Synopsis
Excerpt from History of the Hammond Family: An Address Delivered by Mrs. Laura Webb-Peploe at Hammond Cemetery Gambrill's, MD. On Flag Day, June Fourteenth Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-Two If, in attempting to give you a condensed history of the Hammond family, I should begin with a valued and honored Norman knight who helped to place William the Conqueror upon the throne of England, and if I should give a long line of brilliant names including bishops, abbots, soldiers, statesmen, two officers who went with Raleigh on his gold-hunting expedition to Guinea, and if I should mention a Hammond who was a physician to James I, and another of the name who was Chaptain to Charles I, and a Master of the Rolls, and end by telling you of a stout-souled Hammond who, at the risk of his life and loss of his fortune, sheltered his King, Charles I, when driven from the throne of England - all of them English ancestors of the Hammonds - it might be objected that the matter, while interesting is scarcely relevant for this occasion; and that it is from America and not from England that the history must come. Fortunately, however, to suggest the early history of Maryland and Virginia is to suggest the name of Hammond and their kinsmen.
