French Immigrant Thomas Lamar of Maryland

barefootgirl — 19 Jan 2002 10:55:27 GMT

Hi. I'm looking for any additional information on Thomas Lamar, Sr. who was a French (Hugenot) immigrant who came to America (Calvert County, Maryland) on November 17, 1663.

Thomas was born about 1635 in France (I have varying claims of the region being Anjou, Flanders & Normandy). His father's name was David Lemare.

It seems that Thomas married a woman named Mary in approx. 1661 and later a woman named Anne Pottinger before November 24, 1665. I am not sure if the marriages took place in France or Maryland.

In any case, Thomas and one of his wives had a son Thomas Lamar II in 1682 Calvert County, Maryland. Thomas is my ancestor.

If anyone ha any information on these folks, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

Mrs. Frank Lamar killed at Fairland, Oklahoma during a cyclone

FIVE ARE KILLED

Cyclone Sweeps Over Cherokee Nation

Storm Is The Worst Near Choteau

At Choteau John Truelove and Child Were Killed - Indian Woman and Child Killed - Communication Nearly Shut Off

Muskogee: Monday afternoon a cyclone swept over the Cherokee Nation, beginning in the Verdigris River bottoms and extended northeast to the northern part of the Cherokee Nation. At Choteau John Truelove and his child were killed and Mrs. Truelove will die of bruises.

The cyclone veered to the north of the town and barely touched the edge, most of the damage being in the country, and it is said that every house in its path was wrecked. All the surgeons in Pryor Creek were called to the country, and it is known that many people have broken limbs and serious bruises, six being dangerously wounded near Choteau.

It is reported that three were killed at Fairland, and that the town was practically wiped out, but this cannot be verified, as all telegraph and telephone wires are down. The Western Union and the M. K. & T. Railroad have lost three miles of wire at Choteau. The poles have been blown away and cannot be found.

The cyclone was witnessed by Dr. J. L. Blakemore and Robert Baugh, who were near Choteau. Ir appears to originate near Inola, narrowly missing that town, northeast to Choteau. When they saw it coming one ran to a storm cellar and the other to a plum thicket, where his legs locked around one tree and his arms around another. The roaring, whirling volume suddenly veered to the north and missed them by a hundred yards.

Truelove started to run to his storm cellar with his child. he was blown down and a wagon tongue struck him in the head, mashing his skull and ripping its way down his back. Mrs. Truelove did not get out of the house which was torn to pieces. Spokes were jerked out of the wheels of the wagon that killed Truelove and the wheels twisted to pieces. Great hailstones and a deluge of rain accompanied the cyclone and railroad traffic has been practically abandoned on lines crossed by the storm for twenty-four hours. A complete list of the dead and injured is not known.

Mrs. Frank Lamar was killed at Fairland. An Indian woman and her child, from Tahlequah, unknown, were killed. In the same vicinity a young man, name unknown, living in a cabin between Checotah and Fairland was blown a quarter of a mile from his home, struck a barb wife fence and was nearly cut in two. The house was demolished and the young man's father blown half a mile in the storm, but escaped alive.

Considerable damage was done at Broken Arrow, and two of the buildings in Fairland blown to pieces.

Lamar Family

Alan Bedingfield — 1 Feb 2006 2:50:27 GMT

I am searching for information on the Barney Lamar family of Richmond County,Georgia. One of his sons, Mirabeau Bolivar Lamar was my great grandfather. I believe that Barney Lamar was a child of Mack Lamar of SC and was descended from the Thomas Lamar line. My Grandmother, Laura Lucile Lamar Burch always stated that she had been born in Orangeburg, SC in 1889. Her father, Mirabeau Bolivar Lamar was born 31 Jan 1846 and died 08 Jun 1922 in Laurens County, GA. He married Maude Fannie Guedron. He is buried in the New Hope Cemetery in Laurens County. There is a CSA marker that states that he was in CO B, 10th GA REG. I have photos of marker. Any info on his family would be appreciated.

David Lamar-Spencer Co, Ind

LeolaJohnson17 — 9 May 2006 12:06:14 GMT

I am trying to trace more info on David Lamar, b. Aug14, 1815, Ind and Elizabeth Lamar of Spencer County, Ind. He is on the 1840 census NO TWP L, as is another Elizabeth, James, A.W., Benjamin, and William. Have also found land records for him. I believe he is related to the other Lamars of Spencer county.

Lamar/Lamarr

LeolaJohnson17 — 21 Oct 2007 7:20:26 GMT

Katie, One of David and Elizabeth's sons, Monroe, spelled Lamarr with two r's. It may very well be spelled that way, but all the records I have found show only one r. I think I have a signature from another son, James. I believe he spelled Lamar with one r.

Leola

Bolivar, MO

LeolaJohnson17 — 19 Oct 2007 12:48:18 GMT

My David and Elizabeth settled in Sullivan Cty,MO the North Central border of Missouri. Bolivar, Polk Cty is in the Southern counties (where John lived). I doubt that your Lamarr's are related closely (although they are probably all related somewhere in the line). I could not see any brothers named David in any of your lineage, but I commend you on all that you have found. It is certainly more than we have found, about 6 of us searching. They are such a mystery family and records are so few during the years pre-1870. If you run across a David, please let me know. One of David's sons did use the last name Lamarr. His name was Monroe. I could be entirely wrong in my assumptions. Thanks, Leola

Nancy Sarah Lamar

LeolaJohnson17 — 17 Oct 2007 3:34:25 GMT

I have not run across anyone named Montgomery in the states I have found my David and Elizabeth. David b.1815 and Elizabeth have children named Lucy, Malinda Ann, Sarilda Jane, Sarah, James Y, Almarine, Moses, Monroe, and possibly John (not confirmed yet)One document I found said she was mother of 10.

Did your Lamar/Montgomery stay in Tennessee? We suspect Tenn as the place of birth of David's father. We have not found his father yet. Usually several family members migrated together to a new location.

I have been unable to find the marriage record for Elijah/Barnet/Nathan Thomas Lamar. I spent the past 3 days at the Kentucky Archives, Kentucky Historical Society & the Filson society and could not find any of them. I searched the following Counties that they were known to have been: Mason, Fleming, Lewis/Nicholas and any counties nearby. There were no Lamars. I used various spellings too. What happened to the records? Could they have went to Ohio? Did the records burn? HELP!!
Nathan Thomas is my line. He married Louisa Moss and migrated to Indiana. NO, not Spencer County. But Clinton Co.
Their children then migrated to Vermilion Co, Illinois.
Any clues or help would be appreciated

James Lamar's Will 1816 Georgia

anthonylamar26 — 13 Jan 2002 5:25:47 GMT

I'm an African American "Lamar" whose 2nd great grandfather (Jim Lamar) came from plantations of THE LAMARS. I found him on the 1857 will of a John Lamar, son of James & Catherine Lamar. I have already ordered Catherine Lamar's will 1829, but I'm hoping I can track whether my ancestors came with the slave owners from Georgia. If I can obtain information from James Lamar's will 1816, Putnam County, Georgia, I'm sure I'll see. Is there anyone who can help.

G.T. Lamar, son of William S. and Rebecca Geer Lamar

lrjkats — 10 Jan 2007 3:12:07 GMT

Does anyone know where this child was in the 1850 and 1860 census. He could have been in Spencer or Perry County Indiana or maybe even with the Lamar's in Kentucky. He was born in 1846 or 1847, making him between 3 & 4 or 13 & 14, respectively in the census.

G. (George) T. Lamar, son of William S. Lamar and Rebecca Geer, born between 1846 and 1847. Some sites show him as dying on 12 October 1884, but this was a marriage date for his marriage to Elizabeth Jeffries/Jeffers, age 19, daughter of John, in Spencer County, Indiana. He was 36 years old. This was his third marriage.

There is another marriage for George T., son of William and Rebecca, in Warrick County, Indiana, 6 December,1882 to an Unknown. I am waiting for a copy of the License. This would have been his second marriage.

I believe that G.T. Lamar is my is my gg-grandfather. He went by the name of Thomas Lamar, and married my gg-grandmother, Elizabeth Cox, about 1866-1869, believe to be in Grayson County, Kentucky. Their marriage license has not been found. (The Grayson County courthouse has burned several times, the last being in the 1890's. I have been told there are not any existing marriage records prior to the last fire.) Thomas and Elizabeth are found in the 1870 Butler County, Kentucky census in the household of William Cardwell. On 30 September, 1871, G.T. Lamar signs as surety for John T. Johnson on the marriage bond for John Johnson to marry Evaline Cox Decker, sister of Elizabeth Lamar. He again signed as G.T. Lamar as a witness to the marriage ceremony on 1 October 1871. Elizabeth Lamar signed, as witness, the consent written by Emaline Decker to the County Clerk to issue a license for her to marry John Johnson.

G.T. and Elizabeth had three children within an 8 year period. The first, Charles William, was, I believe, named after Thomas' and Elizabeth's fathers. The second child, was a daughter, Matilda Elizabeth "Lizzie" (my great-grandmother), and the third child, a son named Powell, (probably a connection to the Spencer-Perry County Indiana Powells). After the birth of her third child , Elizabeth is admitted to the asylum in Hopkinsville and is believed to have died there before 1900. Thomas returned to Indiana before 1880 and abandoned his children in Kentucky. They were brought up by two different families but were never adopted. I believe that this was G.T. Lamar's first marriage.

I would like to find out when this George T. Lamar died and where he is buried.

Does anyone have anything at all, good or bad, any possibilities ...George T. has been a problem for 30 years. Anything would be appreciated.

Thanks, Linda J.

Mirabeau B. Lamar

roy — 11 Jan 2004 2:32:29 GMT

Mrs. L.Q.C. Lamar was a distant cousin of my ancestor.
Recently I learned that Judge L.Q.C. Lamar's brother, President Mirabeau B. Lamar of Texas, was very good friends and lived at times in the household of the Roberts family, whose house I own. The Lamars and Robertses were close in Putnam Co., GA, according to several biographies on M. B. Lamar, he lived with them in Cahawba, AL, in 1819-1820 and visited extensively throughout his life. According to the census, he is lived with Dr. Willis Roberts' son Joel Abbott Roberts & wife Mary Bolles Roberts in their Mobile, AL, home in 1850:

1850 census MOBILE, AL
household of J. A. and Mary ROBERTS
LAMAR, M. B., Mobile County, Mobile, page 405; M. B., 50, GA, Attorney

**************
Many books note M. B. Lamar's courtship of his second wife in the home of Mrs. John A. Settle of New Orleans in January 1851, but only a few books note that Mrs. Settle is the daughter of the late Dr. Willis Roberts. Some sources say the married in Galveston, others in New Orleans.

I haven't read most of the postings, but I've read enough to know that I have information which would help those of you looking for Lamars from GA, MS, TX, and FL. In 1907, Alexander Blair of Macon, GA did a family tree, going back to Thomas Lamar, a Huguenot, who arrived in America in 1685.
It provides names, hundreds of them, as you can imagine. You'd have to do more research to ascerrtain the birthdates,etc., but, it would provide a sequence, as in "John begat Sarah," which might be very helpful.

Emma S. Lamar, dau of Wm Bishop Lamar II (B6) m 1807

Margaret Quinlan — 26 Mar 2006 4:26:55 GMT

I believe William Bishop Lamar II's 5th child, Emma, may be my great grandmother. If so, she married Albert W. Miller in about 1872. They settled in Spencer, Iowa, although my grandmother, Emma Katheleen Miller, was born in Wahoo, Nebraska in 1886. Emma K. married Irving Carroll Hastings in 1872, and he practiced law in Garner, Iowa. They had one son, Charles Albert Hastings, who married Ruth Jean Lightner in 1941, and practiced law in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. My sister, Carolyn, and I are Ruth and Chuck's two children. We believe other Lamar siblings were in Spencer for a while with Emma and Albert...my sister has more information about that.
We are fairly new to this and have not found much information connecting Emma S. Lamar and Albert W. Miller to their families in Maryland. Do you have any additional information to support this relationship? Carolyn's e-mail: cjhast@med.umich.edu

Margaret Janette LeMarr

Jody Davis-Wood — 28 Jun 2004 12:08:16 GMT

Hi Margaret was my great great grandmother I am trying to trace her line. We don't know much about her just that she married a James Nelson Stillwell and they had my Great Grandfather Shelby Washington Stillwell. I have very little other information. I belive that her father was Shelby Washington LeMar/Lamar.

If any one has any info that would help I am just getting started. I know where Margaret Janette Lemar Stillwell Lamb is buried.

Lamars on Ocmulgee River, Georgia

Nancy Bell — 28 Jun 2005 11:54:29 GMT

Does anyone have information on these two locations in Georgia on the Ocmulgee River, and which Lamars they were named for?

1) Lamar's Fishery, Land Dist. 7, in original Baldwin, now Twiggs County. It is noted on an 1828 map as being on the east side of the Ocmulgee River, below Macon. Land plats and surveyor notes make reference to a Zachariah Lamar
owning and purchasing a number of pieces of land in originally Wilkinson, Baldwin and Bibb Counties. (Which Zachariah Lamar?)

2) Lamar's Shoal-Lamar's Ferry- Lamar's Mill, Land District 14 in Original Monroe County, Georgia.

Jeremiah A. Lamar Information

T. W. Jones — 26 May 2005 9:48:33 GMT

I am trying to determine whether Jeremiah A. Lamar (born about 1825 in Georgia, the son of Jeremiah Lamar and Susan Rhymes) is the same individual as my great, great, grandfather.

My great, great grandfather was Jeremiah Lamar. I know that he married Lucinda S. Calloway on May 29, 1851 in Montgomery, Alabama. I know that they had at least three children:
1) Henry Clayton “Hal” Lamar (1854-1934)
m. Rebecca Hortense Meriwether

2) Mary Lamar (1861-??)

3) Thomas Cowles Lamar (1864-1908)
m. May Hooper

I believe that he served in Goldwaithe’s Artillery Battery during the Civil War. He enlisted as a private in 1861 and left the service as a private in 1863 (possibly wounded at Chicamauga).

Any information about Jeremiah A. Lamar would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

LaMar Blackburn connection?

lmwalton_1 — 25 Apr 2005 1:22:32 GMT

My 3xggrandfather's middle name was LaMar. As I haven't uncovered his parents, it's possible his mother's maiden name was LaMar, or that it was another family surname. James LaMar Blackburn was born in Ohio about 1809, married Susanna St. Clair in 1837 in Cass County, IN. Died 1850.

Does he fit into a branch of anyone's LaMar family tree?

Henry Lamor, Ninety Six Dist. SC - 1772

From “Laurens and Newberry Counties South Carolina: Saluda and Little River Settlements 1749-1775; Neighborhood Maps, and Abstracts of Colonial Surveys and Memorials of Land Titles” by Jesse Hogan Motes III and Margaret Peckham Motes; 1994, Southern Historical Press, Inc., Greenville, South Carolina.

Section 8: Little River Above Mudlick Creek

Page 123:

Survey for John Caldwell pursuant to precept dated 2 June 1772; a resurvey of his tract of land on Little River in the District of Ninety Six, originally granted for 700 acres and a surplus of 550 acres. (The plat map contains the following bounding tracts: SE by James Johnston, Golding’s land and Hugh Caldwell; SW by Peter Strosher, Wm. Neely and Martha Moats (see note at end of this abstract); S by Mary Seirs and Samuel Neely; NW by William Neely, Gilbert Turner and Wm.

The original plat manuscript (Loose Colonial Plats, filed under “John Caldwell”, SC Archives) shows Matha (not Martha) Moote as the bounding name, which most likely refers to Mathew Motes, who owned this bounding tract.
