Dameron-Dameron Family Association Page
An
unofficial
site relating to the Dameron-Damron Family Association
An organization studying the genealogy of the Dameron and Damron family of the United States of America.
Most who carry the name, in
either spelling, descend from
Lawrence Dameron who
received a land grant in Northumberland County, Virginia, in 1652. Lawrence and his wife,
Dorothy, along with their children, were the first documented Damerons to come from
England to settle in Virginia. Lawrence (1615-1657) married Dorothy (?) (????-c1691) before
1644.
Children: Bartholomew, George, Thomas, Lawrence,
Dorothy
(Note: Most Dameron-Damron families in the United States descend
from Lawrence who apparently came from Suffolk County, England. There are some Dammerons who came
from Germany.)
Damron DNA

DDFA
Board Vacancies
The
DDFA board has vacancies that must be filled soon.
This is a chance to take part in our quarter-century
old organization. Very few have expressed an
interest which is unfortunate if DDFA is to continue
to function efficiently.
Board
members should be able to "attend" a monthly online
meeting. (AOL's AIM is used for the
meetings. It is a free IM service permitting
the board to open a chat room for online meetings.)
At the moment, this meeting is on the second
Wednesday at 8:00 EST each month. However, the time
can be adjusted when necessary.
Board members should be able to participate in some
manner rather than simply joining the chat room
meeting. Essentially, the board is ultimately
responsible for the publication of the newsletter,
managing the finances, arranging an annual
meeting/reunion of the membership, and generally
keeping DDFA functioning and moving forward.
DDFA
members are interested in the board, please contact
a board members directly by clicking a board
member's name on the list of board members on the
membership page.
Note:
This site is NOT financed by the DDFA! It is a personal effort that must be accepted
as such. Therefore the DDFA should not carry the responsibility for its contents.
Thanks.--Charles C.Chaney. |
