I have just completed a major expansion of my on-line genealogy and ancestry, which includes thousands of families in Hancock and Washington Counties. Your members and other researchers may find it of interest:

Hello Albert,
I just discovered your online genealogy and found my name in it – Jeannine G. Hall. However, the birth and death dates are incorrect. I was born July 17, 1940. And obviously I am still going strong. 😁 Hope this helps. My roots are of the Soper family.

I am looking for information on my ancestory, Andrew G. Collins, born 1821 in Grainger County Tennessee. He married Lucinda Nicely (1821 – 1888). I think there might be some relationships between the Collins families of Grainger County and the Collins families of Hancock county.
Sincerely, Chris
Do you know where i can find a picture, if there is one, of the Kings Daughters Hospital in Bay St Louis, MS?
I have received 3 weird messages (emails) supposedly from HCGS that appear to be scams. Have you been hacked? They seem to be advertising apps or websites – black bet, luxchecker, and gastric.
Now I realize that they used Hancock Genealogical as the sender name. So be on the lookout for these scam emails.
Hello
I am looking for information regarding my grandmother
Mary J McInnis. I believe she was born in Bucksport Maine in 1888.
She married my grandfather Thomas L. Forster and moved to Waltham, Ma
She died when my dad was 11 years old and sadly, I cannot locate any further info on her.
Would be grateful for any info you may have. Thank you, Sally Kelley
