Herma, let me put it another way. 40 years from now, your great grandniece
tries to research her Armstrong ancestors, so she types the name "Herma
Armstrong", and gets 40 pages of "LIVING ARMSTRONG". You may have had ALL of
the given names in your files, but by then, you are gone. She and the rest
of the world are left without any traceable ties to you. Your own email
address makes you more vulnerable than posting your given name in your
family tree.
My living family appears in 2 genealogy books that were
Recently purchased the books "Scots-Irish Links 1575-1725, Parts One & Two"
and "Scots-Irish Links 1575-1725, Part Three" by David Dobson. These books
are attempting to identify Scots settlers of the Plantation of Ulster and is
based mainly on contemporary primary source material in Ireland, Scotland
and England. In Part Three there were the following Gambles listed:
George Gamble - tenant of John Hamilton of Edenagh, Precinct of Fewes, 1618.
(The Plantation of Ulster #567)

Hi...
there are only 196 pages of the genealogy, plus a few more pages of an
article from the Knox County Historical Genealogical magazine from 1896. If you send
me your name/address I'd be happy to scan/print the pages you are missing.

I copied a legal document a long time ago and just found it again and it contains the names of Andrew Gamble and Agness, a John and Margaret Gamble and a Andrew and Nancy. Anyone interested in a copy please contact me. rmdagg@msn.com would be glad to send it on. Turned out not to be my family..
Or should I just send it to the site so it is on record.?
I, too, am a Gamble descendant, as well as Pomeroy.
Michael Gamble married Mary Elizabeth Pomeroy ca 1834,
Marietta Gamble b. 26 Jun 1853 d. 20 Dec 1935 was 8th child with 8 siblings.
Marietta was my great grandmother.
I have a long list of ancestry on the Gambles and Pomeroy families.

If anyone has the book, please contact me. I have some questions to ask.

Dear list, I am new to this list and am looking to find additional
information on my Gamble line. I don't have much, but here's what I do
have:
James Gamble (or Gambill) date and location of birth unknown. He
married Tennessee Owens. They had at least one daughter, Louisa Gamble
b. 11/1/1851 in Portsmouth, Scioto Co.,OH.
James disappeared when Louisa was just a small girl. He left for a
trading trip on a river boat on the Ohio River, never returning home.
The family always felt that someone knew he ha
Hi! Doesn't seem you got a copy of the original.....try contacting a major
inter-region-
al library and ask (1) If they can get a copy of the original (my 'copy' is
from one of
the 3/4 orignal books remaining) (it may cost you a bit but from my
experience worth
it) - they may get microfilm copy and may/may not allow you to do the copying
at
their library. (I did my own and it saved a bundle - cost about 10 cents a
page with
my own paper and took about 10 hours; their copy machines aren't the fastest
