Timothy This Hammond family was the same one that lived around the area of Hammond in Robertson Co TX I think. I have not worked this Hammond line out & really should. I have a Hammond line in Robertson Co TX but can find no connection with this Hammond line. Mine is George W Hammond came to Bremond in the 1870s from Giles Co TN. I have worked on this George Hammond line for yrs & find no connection as of now. There is info around on these Hammond families from Hammond Robertson Co TX just have never pulled it all together. I want to think that the family that owned the Hammond Factory in Waco TX was from this line. Herberta Mask did a book on the obits of the Kosse TX area & if she is still on this list she may know of the family you are searching for. I know I have seen the name William Rayford Hammond. I went though my Hammond files & it is not a name in my own line. Pat Oates in TX At 02:12 PM 3/6/2005 -0700, you wrote: >Pat, > Am afraid 1866 is much too young. I think Susan was 25 when she died.

Pat, I have just got to get the obituary book. Might give me the names of cousins to my grandfather. Limestone County says it doesn't have a death cert for either the Hammonds or my Henrys. Neither does Robertson Co. I don't know where to look. Patricia Oates wrote: > Timothy > This Hammond family was the same one that lived around the area of Hammond > in Robertson Co TX I think.

There are many death cert. missing from the Limestone Co area about this time. My own GGrandparents who died in Limestone Co in the 1920s do not have death cert. Limestone Co refused to keep these records until the state got into it. What records they kept were just hit & miss type. They did not even do birth cert. until way after they were to start in 1903. Lots of Limestone Co people had to get delayed birth records when they were grown. It is sad for all of us chasing our ancestors but that is just the way it is & we have to work with what we can find. I do know that the person who was keeping the vital records for the south east area of Limestone Co <Oletha area> did not turn the records he kept into the court house & when they found this it was too late, I was told, for then to be filed. No one has any idea where these records went.
