CARRAWAY, FULFORD, HYMAN, NELSON, OLIVER posted by Florence Fulford Moore on Wednesday, December 19, 2001: HYMAN, Thomas G. - seeking to locate information on Thomas G. Hyman and any surviving family who might know of his ancestry, who owned Hyman Supply businesses in both New Bern and Wilmington in late 1800s and early 1900s. In all probability, he was the only surviving son of Samuel Oliver Hyman and Mary Carraway Nelson Hyman of New Bern. (Several daughters survived.) I would love to meet his descendants as they are cousins, if there are any. Thank you for your assistance. Florence Fulford Moore

BENSON, HATCH, MILLER posted by JJohnson on Sunday, December 30, 2001: William B. MILLER and wife Narcissa HATCH MILLER lived in Wilmington, NC in the early 1800s. Narcissa was a member of the Front Street Methodist Episcopal Church, now known as Grace UMC, in Wilmington. Narcissa died 5 July 1818, according to church records. A death notice in a local newspaper listed the death of William B. MILLER on 13 July 1821, age about 33 years. The 1820 New Hanover County census listed the household of William B. Miller. There was one male under 10. This was my great-great grandfather, William Edwin MILLER. There was another male and two female minors listed in the house in addition to William Edwin MILLER. William Edwin MILLER married Ann BENSON of Bladen County in 1835. William Edwin MILLER moved to Marion County, SC sometime before 1844. Any researchers interested in sharing information please e-mail me.
