From: Darcy Hoisington Subject: [HOISINGTON-L] New Family Date: Mon, 01 Jun 1998 10:57:55 -0400 Hello All! I'm pleased to announce that a new family is joining the Hoisington lineage. My daughter, Andrea, is marrying Crofton Sange Marshall on August 22, this year. I started his parents on FTM about 3 years ago so I'm hoping to add that line in my FTM after the wedding -- so many relatives, so little time! Crofton is 2nd generation Americanized Brit. His paternal side of the family is from Ealing, England (where I was born also! - but with American military father stationed post-WWII) and Czechoslavia. Maternal side is Whitworth -- and traces back through the Colonies much like the Hoisington line in Vermont/New York. Good genes in all! I can see this summer is going to fly by ---- but I will be sharing more Hoisington stories -- it's going to take a week for me to calm down!!

Perry H., is known as the "Father of the Kansas National Guard. Three of her brothers were West Pointers. After graduation from the College of Notre Dame at Baltimore, she entered officers training school, then WAC officers training. She served in England, France, Germany and Japan. In 1970, she was given the rank of General of the Women's Army Corps -- the first to hold that rank.

My grandmother (Clara Alice Hoisington Morris), who was the one who originally got me started being interested in my Hoisington ancestors, and was David Augustus' sister. Grandma had lots of information on her sisters' families (and 3 of them [Pearl, Nora and Ada]lived within 10 miles of me in Richmond CA when I was a kid), but almost nothing on her brothers' families, most of whom were in Texas. I am planning on putting up a rudimentary Hoisington web site any day now (if I can finally get System 7.6 put on my old MAC so that I can load my HTML program and start dumping all the family reports into it). If you have a genealogy program that puts out GEDCOMs, I would love to receive one from you so that I can add it to the web page. You can send it to me at . Otherwise, I can create a blank family history sheet and send it to you online. Then you could just copy the file for each family group and fill in whatever info you have. [BTW, this goes for anyone else who wants their families info included ithe Hoisington web site.] I would be more than happy to fill you in on any part of the family that you need.

Tina ================================================================================== From: Darcy Hoisington Subject: [HOISINGTON-L] Col. Perry Hoisington Date: Wed, 03 Jun 1998 11:38:17 -0400 The following is excerpted from Connelley, William E. A Standard history of Kansas and Kansans. Chicago: Lewis Publishing Company, 1918. (Vol. 5) but no page numbers are given. It was available through Ancestry.com 5/12/98. Frederick A. Hoisington did not follow the example of his brothers and become a solider [in the Civil War: see Wells and Hoisington Letters, emails by D. Hoisington, May 1998] for the reason that he was partially crippled in one arm. He grew up and married in St. Joseph County, Michigan and followed the business of farming and brick manufacturing. He was an active Republican, filled various township offices, and was a very strong and devout Methodist. He died at Three Rivers, Michigan in 1907. His wife was Rachel French, who was born in Cattagaugus County, New York, in 1833, and is now living [in 1918] at Three Rivers at the venerable age of 84. She was the mother of 7 children: the oldest, Veloria, died at the age of 5 years; the second in age is Colonel [Perry] Hoisington of Newton; Alma C. lives in Newton, wife of George H. Walker, a traveling salesman; Myra died at Newton, Kansas, unmarried at age of 33; Herbert H. was accidentally killed on the railroad at three Rivers at age 20 years; the two youngest of the family, Jessie and Grace, are still at home [in 1918] with their mother at Three Rivers. Colonel Hoisington was born in St. Joseph County, Michigan, October 13, 1858. He is of old English stock, his ancestors having come out of southern England and settled in Bridgeport, Connecticut, about fifty years before the opening of the Revolutionary War. His great-great-grandfather James Hoisington served as a soldier in the Revolution and doubtless some of his martial spirit was inherited by Colonel Hoisington [this is where Harriette and I think the line was confused by the writer; we can't trace Perry/Frederick/Abisha Aaron back to James]. Perry M. Hoisington secured his education in the public schools of Three Rivers. When seventeen years of age he became self supporting, farmed for a time and also took over his father's [Frederick] business. In the winter season he taught school. For two years he traveled on the road as a salesman. Colonel Hoisington came to Kansas in the fall of 1881, spending the following winter at Clay Center, and in the spring of 1882 went back to Michigan. In the fall of 1884 he took up his home at Newton, where he engaged in the transfer business of the town. In 1889 Colonel Hoisington followed the exodus to Oklahoma participating in the opening of that territory and at Guthrie engaged in the transfer business. While at Guthrie he was given the contract to construct the first waterworks plant, a temporary plant that served until a permanent one could be built. He was also in the coal business at Guthrie, and secured a number of lots in that city which he later sold at a good profit. His business career has been equally successful and progressive. Col. Hoisington is president of the first National Bank of Newton and has been identified with the Railroad Building, Loan and Savings association of Newton throughout the twenty years of its very prosperous existence. Col. Perry M. Hoisington of Newton, is one of the big men of Kansas today. For over a quarter of a century he has been closely identified with the state military organization, at first with the old Kansas Militia and now with the Kansas National Guard. At the head of his fine regiment, the Second, he gave some good service on the Texas Border in 1916 and is now ready for the call to duty in France [World War I; I'm estimating that Perry was born about 1858 (his mother born in 1833 + 20 years/generation +/- 5 years/second childbirth = 1858. By 1918 Perry would have been +/- 60 years, a little old for enlisting in WWI, but a patriotic statement typical of that American political era]. On June 15, 1915, at Newton, was solemnized the marriage of Mr. Hart and Miss Helen Hoisington. Mrs. Hart is a daughter of Col. P.M. and Kate (Gregory) Hoisington. Her father is one of Newton's most widely known citizens, president of the first National Bank and also now a colonel of the Second Regiment of the Kansas National Guard. [if anyone can round out this info -- add more dates for family members, etc., it would be appreciated! thanks, Darcy] ================================================================================ From: harriette jensen Subject: Unidentified subject! Date: Wed, 3 Jun 1998 23:25:40 -0700 (PDT) Hi, All. Got off work early today and guess what I did. Went fishing! Here's what I caught: 1) From a list of Kansas Legislators (Kansas State Historical Society page) Name: Verne E. Hoisington Born: Died: Occupation: Wholesale Grocer County: Russell Town: Paradise Party: Republican District: 32 Chamber: Senate 1957, 1958, SS1958, 1959, 1960 Notes: This looks to be Verne Eugene Hoisington, b. 21 Jun 1908 Leoti, Wichita Co., KS, son of Roy Albert Hoisington and Marguerite Riley, and grandson of Andrew Jackson Hoisington and Mary Smith. 2) For those of you that are interested in reading more about Perry Milo Hoisington, there is an article on the Kansas State Militia's "Hall of Fame" page ;. It contains this interesting (but partially erroneous) statement: "Two of Hoisington's children [actually his grandchildren, they are the children of his son Edward Gregory Hoisington, an officer in the US Reg Army and an instructor at West Point]; Maj. Gen. Perry M Hoisington, II, USAF retired and Brig. Gen. Elizabeth P. Hoisington, USA retired, are the only brother and sister who have become generals in the history of the Armed Forces." There's also a picture of Perry Milo (I) in full uniform. 3) And from the Roster of 1812 Soldiers, Vol. 1. (Ohio Historical Society page): ROLL OF CAPT. WILLIAM KILGORE'S COMPANY. (County Unknown.) Served from February 16 until April 16, 1814. Part served until August 16, 1816. Privates Hasselton, Daniel Hasselton, David ROLL OF CAPT. CONRAD FLESHER'S C0MPANY.(Probably from Ross County.) Served from July 28, until September 5, 1813, and from March 12, until April 16, 1814. Corp. John Haselton Not a bad catch!

Hoisington II Date: Thu, 04 Jun 1998 08:54:54 -0500 Hi everyone: Its been a while. With the end of school and getting ready for our summer dinner theatre, it has been busy. Bill, Kenda and I traveled with our A Cappella Choir on a 12 day tour overseas. Went to Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. There were 60 of us and we had a great time. I have serveral other items on this family line that I will send thru. The following is a newspaper article printed in May of l964. Major General Perry M. Hoisington II is the director of the legislative liaison, office of the Secretary of the Air Force at the Pentagon, Washington, D.C. Perry M. Hoisington, II was born at West Point, N.Y., March 14, 1916, the son of Colonel and Mrs. Gregory Hoisington. He was one of six children, three boys and three girls. Prior to his graduation from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1939, General Hoisington attended John Hopkins University 1934-35. One year after having received his degree and commission, he graduated from Kelly Field in Texas and became a pilot in the U.S. Army Air Corps. For the first several years of World War II, General Hoisington served in the Training Command. He joined the first B-29 organization, the 20th Bomber Command, and served in combat actions against the Japanese from India, China, and the Mariannus Islands. He participated in the first daylight and night missions of the B-29's against the Japan mainland. Following the war, General Hoisington was assigned as the first commander of the Atomic Test Center at Kirkland AFB, Albuquerque, N.M. This was followed by his attendance at the Air Command and Staff School, Maxwell AFB, Ala., and assignment to the Air Force Office of Atomic Energy in the Pentagon. General Hoisington was one of the first officers to be assigned to the new Air Research and Development Command when it was activated in 1950. Upon finishing this tour of duty, he attended the Air War College and was then assigned to NATO's Allied Forces Southern Europe in Naples, Italy. Upon returing to the United States, the General joined the Strategic Air Command where for five an a half years he commanded the 818th, 57th, 820th, and 6th Air Divisions, respectively. General Hoisington is the father of three sons: Gregory, 20; Perry, l7; and John, 16. ================================================================================== From: "Bruder, Karen - COB" Subject: [HOISINGTON-L] Hoisingtoniana Date: Thu, 4 Jun 1998 08:23:03 -0700 Hi folks, I am new to the group here so I don't know what info anyone has about anything. I have some information I will share later on - I need to type it on the computer as it is typewritten and getting harder to read as the days go by. The below information is something our family has had around for awhile. It was compiled by a Henry Hoisington, I don't know how he is related to me. I thought it was interesting, if you have read it before or find it boring, my apologies. HOISINGTONIANA JOHN HORSINGTON (or Hossington) b about 1650-55 in England. Alleged to have been kidnapped in England and brought when a boy of about 15 years to America where he was sold on Long Island to pay for his passage. The Horsingtons of England have as much right to claim descent from the Gods as have any of the Royalty of Europe who base their "Divine Rights" on descent from Woden, legendary God of War. After the Romans abandoned Britain, the harassed British People induced a powerful tribe from East Anglia to come over and protect them from the Picts and Scots. In 449-50 A.D. Hengist and Horsa, brothers and great-great-grandchildren of Woden brought about 1000 men in boats made of skins across the North Sea. It is admittedly impossible to trace the entire chain of descent of the Horsingtons from Horsa but the syllables "-ING-TON" really signify "Sons of" and allusions to men by name of Horsington are found in the very earliest English records. There was a Gilbert de Horsington in Lincolnshire in A.D. 1273 (Bardsley's Dictionary of English and Welsh Surnames, 1901); a Gerald de Horsington in the time of Edward I, King (1292), and I find in the English Parish Registers Horsingtons of 1589, 1625, 1648, 1655, etc. down to 1873. In 1864 three brothers came over from Somersetshire and their descendants still use the name of Horsington and reside in the vicinity of Syracuse, New York. Mr. Almon Kidder of Monmouth, Illinois, to whom I am much indebted for information of early Hoisingtons believed that the John Horsington, Sergeant in Captain Samuel Wadsworth's Company of Massachusetts Militia in the War with the Indian Metacom or "King Phillip" 1675-76 and the John Horsington or Hossington of Long Island were identical. John Hossington held local office in Suffolk County, Long Island and married Mary (Stanborough) Edwards, Widow of John Edwards as proven by a Surrogates Decree in the matter of the will of _____ Edwards (d 23 Jan 1688) which will was filed 10 Nov 1693. It is my present belief, however, that he had been married before while in Connecticut and this his only son of record, John II, was by his former wife for in the probate records of Early Connecticut (Mainwaring) appears the statement that about Michaelmas, 1692, one William Hills of Hocanum (Weathersfield) is proved to have willed that "-the boy Hossington be at the dispose of his (Hill's) dou Phyllis (24 yrs old) until he come of full age." In arranging this family tree I have in no case had occasion to set down any untruth and have made such available tests to information furnished me as to insure probable credibility of all statements. If the work is incomplete, it is not for want of persistence or intent of the author who has personally visited the great genealogical libraries of the N.E. Historical and Genealogical Society at Boston; The Newberry at Chicago; Reynolds at Rochester, N.Y.; Congressional at Washington, D.C.; State Historical at Madison, Wisconsin; State Libraries at Albany, N.Y.; Lansing, Michigan; Denver, Colorado; and the exhaustive Central Library at Los Angeles as well as many others.

Bruder bruder@bus.orst.edu ================================================================================== From: Follini Subject: [HOISINGTON-L] Guild of One Name Studies Date: Thu, 04 Jun 1998 20:40:22 -0300 Dear Harriette and all: I contacted by snailmail John Moxon, 6 Halstone Avenue, Wilmslow, Cheshire, England SK9 6NA who is listed on the net as the contact person for the name Horsington, in the Guild of One Name Studies. He kindly sent me back the following information: "Since Civil Registration in 1835, most Horsingtons in England are to be found in Somerset and there is a lovely little village of that name in this county. There is also a village in Lincolnshire of the same name from which the surname seems to have sprung (Bardsley's Dictionary of English and Welsh Surnames.)" Moxon sent me a booklet of the history of Horsington in Somerset, with a picture of Horsington House, a large mansion. I believe our John 1st probably came from Lincolnshire, or from that branch of the Horsingtons, because he came to Puritan Massachusetts, and the northeast of England was a hotbed of Puritanism. I expect John Moxon would be interested in hearing from others studying Horsingtons, as he said he had had only a few replies to his listing! He did not have an e-mail address, but was most kind about sending information through the post. Harriette, did you receive the Bowman article I sent? perhaps it went to the wrong address. Bowman passes on the tradition that John 1st sailed from England with his parents - and that the father either died on the voyage, or died in a return voyage to England. It does not appear John 1st was a bound servant. However, John 2nd seems to have been a bound boy, probably because he was still a minor, when his mother died and his father remarried and went to live in Long Island with his second wife. Of course, Long Island (now New York State) was part of Massachusetts or Connecticut Colony at the time. Harriette, since all of us descendants are either from John 3, James, or Ebenezer, is there any way to group together those from each of these respective ancestors?? I would like to hear from other descendants of James! Of course, I'm interested in all the Hoisingtons. Also - can anyone make clear the migration patterns? How come some Hoisingtons ended up in Michigan, some in Oklahoma, etc.? What was the ancestry of the Hoisington for whom Hoisington Kansas is named? Enough for now. Thanks for all the good info. coming over the list.

One of my suggestions was that she check the census in the "neighborhood" where her ggg-grandparents lived when Jesse was born to see if there might be a neighbor names Hasentine/Hesseltine/Hoisington.

If you would like us to mail you a copy, send me your postal address (in private e-mail) and we'll get one out to you. :) Be forewarned though, that when Harry did his research back in 1931-39, he made one original, and 4 carbon copies, on a typewriter. What we have is a photo copy of a carbon copy, and some things are illegible. But, there is still a lot of valuable information there. (It's about 100 pages I'd guess) Even with all the errors, it's very valuable to have. I had *nothing* other than one Hoisington surname, before I obtained a copy of Harrys' book...Eventually I'll finish entering it into my data base. Right now I'm only on about person number 44 of some 500 (?) individuals Harry has. :( And I think Harriette said she's working on putting it all on a web page too, plus more? (Tina K., yours *will* be in the mail soon, she inadvertently left out a few pages when she gave me the copy, and I have to get those from her before I put it in the mail to you. Sorry for the delay.) By the way, if anyone has the "Kidder" genealogy, I don't have a copy of that, and would love to have one...

I have photos of headstones for Hoisingtons' in that cemetery: Orace, Orange, Ebenezer, William, George, Laura, Elias, Elisha... (And spouses of most of same). When I get a minute to sort everything out, I'll post the data from the stones. I'll also get them scanned in, and then can send to you as attachments (in private e-mail) any that are "yours". Because I didn't "plan" to stop at Windsor this time, I was not prepared. But I will be making a trip, just for Hoisingtons', to Windsor and Woodstock soon, and will get more for you then. And meanwhile, I'm happy to share what I've acquired on this trip.

NO Charge! :) I just have to find time to scan them in, and then can easily send them to you as an attachment, (assuming your system can open attachments? That's why I'll send them in private e-mail since not everyones system can handle attachments.) And eventually I'll have them on my web page too. I really have to learn HTML!! :) But I can type in the data from the photos, and send that through to the list as text. I don't think there's anything "new", but I'll send it anyway. >Looking forward to your info --if you want to wander a little further >north in Vermont to Middlesex and Stowe, graveyard trekking, I have some >additional names to search! :) >darcy Yeah, I DID actually get to the door of Vital Records in Middlesex on Friday, May 29. Only to discover that Vermont celebrates the "traditional" Memorial Day and V.R. was closed! Since I'm in N.Y., and we had observed it the previous Monday, it never occured to me to check which day Vt. V.R. would be open. :) Anyway, that was one of the changes in plans. I'll be going back after the 14th for a few days, and hope I choose a day to go to Middlesex that's not a "holiday" this time!! :) And I should have more time in Windsor.

It was sobering to be there, but I must have pushed the feeling down, because I was just rushing through, since it had not been a "planned" part of this trip. But when I started typing in the inscriptions last night, it was really awesome. And those were just a few. (I didn't even check out Woodstock and other cemeteries). There's just "something" about this family. Maybe because I was so drawn to Caira for so long, beating my head against a wall, and always coming up empty before I finally found her lineage....?

Last week, I came across the following Hoisington look-alikes in the "Surname Index by the Iowa Genealogical Society" (1977,1983): HOSELTON, Asahelb.178? VT, m. Marmery Harding (see next posting on NY census) HOSELTON, George V.b. 1831 NY, d. 1894 IA, m.1854 to Harriet A. Tubbs HOSELTON, Granderson D.b. 1812 NY, d. 1882 IA, m 1) Polly Farman, 2) Martha Stickle 1860 IL (see next posting on NY census) HOSELTON, Mary Eginab. 1855 NY, d. 1900 IA, m. Charles Weetman in 1878 IL Asahel definitely looks like one of ours, although none of the Asahels I have in my database have a bd close to his. HESSELTINE, Horatiob. 1846 OH, d. 1936 IA, m. Angelina Woods 1869 IA This looks like it could be one of ours also. We have a Henry Horatio, but he lived and died in MA. Woods have married into the Hoisington family before. HAZELTON, Lt.

MA, d. 1795 NH, m. m. 1) Mary, 2) Mary Graves I wouldn't have included these, but Hoisingtons married both Shattucks and Graves and we all know how Hoisingtons like to marry cousins! And some more Hoseltons: HOSELTON, Jacobb. OH, m. Magdeline Weets HOSELTON, Sevilla/Civilla J.b. 1842 OH, d. 1912, m.

From the same trip to the library, I copied out the following Hoisington look-alike names. Some of the names are very differently spelled, but when pronounced are similar or could be an abbreviated form of Hossington. When I started to transcribe them to computer, I noted that there were several different spellings that were in the same area. So I put all the information into a table and sorted it by the county and line to see if I could determine which, if any of the look-alike spellings was, in fact, a Hoisington. 1)This is the alphabetical listing of all the look-alikes that I found: HASSEDINE, ThomasONE009Rome Twp HASELTINE, John W.CLI185Ellenbur HASELTINE, LewisCLI185Ellenbur HASELTINE, PhoebeCLI185Ellenbur HASELTON, ElizabethCAY090Mentz HASELTON, EzekielALL174Independ HASELTON, JesseALL164Independ HASELTON, JosephSCH256Fulton HASELTON, Mary S.REN378Hodsick HASELTON, PhilipALL164Independ HASELTON, PhilipALL174Independ HASELTON, SamuelALL164Independ HASELTON, WilliamESS411Rocheste HASETON, LillisCLI176Ellenbur HASLENTIN, SimonWAS320Jackson HASLETAN, J.

Have you ever seen the sheet music? My son is in India this summer for a college missions project -- just passed through Madras. I asked him to look up any Hoisingtons -- those spiritual children on Henry and Nancy Hoisington (for the rest of the list-- they were missionaries to India and Sri Lanka in the early 1800s. Apparently, at least one native student took on the name of his teacher). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ================================================================================== From: Rob Hoisington Subject: [HOISINGTON-L] Re: Unidentified subject!

I think Lou had a great idea in trying to put us all in perspective. I think this would be a great addition to the Hoisington Family web page. We could call it "Hoisington Researchers" (not very creative, but descriptive). However, I think we have been coming at it in different ways. Some of us have put the earliest known ancestor and some of have started at a later generation. All of us descend from John III's children, so I created a chart with the first 5 generations of John Horsington's descendants, put everyone who (lately) sent a lineage in, and tried to put us all on the correct child of John III (with later Hoisington generations if known). The ones that I have on the chart lean heavily towards Joab's line. I know there are other lines out there that aren't yet represented. (NOTE TO DANIEL: I didn't put yours on the chart because I think you sent yours in one time and it didn't link that late with mine. Could you send it to me again?) If you have previously sent your lineage, but it doesn't appear here or if it's, would you send it again to me privately so I won't have to go rummaging through the archives (It's dusty in there!). (NOTE TO DARCY: The memory's going. Please send me your husband's name again so that I can put him on the chart with you.) If you can't trace your lineage back to the first 5 generations yet, send what you have, back to the earliest known Hoisington. Anyway, the chart is below. Try to get any additions to me this week, and I'll post a revised chart next weekend.

You never know. I'm going back several times this summer and I just > might find something for you. :) (I don't "do" Vermont in the winter.) I had hoped to do some "deadfolks" on-site research but with the wedding I won't be able to get more time off. So, if you're on the road to the Middlesex records depository, there is a small cemetary just off the 2-lane road that runs parallel to the interstate from Montpelier to Middlesex. If you come off the interstate to the Middlesex exit (? #6) and take a left instead of a right (to the records depository) you need to drive about 1 mile or less to the first intersection. There's a little graveyard on the left behind a barn. I've got folks there: Timothy Abbott and his wife Sarah/Sally, and I believe her parents Sarah/Sally Smith. Any one with the names Abbott, Smith, Sallies or Jackman in that area are "mine". I have some info on Sallies: they were masons/farmers in that area (well, who wasn't?) and Lucien Sr. was married for over 50 years. The family was involved in the Spiritualists revival in the later 1800's, having broken off from the Quakers to explore seances, table-tapping and other means of communicating with "the beyond". It was pretty active in the Stowe area for about 3-5 years and then faded. I couldn't find anything farther back for Sallies at the time I was in Vermont (1993) but my research skills weren't very good at that time. The name may have French or Portugese lines -- I look as Portugese as the Pillsbury Doughboy -- but there are many family members who have the dark skin and dark eyes including my father and my half-aunt. Anyway, I don't have info farther back than mid-1800's. Jackman: This is my great-grandmother's paternal line. I have her father and his father (will get actual names for you) and not much more. Her father (my g-g-grandfather) married twice with one wife (g-grandmother's mother) dying at childbirth. Again, the Vermont records weren't too forthcoming but it was several years ago that I poked through only the Middlesex records. Abbott: Timothy Abbott seems to have sprung spontaneously from New England soil. He appears first in Henniker, New Hampshire and married Sarah Smith, daughter of Ezekiel, who moved with other Smith family members from Marlboro, MA en masse to Henniker.(For such a common name, Smith, I have a pretty clear history of several generations) Then Timothy and Sarah move first to Thetford and on to Stowe where the lines mesh with Sallies first and then Jackman. I'm guessing that Timothy probably originated back in Mass, somehow connected to the Abbott line (first immigrant and founding "father" George Abbott, but I'm about 2-3 generations from George (in time) with no parental lineage on Timothy). I've searched the Abbott "book" that records most of the lines and I can't make a match. Timothy is buried in the cemetary in Middlesex. I found it by chance one day and didn't have anything to record what is on the gravestone, partly because it's weathered marble and hard to read. Probably will need to take a picture and then "read" from the negative, a reverse image might be clearer than the actual positive. He has a huge headstone with lots of writing (maybe some clues!). I'll get more info to you (specific names and dates). This is NOT A PRIORITY. The nice thing with deadfolks is that they don't go anywhere! thanks for all your help! --darcy ================================================================================= From: Darcy Hoisington Subject: Re: [HOISINGTON-L] Fwd: Gravestone pictures Date: Mon, 08 Jun 1998 10:10:45 -0400 To Kathleen and all..

It looked like me with my hair pulled back in a bun and period dress. I was told that she was my great grandmother. Needless to say I'd like to find out more about her and where she came from. We both have unusual traits. I'm 4'6" and about 75-80 lbs.. and rather dark coloring for a Caucasian, and so was she. I just can't help but wonder.

Share that with your readers. Help them understand why your hobby has become an obsession. Help them understand that these aren't names on paper, they are your family, they are real people. By learning about the context of our ancestors' lives, we can turn those scraps of paper in our files into people--and share that magic with others." This book is normally priced at $19.95, but as part of our Family History Day celebration, it will be available through the weekend for only $16.95 at the Online Store. ============================================ GEORGE MORGAN: FAMILY ASSOCIATIONS The task of locating information about a family surname requires investigation in many directions. "Along Those Lines. . . " often gets questions from people via e-mail asking for help in locating others of a specific surname. I can't help everyone individually, of course, but maybe I can provide some suggestions. Tracing Surnames There are many reasons and motivations for tracking surnames. They include: ~ Searching for lost relatives -Yes, this one is pretty obvious. If you're reading this column, I'm certain you're researching your genealogy and looking for relatives, both living and dead. ~ Searching for heirs - Lawyers spend a great deal of time attempting to locate heirs for an estate. One of my friend's grandmother in NJ died a wealthy woman around the turn of the century. Her estate was left to her children and grandchildren. The last son died in 1956, at which time, a team of lawyers and paralegals began a multiyear search for all the heirs of the estate. ~ Investigating migration patterns - Some researchers are interested in determining where members of a family and their descendants moved and where they settled. ~ Marketing genealogical research -Perhaps you have written and published a family history and want to market it to interested parties. You certainly need to make people with that surname aware that the book is available. ~ Preparing for a family reunion -Reunions are a very popular activity. Tracing surnames can help locate the lost relatives you know about, certainly, but they can also attract other people with the same surname about whom you may not have known anything. These are some of the more obvious motivations but there are others too. Your own search may take you to libraries, archives, religious institutions, and all sorts of other places. But have you ever thought about family associations as a resource? What Is A Family Association? A family association is a group of people who are related to each other, share the same surname, or are interested in the study of a specific surname. There are as many reasons for the establishment of family associations as there are reasons for tracing surnames. Many are initially formed as a means of allowing a single family to keep in touch with one another. Often these expand to encompass anyone sharing the same surname. The primary purpose of a family association is to promote communication. Many associations promote genealogical research and the exchange of information between members. This is usually accomplished through publication of a newsletter, either on paper or sent via e-mail - or both ways. The newsletters vary in both quality and quantity of content materials. Some publish articles written by members. Some publish family recipes. Others may publish pedigree charts and family group sheets in order to facilitate "surname exchanges." Some publish calendars of family reunions and other events related to their surname. And some associations allow members to post queries--notices or ads announcing that a member is seeking persons or information. There are a small but growing number of associations who have built surname databases for the purpose of helping with the exchange of information. Family associations are usually subscription-based, where the nominal subscription price covers the expenses of creating, publishing and mailing the newsletter or defrays database/data entry or other costs. The important thing is that, in joining a family association that focuses on your surname or one that you're researching, you add another resource to your genealogical toolkit. You never know where that next, most important, missing piece of information will come from! How Do I Find Out More About Family Associations? There are several ways to learn about family associations. First of all, there are two books available that have compiled all the known family associations. These are: "Directory of Family Associations" (3rd Edition) by Elizabeth Petty Bentley. Published by Genealogical Publishing Company of Baltimore, MD. (1996) -ASIN: 0806315237. This book covers family associations in the United States. You can find this book in many bookstores. It is also is available for order over the Internet from Amazon at: http://www.amazon.com. [This book is also available at Ancestry's Online Store. Ed.] "Genealogical Research Directory" by Keith A. Johnson and Malcolm R. Sainty. Published by the Genealogical Research Directory, Sydney, Australia. Updated and published annually, the current edition is 1998. -ASIN: 0908120702. This book covers surnames all over the world and includes contact names and addresses (sometimes telephone numbers and e-mail addresses as well) of people around the world who manage family associations and/or databases, or who are the sources for information submitted to the directory for publication. It is available for order over the Internet from Amazon at: http://www.amazon.com. [This book is also available at Ancestry's Online Store. Ed.] Another great source for information about family associations is available through your subscription to Internet mailing lists (also sometimes called "listservs"). You may remember that, in my column of March 13th, I talked about the joys of joining mailing lists. Please go back and read it again to refresh your memory of how to subscribe to a mailing list and the "Netiquette" you use when posting and responding. To locate surname mailing lists where you may want to inquire about family associations, please check the Web site maintained by John Fuller. Go to the Web address (URL) below, scroll down to item #3, and click on the letter of the alphabet to learn if there is a mailing list for the surname you're researching. John does a tremendous job keeping the list up to date. Just follow the instructions to subscribe and you're off and running. The Web address for John Fuller's mailing list site is: http://members.aol.com/johnf14246/gen_mail.html Maybe You Want To Start A Family Association? Perhaps you're interested in starting a family association of your own. If you are, there's also a small book available that may answer all those questions you have on the subject. It is: "Family Associations: Organization and Management: A Handbook for New and Existing Organizations" by Christine Rose. Published by the Rose Family Association. ASIN: 0929626061. This book is available by special order from Amazon at: http://www.amazon.com Summary My own experience with family associations has been varied. One family association's newsletter provided me with much information that had been compiled by one of the members from cemetery records of a specific county. Another concerned a surname that had little information of use to me until I submitted a query. Then, I received several very informative responses from other members, all of which helped me to varying degrees with my research. Still another association was of no use. My recommendation is that you make contact with an association of interest to you. Tell them that you're interested in joining family associations but that, before you commit to a subscription, you would like to learn more and see a sample of their newsletter. Most will cheerfully oblige. Family Associations can be another helpful tool in your genealogical research. They can be informative and a lot of fun. Check them out! Happy hunting!
