>Was this Bartholomew Austin line in NC prior to SC? had a brother Nathaniel >or Benjamin? TXJEAN ([email protected]) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear TXJEAN, Bartholomew Austin is the last person on my lineage, born about 1715, location unknown and died 1771 in SC. He married an Elizabeth and had 10 children that I know of (I can send you their children if you don't have them). There are only theories about his parentage and I don't know any of his siblings. If you have any information that might lead to more on Batholomew Austin, we would like to learn of it. Have you sent your question to the AUSTIN List?
