Tom I loved Teresa's article on Melungeons, i think i resd somthing on them in some Spanish records of FL. It realy opens this Richland co SC Breedlove's. I hope someone can shed some light on them. If Nathan's wife Susanna Lary was of Portugese desent. Thomas,Nathan,Reuben,Jordan, Winney could all hook in. We know Reuben went to TN , Hamilton co. 1850 Reuben 82 SC , Priscilla 80 SC. They must have moved with a Dau. as there are no other Breedlove's there. One possibly is Juliann b abt 1815 SC ma to Thomas Craft 45 SC. They are next door to Reuben. We know Jorden went to AL 1845 then on to LA 1860/61. This lleaves Thomas and Nathan. What happened to families??? Back to Portugese. Sincy SC man of color. Also 1850 page 54 Richland 10 years old listed as Mulatto is Nathan.. This in fascinating with these posts about peolpe being Indians and dark peolpe. Could be some of the lost Breedlove's are from Nathan and Susan Lary. If we all work together we might figure this all out. I just hope you all can make sense out of this. Don
