Research Notes

William Hammock/Hammack and Judith Clark Hammock were both deceased by 1840. There is no evidence of why both William and Judith died; however, Cholera was a problem in 1832 through 1856 including Richmond and surrounding area. Their two known children, William Clark Hammock born 1820 and Elizabeth Jane Hammock born 1831 were taken in by the Matthew Neal family who then moved to Amite County, Mississippi taking the Hammock children with them. They were in Amite County by 1842 when William Clark Hammock married Nancy Faust. His sister, Elizabeth Jane was living in their household in the 1850 census. In 1852, Elizabeth Jane married David William Dunn.

Hammock-328 and Hammock-87 appear to represent the same person because: These two profiles represent the same person as they are both married to the same wife, Nancy Faust who will also need to be merged.

This merge has been completed.
