WHEN ABNER MARRIED HATTIE THEY HAD ONE SON HOWARD WHO MARRIED GLADYS, THEY ARE MY HUSBANDS GRANDPARENTS. I HAVE ALWAYS WONDERED ABOUT HATTIE'S MAIDEN NAME AND EVERYTHING ELSE YOU POSTED--THANKS BUNCHES. IN THE FAMILY BIBLE HATTIE'S LAST NAME WAS SCRIBBLED OUT. I DO HAVE A PICTURE OF ABNER DURING THE CIVIL WAR AND A SINGLE PICTURE OF HATTIE AND ONE WHERE SHE IS STANDING WITH HER MOTHER WHO LOOKS AND DRESSES INDIAN, BUT I NEVER KNEW WHICH TRIBE SHE WAS FROM. I AM STILL TRYING TO FIND WHICH TRIBE HATTIE IS FROM. I HAVE SEEN THE ORIGINAL COPY OF THOMAS SINGING A PIECE OF PAPER WHEN HE AND HIS TWO BOYS CAME INTO THE USA. HIS TWO BOYS ARE ABNER AND ISACC FLOOK. BUT I NEVER KNEW THOMAS FLOOK'S WIFE'S NAME, SO MANY THANKS. ABNER'S FIRST FAMILY HAD FRED, LULU AND I THINK 2 MORE SIBLINGS WHICH I HAVE A FAMILY PHOTO OF AND WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH THOSE FROM ABNER'S FIRST FAMILY. I AM ALSO NOW FINDING OUT ABNER'S FIRST WIFE'S NAME AND SUCH. ARE YOU RELATED TO THOMAS FLOOK? ABNER FLOOK? ISACC FLOOK? I DO KNOW THAT ISACC FLOOK LATER MARRIED A WOMAN NAMED EDITH WALL WHO WAS AN AUNT ON MY MOTHER-IN-LAWS SIDE OF THE FAMILY. SORRY THIS SOUNDS SO CONFUSING. THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY CHILDREN TO THIS UNION. I DID PRINT OUT ABNER'S CIVIL WAR BATTLES THAT HE WAS IN AND GAVE IT TO MY HUSBAND AS A CHRISTMAS GIFT, FOR ME I ENJOY THE HISTORY PART OF THE FLOOK'S BECAUSE FOR YEARS, YEARS, AND YEARS HOWARD FLOOK THE ONLY SON OF ABNER & HATTIE DENIED THAT HE WAS INDIAN. HOWARD AND GLADYS FLOOK HAD 2 BOYS WILLIAM DOB 8-29-21 AND ROBERT (BOB) DOB ? WILLIAM WHO IS MY FATHER-IN-LAW LOOKED SO INDIAN THERE WAS NO DENIAL OF HIS HERITAGE WHEREAS ROBERT (BOB) FLOOK HIS YOUNGER BROTHER DID NOT HAVE THE PHYSICAL APPEARANCE OF INDIAN. BOTH WILLIAM AND ROBERT (BOB) HAVE PASSED AWAY AND ARE BURIED IN IDAHO ALONG WITH HOWARD & GLADYS FLOOK. ABNER & HATTIE FLOOK,SETTLED IN WISCONSIN, BUT LATER HOWARD & GLADYS MOVED AWAY FROM WISCONSIN AND SETTLED IN IDAHO ALONG WITH WILLIAM AND HIS FAMILY AND ROBERT (BOB) WHO NEVER MARRIED. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HELP JUNE FLOOK KAMIAH, IDAHO Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
