Yes, I know this, but I do not know how to research it from here in Texas. I have a passel of Scots Irish ancestors who came over about the same time: Faulkner Hutchinson Lessley/Leslie Craig Gillespie Wier McElwee Latham all came about the same time to the same place in South Carolina Oh, I should also name Jackson as Pres. Andrew Jackson's mother would be a ggggggg aunt of mine as she was a Hutchinson and my Faulkner married Mary Leslie Andrew's first cousin.
