Revolutionary War hero, Phillip Hamman, and his wife, Christina Cook,

its Bi-Annual Family Reunion in Lexington, Kentucky July 25-27, 2008.
Hamman/Hammond(s) cousins will be descending upon Lexington from Alabama,
Arizona, California, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and,

other states.
Headquarters for the reunion will be the Four Points Hotel by Sheraton, 1938
Stanton Way, Lexington, KY. Reservations must be made by June 30, 2008 to
get the special Phillip Hamman Group Rate. Visitors may check in as early as
July 23 and get the same special room rate. When you call for reservations
be sure to tell them that you are part of the Hamman Reunion group and want
the special group rate.
Brian Ann Wells Arnett of Versailles, KY is coordinating the reunion and
could use some help from any of the Hamman cousins in the Lexington, KY
area. For more information, contact Doris Brown Rose, President of the
Association, by Email: rose0303@att.net

events, but reservations for the Saturday night banquet should be made by
those not staying at the hotel. You can contact Doris Brown Rose at the

Phillip Hamman and Christina Cook lived for almost 40 years, followed by a
group meeting at 7:00p.m. Friday night for the sharing of newly revised
family group sheets for each of Phillip and Christina's children. Saturday
morning at 9:00 a.m. will be the business meeting for the election of new
officers, followed by the sharing of new family history discoveries from
members and guests. A highlight of the reunion is always the banquet on
Saturday night. The special guest speaker at the Saturday night banquet will
be Charles E. Darnell, descendant of Henry Cook, brother of Christina Cook
Hamman.
The reunion is also open to all Hamman, Hammond(s), or any other variation
of the spelling of that surname, even if you are not a descendant of Phillip
and Christina.
