Membership in
the Association is open to any person descended from, or married
to, anyone of the surname Nims. Individuals wishing more
information about the Association may write the secretary or
treasurer at the addresses shown on the Home Page. With the
completion of the foundation volume, the goal is to continue
collecting family data and
publishing
records in our files. NFA has established a service & printing
charge for publishing individual branches requested by our
members. Click the "Send E-Mail" icon on this page and request
details about how to proceed with your request for family
genealogical information. We have considerable data on lines in
the four family branches. At this time, our archives show
approximately 30,210 names in the John line, over 19,033 in the
Ebenezer line, and about 23,498 in our Thankful branch. The
Abigail line has only 8,500 names so far, but we do have a great
deal of material still to add to our data base.
David Nims, Grandson of Godfrey Nims
All
descendants of Godfrey Nims are encouraged to participate in the
Nims Family Association and in the gathering of family data. If
you have not yet sent in material to the Historian, we urge you to
submit as much data as you are willing to, including anecdotes,
photos, and genealogical information. Here are some areas we have
found helpful in building our files.
- Your name
- Date and place of birth
- Parents' names
- Line of descent from John, Ebenezer, Thankful or
Abigail
( if known )
- Phone number
- Mailing address
- Name of spouse, & date and place of his/her birth
- Date & place of your marriage
- List of children, with dates & places of birth for each
We appreciate
your contribution of data to Nims family files. It is only with
the unselfish help from all of our "cousins" that we can continue
to develop the wonderful story of our family.
Sincerely,
Nims Family Association
Board of Directors
