly (Hitch) NICHOLS. Please tell me more! I descend from a Joshua HITCH who m. Elizabeth CALLAWAY in Kent Co., DE on 22 NOV 1854 & they lived in Caroline Co., MD. Joshua appears to die young, so I have very little info on him or his family. He is my g-g-grandfather. 1870 Census--Greensboro, 3rd Dist., Caroline Co., MD Joshua HITCH 40 M W DE Laborer HITCH Elizabeth 38 F W DE Mary E 15 F W MD Batanni 13 F W MD Sarah 11 F W MD Elizabeth 5 F W MD Now, getting back to the NICHOLs. Elizabeth CALLAWAY's parents I believe are Levin-Leven CALLAWAY & Elizabeth NICHOLS who m. 15 Mar 1827 in Kent Co., DE. They appear to die young, too. The query I sent out was for a gentleman who asked me to help him find descendants so he can give them a genealogy gift. Thanks! :) A Very Happy New Year! :) May The Road Rise To Meet You, May The Wind Be Always At Your Back, May The Sun Shine Warm Upon Your Face, The Rain Fall Soft Upon Your Fields, And, Until We Meet Again May God Hold You In The Palm Of His Hand.
