I am researching the following families. The Boland family. The Goins (Goyne)families. The John Hicks Hamer family. The Shadrack Crouch family. The Gideon Cummings family. The Benjamin Arnold Fussell family. Plus these families are allied families to one of the above families and information will be accepted for them where found. The Britton Barnes family, the Charner Bell Strange family, and the Arthur Goodson family. This family site is intended to be a place where family members can find and also offer additional family data for their family as a member of one of the above listed families. All information can be sent to Ernest at this e-mail address. pahoke@earthlink.net

- William Jackson Hamer (Uncle Billy Hamer) (30 KB)
According to the Hamer book "John Hick Hamer of Anson North Carolina" compiled by Flora Janie Hooker in Ernest Pope Boland's possession, Billy had a son named Nolon.
Sarah Jane "Sallie" Anthony wrote about him in a letter she sent to the compiler of the Hamer book.
In his latter years, Billy lived in Columbus with Nolon.[John Hamer Bladen County, N.C..FTW]
Uncle Billy was wounded in both legs during the Civil War. He also lost the sight in one eye, and had a lot of trouble from these wounds the rest of his life. He applied for a pension in 1903 and received it. He received his pension from the State of Georgia through the year of 1907, and I guess until his death in 1930.
