David and James Anderson arrived there in 1804 coming from Abbeville, SC. I have my line traced back to a David Anderson who I believe is a son of the James that arrived in 1804. There is an 1859 history of Randolph County that mentions a Joseph Anderson that arrived there with Clark in 1780. Is this the Joseph Anderson you were referring to? Do you know if there is any connection between him and the James and David that arrived in 1804? Ron Hanks David Anderson ca.1813 - ca.1850 m. Julia Thompson James W Anderson 1835-1901 m.
