2005 February 3 - The Nehemiah Hundley Register has been completely regenerated for the first time since it was posted a year ago. Since the file was getting so large I broke the register up into separate files for each child of Nehemiah.
2005 January 11 - We are indebted to Gennis Gonzalez for providing us with transcriptions of letters from her cousin Bertha (HUNDLEY) PICKERING which indicate that Deletha Ann (HUNDLEY) (TUCKER) (ATWOOD) WILSON and Calvin George HUNDLEY who were residents of Campton Twp., Kane Co., Illinois in 1850 were siblings. Gennis has also supplied copies of letters from John P. HUNDLEY dated 1969 and 1971 indicating that Deletha Wilson, Elizabeth Gage and Luther Hundley were known to be siblings to his ancestor John R. Hundley.
2005 January 10 - A big thank you to Pat Hornick of the Elgin Genealogical Society in Elgin, Illinois for supplying us with the obituary for Angeline (HUNDLEY) (POWELL) GARVIN who died at Elgin on 8 March 1901.
2005 January 8 - A special thanks to Mark Rain for further contributions concerning information on the descendants of Sarah Elizabeth (HUNDLEY) RYAN.
2004 December 15 - After a lot of searching thru the Index to the Ohio Civil War Roster for Nehemiah Hundley, son of Austin, who married first Amazetta Humphrey, then Bettie Crew and lived in Kanawha County, Kathy O. Smith-Hundley finally found the military record for him. Looking thru the names for the 47th Regiment of Infantry, Co H, he was discovered - the only HUNTLEY -- and it was "Steak" as rhymes with "Stape" and "Slape". (His middle name was actually Staples, but he was referred to as Slape and Stape in various other records.) According to the roster, he enlisted at age 18 on Sept 2, 1862, and mustered out on May 1, 1865 at expiration of term of service (3 years). Kathy knew from the National Archives' Union Pension cards what unit he was in, and that he was wounded, for which he (and later widow Bettie) were pensioned.
2004 - June 10 - Our special Thanks to Rebecca Merritt of Boone Co., Indiana for locating the will for Nehemiah S. Hundley born 1806 and died 1870. The will proves that he had at least 2 families and was the father of the children of Sarah McClung and 4 of the children of Martha (Bradshaw) Calvert. See the register for details.
2004 - April 2 - Posted 1783 and 1785 Amherst Tax Roll extracts for Nehemiah Hundley on the NH Register. The Nehemiah STANLEY in 1783 with 4 white souls may actually be the same person as the Nehemiah HUNDLEY at Amherst in 1785 with 5 white souls. This would indicate another child for Nehemiah and his wife. A hand written St could look like an H. Need to check the original document. Transcriptions are at: http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/va/amherst/
Nehemiah HUNDLEY Sr. is given as an early settler of Amherst in : http://www.rootsweb.com/~vaamhers/docs/EarlySettlers.html - From the Alexander Brown papers in the Special Collections Department, Swem Library, College of William and Mary, Williamsburg, VA
