Joseph Anderson was born about 1750 in New Bern District, NC and died in June 1848, in Thomas County Ga.
Prior to 1780, Josephy moved to South Carolina. He enlisted in the South Carolina. He enlisted in the SC militia in 1780 at Long Bluff on the Great Pee Dee River,Darlington, SC, under Captain William Standare in Colonel Bolton's regiment under General Francis Marion.

I was just sent an email saying that John Anderson who married Elizabeth Lewis was Buried in Anderson Cemetery in Bulloch County. I have the cemetery book that has 2 Anderson Cemetery and both has my Anderson ancestors. I have found some of John and Elizabeth's children in these cemetery's.
I have a John Anderson
It has
b Jan. 22 1822
d Jan. 13 1864.
Death date could be correct but bd incorrect.

I have just started on the Anderson's and they are quite confusing.
Would appreciate additional info if you have any.
I hope to find more info when I go back to Ga. in the fall.
I would love to see that Bible. I knew Melton Anderson and I know he has one son still living.
