THURMAN/THURMOND Locations In The US
You may just be surprised!! You can even access the USGS Query page from here.

	THIS IS THE TOTALFAM DATABASE! It has ALL of the individuals merged from ALL of the following databases. The individual databases are no longer on-line to prevent duplication within the WorldConnect pages. All of the links are now aimed at the TOTALFAM on-line database. Check it out!!!

	The LORENFAM database consists of the families found in my own quest for family personal ancestry. LOREN data relates only to MY immediate family genealogy. (Not ALL of these contained families are directly related, but ARE connected in some fashion.)

	THIS IS THE DATABASE TO LOOK IN FOR THE ALLEN GRANBERRY THURMAN DATA! The THURMFAM database consists of data I have collected or that has been submitted to me on the THURMAN surname, but I have yet to link to my Father OR the other databases. This is the THURMER Lineage! It IS of interest to note that one can actually get to General George Washington, The Father of our Country in this database! (I am amazed too!)

	The OTHERFAM database consists of THURMAN and related families that have yet to "match" into one of the other three databases. Not ALL of the individuals found here are directly related. They are not necessarily connected together in any fashion. This database is the "catch-all" for THURMAN's submitted that have yet to find another home.

	The THOROFAM database consists of data which is a compilation of the individuals identified in the text "The THOROMAN's Of Adams County Ohio". My personal thanks to Edward Loren Thurman (no relation that I can prove...YET!) for providing me the baseline information making this addition to THURMAN's QUEST possible!

	BRITFAM TRANS-ATLANTIC CONNECTION MADE 6 FEB 99 The BRITFAM database represents 11 generations from THURMAN's Quest contributors in England, which are the ancestors of Edward Moroni THURMAN. The text, "The Descendants of Edward Moroni THURMAN" by Mrs. Merna Thurman Madden is in this database. My gracious Thanks to Mr. Kirk Thurman for providing me a copy, and to Mrs. Madden for granting me copyright approval to use her text.

	The LINDAFAM database consists of the BROWN/WAHLGREN and related families that are the primary lines in Linda's family. Hatfield, Teer, Hudson, Perkins, Harper, Click, Meneley, Richie and Green. ALL of the individuals found here are directly related. The HATFIELD/McCOY "feud" members are a part of this related surname structure through Linda's "HARPER" connection. View them all in TOTALFAM.

	An"OBITUARY" List has been created so you can have the obituary of a family member listed. A seperate "CEMETERY LIST", in a separate page, lists the name and location of the cemetery where our ancestor's are buried. This Cemetery list includes months of research to identify M A N Y Cemetery's where THURMAN's are interred. Email me your personal family OBIT or CEM particulars to have them added! (Many thanks, once again, to Ms. Cynthia C. Griebel for this original suggestion.)

	A "COUSIN'S" LIST exists so you can list your own Name, Email, Homepage (if you have one), Senior THURMAN Ancestor/Connection, and the City/State in which you live included for sharing with others researching your line. Send me an EMail with this information

Hopefully these Surname listings will benefit all who seek their ancestors here. Please let Linda & I know if you have a "hit". We can be:
