My name is Porsha Drayton. My last name originates from my father, Edward Drayton. I don't have much information about his side of the family because he left us when i was seven and i have no contact with him. i do know that he was born on sullivan's island in South Carolina. i dont know whether they were from the west indies or not but it could be possible that they sailed here and ended up on an island and that island happened to be sullivan's island. i hope that i somewhat helped you. if not, im sorry and i wish you luck in your future discoveries.
