Joseph Attaway b 1755 d abt 1845

sharon_brogdon — 2009-06-27 15:25:51Z

Looking for proof of which Joseph Attaway in SC and GA that was father of my William (also known brother David) who went to TN abt 1830 was married to Nicey Draper. Information I have on Joseph is that he was in Rev War at battle of Cowpens and was injured. I need his wife's name to separate the many Josephs located in this area at the time. I'm guessing he had to have been born between 1755 and 1765 to have been in that battle and that he died before 1850 census. I have several possible wives for the many Josephs, i.e. Jane Wilcox, Edith Nations,Goolspring Unknown.

WALLACE FAMILY

sswillen — 2009-06-07 07:39:30Z

I am researching the Wallace family. I have proofs of them living in Pendleton District in 1820.My ancestor was Wilson Wallace and his wife was Sarah Jones. Research has shown that his property was purchased from Martha Wallace . At this time, I have not located her Maiden name or husband's name. I was wanting to see if James Wallace was married during his time in S.C. before removing from the state. I would appreciate any consideration given to my inquiry. Thank you very much.

SC Artisans and Mechanics Search

Wade_Fairey — 2009-03-19 20:20:56Z

To lovers of local history:

This 28 year project was created to collect data on individuals who worked in SC between 1750-1866. Of particular interest are artisans who served as a; carpenter, mechanic, stone or brick mason/cutter, plasterer, brick maker, blacksmith, hewer, joiner, staircase builder, or those who built doors, windows, and mantles. As of 2009, over 13,500 persons and companies are listed in the collection. Each of our counties was highly influential and wealthy during the period and has left great histories. I know that there are architectural examples remaining and data of importance that would be useful in documenting artisans from each county and surrounding area. The database collects basic facts; names, dates, locations, birth/death dates, examples of their work, etc. Census data has already been posted but additions/corrections are welcome as are your questions. If you know of someone in your circle that may also have this type of data, please share.

One source of data is church histories that tell who, when and for how much the house of worship was constructed. Just send the information in a written text and we will be sure to credit it appropriately and share as requested. Don't assume anything we need your assistance if all of SC is to be given ample recognition. And remember to provide birth and death dates if they are available.

Respectfully, W.B. Fairey, Administrator

Last year when visiting the park, also asked the ranger some questions on the burial places. To my surprise, she seemed to be totally oblivious to the historical information. Like you I alwo would like to see an archeological study done for the graves. Acccording to another jailed person, he could see the graves being dug just outside his jailhouse window ... of that time. My ancestoral grandfather is in one of those graves.... Sam CLegg.

jano1932 — 2009-01-03 02:01:02Z

James McGowen and his wife Elizabeth (?) ran a Ferry on the upper Savannah. From his appraisal list it would also appear there was an inn. Their daughter, Elizabeth, married William Carithers of Abbeville June 22 1779 "at a fort on the Savannah" James McGowen, William Carithers, James, Robert, Samuel,Mathew,John Carithers were all REV War veterans..and lived in Abbeville..probably all related.
Would appreciate ANY INFORMATION about this family.

S.C. Marriages by Brent H. Holcomb

furuiyes — 2008-12-11 20:16:40Z

Does anyone have access to this book? I think it comes in 3 volumes. I'm looking for marriages for Charles Miles about 1775 and for his son Isaac Miles to Rossannah Hollenbeck 1799or 1800. Charles also had 14 daughters. I think they were in Newberry county at some time. The daughters marriages would have been in the late 1790s-early 1800s.

Thanks, Sally

furuiyes — 2008-11-11 19:26:12Z

I am searching for the Samuel MILES and Thomas MILES families who were on the 1779 census records as living in the Old 96th District. I'm really looking for a son of one of the families named Charles who shows up as a married man in the 1790 census with 10 daughters.

Perhaps someone with access to the wills and probate book would be willing to do a look up for me.

Thanks, Sally

Re: Jones-Floyd families Old District 96 South Carolina

jones332 — 2008-10-08 03:03:44Z

Have you seen the book, "The Johns Connection" by: Helen Sides Dye. She has information on John & Ann Jones that came to SC Pee Dee River area in 1738 from the Welch Tract Baptist church of Delaware. Benjamin Jones and Enoch Jones were the two older boys of this family but their grandfather was David Jones and he had sons named David Jones. David & Esther Morgan Jones arrived in Delaware which was then Pennsylvania in 1710. Look to the Welch of Pennsylvania. Do you have a FTDNA or have a Jones from that line that can do the Y-DNA test? Join the Jones club and the test cost less.

Looking for STONE (Enoch or Cudbeth) 1784/5

ladee_bug — 2008-03-05 17:57:23Z

Parents: Cudbeth STONE (b: 1758, d: Jun 1844 Floyd Co, KY)

Married: 17 Jun 1784

Cudbeth was a revolutionary war patriot who enlisted in St. Mary's County, MD, fought at Cowpens; was wounded and left there in 1781. Married a local gal in 1784 and their first child is thought to be born in the area (Enoch).

Any information on this family would be most appreciated!
