    3. ===================================================================== Match: Boles Source: [email protected] From: Sandi Gorin <[email protected]> Subject: [KYBARREN] THE TRIAL OF MALCOLM BASHAM Martha Harrison gave me, at the meeting last night, the following story taken from the Glasgow Weekly Times. I had never heard this before and will interrupt my posts of other newspaper tidbits to relate this story. I have done no research on this yet ... Glasgow Weekly Times, January 4, 1877. "The case of the Commonwealth against John M. BASHAM charged with the murder of old man HAWKINS nearly two years ago was called at the recent setting of criminal court on an application by the defense for continuance, the case went over to the June term. LEWIS & PORTER, BOLES & McQUOWN and LESLIE & BOTTS represent the defense. Commonwealth attorneys CARR, Judge John E HALSELL of Warren [Co] & Col. J P NICHOLS of Frankfort are conducting the prosecution." "Glasgow Weekly Times, December 6, 1877: The trial of this case has been going on for the past several days at Tompkinsville, a change of venue having been granted from this county to that. The trial has excited much interest in this county and a large delegation from our town went over to Monroe as witnesses for the Commonwealth and defense. The trial commenced the latter part of last week, but owing to various causes, slow progress was made for the first day or two. There were a large number of witnesses examined and speaking commenced on Tuesday. There was a strong array of counsel on both sides and all that could be was said pro and con. At the present writing the result is unknown. "Glasgow Weekly Times, December, 1877. The case of the Commonwealth against John M BASHAM charged with the murder of A L HAWKINS in March, 1875, was called on last Saturday week in Tompkinsville and after two or three days spent in securing a jury, examining witnesses, and agreement of counsel for and against accused, the case was given to the jury on Wednesday, and after four or five hours of deliberation, it returned a verdict of acquittal. Mr. BASHAM returned on Saturday last to this place in company with his wife and child, from whom he has had a long and painful separation." To be continued with notes taken from the trial as to what happened.

Isaac is son of Eli Lowry - Eli owned a tract of land in Ramsey Twp in 1849 where he lived at the 1850 census - lived in Shelby Co in 1860 - lived in Ramsey, Fayette Co in 1870. Isaac & Nancy A had children William born 1850, Kesiah 1852, Martha 1855 and Jane born 1857.

Do you have a Nancy in your research. So many of the NC people were in SC, I have one ancestor that was from SC and his brother married there. He was also a William Wilson who was married, lost her, and remarried Creany Thomson. I have a letter from Wm's brother and he tells about living in SC, the letter was written in 1801.

Hard north wind. We went to Grange installation and initiation. 26 Jan 1946 - Dad and Tom's family went to S.F. Called on Hen. Tom had operation (3rd). Went to Eunice's to pick up Joe. Joe stayed to come with Eunice tomorrow. Tom called on a friend at that hospital. Home at 7:20. Beautiful day, they enjoyed the ride. 27 Jan 1946 - Eunice, Joe and Sharon arrived about noon. Bunny and Archie a little later. Will and Jack pruned grapes. Phyllis had German measles. Beck went to L.A. 28 Jan 1946 - Tom and family went back to Merced to visit Joe and family a few days more then on home. They spent Xmas in Mo. With their four sisters. Daddy took them to the bus in Livermore. According to Harry Sutcliffe, Joseph Hearst Bowles lived in Merced, CA. I also have a record of Tomas Kinsey Bowles being married to Susan Ashley. Mary Emma, Joe, and little Billie are presumably Tom and Susan's children. Tom and Joe had four sisters: Margaret, Mary, Hortense, and Lucy. I don't know who Hen. is. The others mentioned other than Dad, her husband Bethel, are her children and grandchildren. Tom and Joe didn't have a brother by that name. Tom was an M.D. so maybe he performed the operation on the 26th. There also a mention of Waltenspiel: 30 Mar 1946 - Ida Kamenerer, Edna, Mira and Walter Waltenspiel came, Ida to stay a while. The rest to bring her. Nice open day. Ed Waltenspiel was the husband of Margaret Bowles, the sister of Tom and Joe above. Could Ida, Edna, Mira, and Walter be the children of Ed and Margaret? We haven't finished transcribing the entire diary. What we have is at: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~amcolan/Coats/Phoebe_coats_journal.html

Lindsey =================================================== ===================================================================== Match: Boles Source: [email protected] From: William Lindsey <[email protected]> Subject: [SC-OLD96] Notes, 1787 Abbeville Co. Deed, The following are notes on a 1787 deed of John Green to Robert Green that I just posted to the list. I am sharing this deed because, given the loss of Abbeville Co. deeds for this time frame, any original deeds that have been preserved and can be recovered and shared may help other researchers of the county's history and of families mentioned in these deeds. The 1787 deed of John to Robert Green is valuable to Abbeville Co. Green family researchers for a number of reasons. In 1766, a John Green had a warrant for a survey of 300 acres on the northwest fork of Long Cane in Abbeville (then Granville) Co. Two years later, a Benjamin Green who seems to be closely related to this John Green obtained 150 acres on Sawney's Branch of Long Cane. The survey warrant to John Green was issued 4 Nov. 1766, with the survey occurring on 17 Nov. 1766 by John Pickens (SC Plat Bk. 10, 74). The precept for the survey is in the SC Council Journal of the same date. On 1 Oct. 1767, SC Memorials recorded a memorial for John Green for 300 acres in Granville on the northwest fork of Long Cane bordered on the east by John and Walter Trimble, on the northeast by Samuel Kerr and Hugh Herron, and on the northeast by John Boles, granted 28 Aug. 1767. Signed by John and Andrew Pickens (SC Memorials 9, 333). A careful reading of the 1787 deed shows that the land being sold by the man who identifies himself in the 1787 deed as John Green Jr. is the same tract as that entered in 1766 by John Green on Long Cane. The younger John Green was born 21 Jan. 1768 on Long Cane, and died 18 March 1837 in Bibb Co., AL. About 1789, he married Jane, daughter of Samuel Kerr and Mary Calhoun. As the 1766 and 1787 deed demonstrate, Samuel Kerr's land adjoined that of John Green the elder. One of the two tracts of of Ezekiel Calhoun, father of Mary Calhoun Kerr, was also in this vicinity. Since I can track my own ancestry to John Green and Jane Kerr, I have long attempted to sort out the John Greens in Abbeville Co. in the late 18th century. The 1787 deed is an extremely valuable document, since it indicates that the older John had died by 1787, with the man calling himself John Jr. (who married Jane Kerr) inheriting his land. This deed suggests that the younger John was the older son of John Green the elder, and his heir. The deed thus proves the lineage of John Green the younger (m. Jane Kerr) a generation further back. It also allows us to pinpoint when the older John Green died. The older John Green gave Revolutionary service in Capt. Thos. Harvey's troops of the State Light Dragoons under Col. Samuel Hammond, as well as providing service to the Continental troops in various other ways (indent file 3068, SC Archives). His indent file shows that he was still living as of 5 Jan. 1786, so the deed proves that the older John Green died, almost certainly in Abbeville Co., between that date and the time the deed was made in 1787. Sometime after selling his father's land in Abbeville Co., the younger John Green moved over to Pendleton Dist., where on 1 Jan. 1793, he had a survey for 838 acres in Pendleton Co., 96 Dist., on east side of Keowee, with a plat recorded 6 May 1793 (SC Plats 29A, 279). The land lay between plantations of his wife's uncles John Ewing Colhoun and Gen. Andrew Pickens. Letters in the John E. Colhoun papers at the South Caroliniana collection at the Univ. of SC in Columbia indicate that John and Jane Kerr Green were already living on the Keoweee plantation of John E. Colhoun as early as 6 March 1792, with John Green managing the plantation's affairs and overseeing the construction of a house while his wife's uncles remained in the lowcountry on his plantations there. On 4 May 1818, John Green sold his land on Keowee to Thomas Gates and moved his family to Bibb Co., AL ((Pendleton DB O, 136-7). From the spring of 1830 to 1834, he and his family built a house now known as the Halfway House on the Elyton-Selma Road in Bibb Co., where John and wife Jane both died. The Robert Green to whom John the younger sold the 300 acres on Long Cane in 1787 is evidently a brother of John Green. Robert Green died in Abbeville Co. sometime before 20 June 1805, when his estate was sold. It had previously been inventoried on an unrecorded date by Benjamin Terry, Samuel Young, and John Trimble. Robert Green married Catherine, daughter of George Livingston and Jane Wilson. Around 1819, Robert Livingston Green, son of Robert Green and Catherine Livingston, left Abbeville Co. to move to Jefferson Co., AL (contiguous to Bibb), where he settled in Jones Valley near present-day Elyton, AL, building a house called Greene Springs. It is this branch of the Green family that has retained the 1787 deed. I have quite a bit of information on the families of John and Robert Green, and will gladly share information. If anyone has clues about the ancestry of the John and Benjamin Green who show up on Long Cane by the mid-1760s, I would very much welcome information. William D. Lindsey
