<\/a><\/p>\nI researched this family many years ago, so it would be good to take a fresh look.<\/p>\n
The Hoars lived in the Taunton or Dighton area. I believe that Dighton used to be part of Taunton.<\/p>\n Sprry’s tree goes back to his paternal grandmother which agrees with the ThruLines up to that point:<\/p>\n I think that sprry will match up with my tree. Here is Luella in 1900 in Bingham, Michigan:<\/p>\n Here is Bingham:<\/p>\n Luella’s father was Adelbert who was a farmer.<\/p>\n This is likely Adelbert sitting down. Here is Adelbert in 1855 as a young child with his father George and family living in Madison, New York:<\/p>\n Here is George in 1850:<\/p>\n My guess is that George’s elderly parents George and Prudence were living next door to him.<\/p>\n At this point, I would like to look more at the top of the ThruLine:<\/p>\n Here is an excerpt I found at Ancestry:<\/p>\n This is from a book called, A record of descendants of Hezekiah Hoar of Taunton, Massachusetts : with an historical introduction.<\/p>\n This fills in the blanks.<\/p>\n This is at the limits that the ThruLines go to which is a 6th cousin relationship. I should note that the match between Joyce and sprry is listed as a peternal one and I match Joyce on her maternal (Annie Louisa Hartley) side. So the DNA appears to be saying one thing and the genealogy another. This is probably because Joyce has colonial Massachusetts ancestors on her paternal side also.<\/p>\n For singin and donald, I only have to show a connection up to James Hoar. Singin shows two Hoards in her tree:<\/p>\n I notice that with singin, the match is on Joyce’s maternal side:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Here is Agnes living in Minnesota in 1920 with her family. Her father was post master and was born in New York:<\/p>\n Here is a younger Hiram in 1850:<\/p>\n As suggested, by the ThruLines, Hiram’s father is William. Here is Stockbridge, where the farm was:<\/p>\n Here is some interesting information on William at Findagrave.com:<\/p>\n As William was quite well documented, I will accept the hints for his parents at Ancestry.<\/p>\n At this point, I hope that there is a reference to James and Enos Hoard in a published book. Here is where he is:<\/p>\n Enos is apparently the youngest son of James.<\/p>\n Next, I add singinheart to my Hoar DNA Tree:<\/p>\n Joyce and Donald are said to match on Joyce’s paternal side also. Donald takes his tree back on the Hoard\/Hoar Line;<\/p>\n I am tempted to accept Donald’s tree as is. For one reason, his grandmother is mentioned in the Hoar Book:<\/p>\n That grandmother being Laura Adelia Foot.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nJoyce and Sprry<\/h2>\n
