| Pamela Zeller | Ojai, California | USA | Hello, I stumbled across your lovely photos of your cruise to Alaska and in one picture it showed that you had room D701. I am going on a cruise to Alaska next year and we have room 727. My question to you is: Is the sofa bed a double or single? We will be going with my son and his wife and I am wondering if one will have to sleep on an overhead bunk. Would love it if you could let me know. Also your web page and picture are lovely.
[Hello Pamela! You can see pictures of our cabin on the first day - before (here) and after (here). So yes, somebody will have to sleep on an overhead bunk... Hope you enjoy your cruise as much as we did!! - Adam Hems] | 10/18/2011 11:00 PM |

| Normand Dupre | Ketchikan, Alaska | US | Adam, I am the editor of a weekly shopper in Ketchikan and I know this is a long shot but I was searching for pics of the Zip Line here in Ketchikan for our Recreation Guide for 2011 and found your fantastic shot of your girls in Google. Any chance we could use it, possibly on the cover? The bad news is we have no (zero) budget for purchasing art, but I'd be happy to send you some copies of the issue. We print about 10,000 and give it away for free. We make our money on the advertising only. Anyway, your photography is great and even if you don't give permission, it was a pleasure viewing the photos! The image is 9408872_fNjB. | 2/28/2011 7:00 PM |

I came across your site whilst researching the Hems family history. I have Hems in my own tree, and my great grandmother was a Hems. I am part of a group of people who are researching the Hems name and we have a website which may be of interest to you at http://www.hemsearch.juxon.net/index.php
You may already be aware of this site, but if not and you wish to join our group, then feel free to contact the administrator on the website homepage.
Thank you for sharing you site, it is very well laid out. Regards. | 10/3/2010 2:35 PM |

| Nancy Coleman Young | New Jersey | USA | My paternal grandmother was Amy Coleman who was born in Birmingham England in about 1886. She had a sister, Vera, who was born in approximately 1887. Amy married my grandfather, Walter L. Sims in approx. 1910 in the US. My grandfather was born in about 1887. She and my grandfather both immigrated to the US when they were 2 years old. I know my grandfather lived in New Hampshire when he came to this country. I am not sure where Amy first lived, although I think it might have been New Hampshire. Amy and Walter had 3 sons: Robert (born 1910, the oldest and my father), Russell (middle son) and Everett (1920 and the youngest). Hems was the maiden name of either my maternal great-grandmother or my paternal great-grandmother. I have very little genealogical information about the Sims family and even less for Hems. I came across your website while I was searching for Sims information and decided to share my information with you. I am 60 years old and I can truly say that I have never met anyone with the last name of Hems! | 7/1/2010 1:00 PM |
| Nancy Coleman Young | New Jersey | USA | I forgot to mention that both Amy Coleman and Walter Sims were born in Birmingham, England. | 7/1/2010 1:00 PM |

Good to hear from you, Merry Christmas!! Not many Hems's out hear in the west, there are quite a few back in New York where I grew up and went to school. I will give you a little background on the Hems's from NY and there may be a connection because my dad's father came from Leeds and my Irish mother, Anna Marie Egan, here parents came from County Cork in Ireland and imigrated to NY in the late 1800's.

| Ceri Slade nee Hems | Exeter | UK | Out of curiosity I put in the search word Hems and look what I found. I was born a Hems from a family originally from Kingswinford in Staffordshire in the Midlands. Have you thought of creatinga family tree for your site? | 5/14/2004 5:10 PM |
| Ella of Frell | Montreal | Canada | You have two GORGEOUS daughters and I'm not surprised in the slightest that they're both in G&T classes. Looking forward to more pictures (despite the fact that I'm a total stranger) | 5/1/2004 2:23 AM |
| Martha and Maisy Maxwell | Boston, MA | USA | Wow! My daughter and I found your site by accident, looking up Palm Trees on Google (for homework...) Thanks for letting us peek into your world! We thought Jade was the oldest of 3 sisters until we read on! You look so young! ~~~Martha | 4/17/2004 11:15 PM |
| Mike Hems | Essex | U.K | I was very interested to see your website. I would love to move to Florida one day !! It's good to read about someone who has already made their USA dream reality ! Especially with such a brilliant surname. Good Luck Mike. H | 4/17/2004 12:40 PM |
| Heather Bissonnette | Halifax, Nova Scotia | Canada | Hello to the Hems Family! Found your site purely by accident (looking for info on face painting!), don't ask me how you folks came up! I was impressed with the site and all the photos, but it did occur to me that you haven't much privacy with all your pics posted as they are. Regardless, it didn't stop me from vicariously enjoying so many of the fun things in your life. Thanks for sharing... Hugs to all... | 4/16/2004 10:28 PM |
| Chris 'n Claire Hems | | England | Hey Bro, Sis and nieces, just browsing your birthday pikkies to make sure you have more wrinkles than me! Looks a great cake. See you all for the 2004 trip soon... | 4/14/2004 7:52 PM |
| Salman Aziz | Centreville, VA | USA | I found your website searching information on BroadVision 5.5. It has been years I have worked with this stuff and now I have to appear for a job interview. You have a great resume and very similar objectives as mine. But I have no exposure to the .NET and very much live on the other side of the fence called J2EE. Great family and wish you prosperity and good luck. | 3/30/2004 12:04 PM |
| Chris Adam | Calgary, Alberta | Canada | Hi! | 3/20/2004 3:27 AM |
| Jorge Luis Magana | Anaheim, CA | USA | Congratulations!!! All of you are a beautiful family. I was looking for a company HEMS when I saw your page. What caught my attention was that you have two grils named as I do you were born the same year I was. Congratulatios once again! | 3/1/2004 10:15 PM |
| Tino Gonzalez | Galveston, TX | USA | Thanks for visiting our beautiful island and bragging about it. | 2/14/2004 3:02 AM |
| John Hems | Brighton | England | What a suprise to fine more Hems' out there. We have a fairly small network of Hems' here in the UK mainly originating from Stourbridge in the Midlands. | 2/11/2004 11:13 AM |
| Roger Hems | Liverpool | England | Just arrived at this excellent site. Obviously led here by a Google search for Hemses! Our 'Hems'history knowledge is very limited indeed and I would like to know more. My father - William John Leslie Hems was born in 1901 (into a family which finally grew to 13) in Kingswinford in the West Midlands of the UK. There is a reference on the internet to his grandfather (I think) who was the publican of The Little Pig. My father was a crystal glasscutter (alongside several brothers) and so was his father. One of my father's brothers -Reg - became a tree surgeon in the West Country and he claimed that the Hems family had been traced back to a stonemason who moved to the UK in the 18th century! | 2/10/2004 10:22 AM |
| Kim Hems (maiden name) | Toronto | Canada | My maiden name is Hems. My grandfather was born in Birmingham, UK, in 1895 and he had many siblings. His first name was Frank. Are there any relatives? I am keen on researching our family tree. | 2/7/2004 6:16 PM |
| Victor John Hems | Tokyo | Japan | I have noticed that my e-mail address was mistyped. Now it is crrected so I look forward to hearing from you. | 1/27/2004 12:09 PM |

Hello, My name is Niltiac. I live in a small town in Southern Lithuania. I love your family! I wish I could eat at a Denny's someday. You have not put any pictures on your site for long time, are you O.K.? Would you ever consider an exchange student or a nanny? I love children and flamingoes. Please write me on your site. [Hello Niltiac! You are correct it has been a while since any new photos got posted - sorry about that! Your entry here prompted me to upload the latest photos today - hope you enjoy them! Thanks for your concern! :-) - Adam]

My husband and I are thinking of getting a vacation place of our own in Galveston. In fact, we'll be checking out the area next weekend. Any insight into the area would be appreciated. Thanks for sharing the albums. lp | 11/4/2003 5:42 AM |

| George Pahno | Norfolk, VA | USA | You have a very good photo album website with lots of pictures. My favorite pictures are the ones that were taken on the playgrounds, especially the two April 11, 2003 pictures of Chris showing his agility by climbing up the fireman's pole at the park in Stafford, Texas. Your kids Jasmine and Daisy have shown their athletic abilities on the playgrounds, such as swinging on the monkey bars and going down the slides. Can they climb up (and slide down) the poles? Please continue to add more photos (and perhaps some videos) to your website, especially of the kids playing at the playgrounds. Thank you very much, and keep up the good work! | 9/12/2003 1:19 PM |
| Trista and Alan | Manfield, TX | USA | We bumped into your website while searching for information on Taste Addison. We enjoyed glancing at some of your albums. Your website is very user friendly.

Great resume! Safe Diving. | 4/20/2003 7:29 PM |
