Married Peter Paul Hawryluk (a Princeton graduate) on Feb.20, 1960, in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida They moved to Philadelphia for 2-1/2 years and then to Miami. Florida, where Pete was employed as electrical engineer for General Electric. Ann continued her schooling at the University of Miami.
"The following account is written by Ann Moore Hawryluk, the daughter of Jewett Lammon Moore and James Edward Moore:
Here is a brief history of the Lammon lineage from its first American beginnings. John D. Lammon, (Jewett's first cousin), generously provided this information in January 1999. He has a wealth of knowledge concerning the family history, which was handed down from one generation to another. John D. is a great reference and can be contacted at P.O. Box 696, Jackson, Alabama, 36545. His phone number is (334) 246-4493. His lovely wife is Melanie. He has two sons living in the Tuscaloosa, Alabama, area who are probably very informed of the family history, as well. Here is my recollection of what he told me and what I already knew of my mother's parents and siblings.
"Sometime during the last quarter of the 18th Century, my great-great-great Grandfather, Duncan Lammon was the first ancestor to reside in America. He was a young man approximately 26 to 28 years old when he committed some infraction in his native country of Scotland. Fearing the King's wrath and possible beheadment, he hid out one night and stowed away on a ship which ultimately brought him to America (specifically North Carolina). Before fleeing Scotland he confided his plan of escape to his parents who admonished him to always remember to name the first born sons in subsequent generations, Duncan, after the King. We don't have a great deal of information about this ancestor other than he married after his arrival in America and had many offspring one of which was his first son, Duncan, who was born in 1792. [Actually, Duncan had an older brother, Daniel, who was born in 1787. - EBL] This second Duncan is my great-great Grandfather. The original Duncan did later learn from his kinsfolk in his native Scotland that the infraction that he perceived to be great enough to merit risking his life to escape to America was later deemed very minor and only a minimum penalty would have applied. The descendents of the original Duncan are scattered throughout the country including factions in Alabama, Michigan, Ohio, upper NY State, Pennsylvania, Idaho, and Texas.
"My great-great grandfather, Duncan, as noted, was born in 1792 and was of the first generation with its beginnings here in America. He married a woman named Ann. He settled in Alabama through the most extraordinary circumstance, He was on a wagon train that had stopped for camp in the Ozark area in 1833. On that particular night the " stars fell on Alabama" and it was such a momentous and astonishing event that those who were gathered there were certain that it was surely the second coming of Christ. So bedazzled by the occurrence he decided to settle there considering, I presume, that it had been a sign from God. He and Ann are buried in Ozark, Alabama, at the Post Oak Methodist Cemetery (not to be confused with the Post Oak Baptist Cemetery).
"This second Duncan and his wife Ann had several children. John Duncan Lammon was their first born son though they had daughters preceding him. John Duncan is my great-grandfather and was born in 1839. He and his wife had nine children and, Daniel, my grandfather was their seventh. John Duncan subsequently joined the Confederate Army and was assigned to the 6th Alabama Infantry, in Company B. We do not know his rank. He is buried in the Hartford, Alabama, City Cemetery along with MANY of our Lammon ancestors. There is a very tall monument that marks his grave in that cemetery which my cousin, John D. Lammon, has in recent years had restored (the base had deteriorated).
"My grandfather is Daniel Lammon. He married my grandmother, Beatrice Bailey, and they had four children, Ruth, Inez, D.C., and my mother Jewett, who was the youngest. Ruth was born in 1901; Inez was born in 1905; D.C.'s birth year is uncertain but he is older than Jewett who was born June 3, 1910. Daniel and Beatrice raised their children in the Slocomb, Alabama and Graceville, Florida, areas. Daniel was an accomplished carpenter. He worked at a lumber mill in northwest Florida during part of his life. He also built houses. Daniel Lammon is buried in DeFuniak Springs, Florida. He died in the mid-1940's."
Ann Moore Hawryluk.
The following note from Ann:
Ann Lois Moore Hawryluk was born in Alice, TX (although birth certificate says Falfurrius, TX) on March 20,1939, the youngest child of Jewett Bell Lammon Moore and James Edward Moore, Sr., a Presbyterian minister. Ann was educated in Florida schools from elementary through university levels. She graduated from Leon High School in Tallahassee, in 1957. Initially, she attended FSU beginning in Jan.1958. During her sophomore year she married and subsequently, due to her husband's two separate career assignments in Florida, she was able to attend University of Miami and later University of North Florida where she graduated with a BA degree in 1975.
On February 20, 1960, in Ft. Walton Beach, FL, Ann married 1st Lt. Peter Paul Hawryluk, a 1955 graduate of Princeton University. They immediately moved to Philadelphia where Peter had just resumed his sales engineering career with General Electric Co. that had been interrupted by a 3 1/2 year military stint. Peter's upward moving management assignments in GE took them to various locations throughout the US for the next twenty five years. Ann was an enthusiastic and supportive "corporate wife" devoting much time and effort to client entertaining and hosting extensive customer related events domestically and abroad. Except for a three year period when she taught school, Ann was a full time homemaker, active volunteer and an involved mother during Peter's career with GE. The role she most proudly relished was that of mother to Jetta Ann (born Oct. 4, 1963 in Miami, FL and Peter Kent (born Oct. 15, 1968 in Hartford, CT).
Ann and Peter always shared a side interest in real estate and began land acquisition early in their marriage continuing throughout. This interest evolved into the formation of Balamor Development Co. (in the early 1990's). Balamor specializes in the building of residential communities and all of the Hawryluk's are involved in its operation directly or indirectly.
When Kent (the youngest child) went away to college in 1986, Peter founded InterTech Resources, a power semi-conductor distributorship, and named Ann President. Ann has remained in that role since. She accepts no claim to technical knowledge, but was well grounded in general business principles having learned much from her mother's tutelage and experience in that area. Peter has always remained the real muscle in the technical end of the business and is the constant and supportive consultant in that regard. Peter and Ann are the very proud grandparents of their daughter's children, Kinsley Tait Bushonville, born
August 22, 1994 and Hadley Remaee Bushonville born April 19, 1999, both in Chicago, IL.
