My father, William Taylor Ham Jr., mother Lucy Goode and father Joseph Hutchinson Ham, grew up in Norfolk Va.
His maternal grandmother was Anna Gamble Ham. He had a (great?) grandfather William Ham who ran a cutter for the early coast guard in the Revolutionary War, and documents to his name signed by Washington and Jefferson were donated to the Virginia Historical Society(?). I have copies. His mother was a DAR and her records are there.
He was a world renowned scientist and I am amazed that he is not mentioned.
