Who was the father of James Ham (Hamm), ca 1756-1819 (Spartanburg,
SC), m. Avarilla (various spellings)??
Traditionally, he was the son of William Hamm (1716-1791).
But on 18 Sept 1788, a land contract between James Ham, "the
lawful heir of Jeremiah Ham deceased of Spartanburg County South
Carolina" sold to William Ham (James's brother?) 200 acres in
Newberry County for 10 Pounds sterling. The contract was
signed by James Ham, his seal, and "Avarilla Ham, her mark."
James Ham administered the estate of Jeremiah Ham, Abbeville
District, SC on 9 Apr 1875.
James's father was William? or Jeremiah?

I have ancestors by the name of Thomas Ham, b. 1819 in
Charleston/Georgetown area of SC, descendants prove numerous and
were married into the SWINTON and ROBERTS families. I would
appreciate any information on this area and would like to be
placed in the SC area. We do find evidence of Hams in VA circa
1720.
Any sort of info would be helpful. thanks! Marcia Roberts

Too my knowledge all of this is accurate based on my research.
However, I am not able to trace solid
information of Samuel Hamm's wife. Nor can I find data
representing William Hamm of Hamm Germany
and his father / mother. I am not sure whether William of 1716
father was of English or German descent.
