For those of you who have a James Donaldson in your family line, I ran across a " James Donaldson of the City of New York buying land in Marlboro Co., SC in 1832 from Mary Ann Pledger of Texas" There were a lot of Pledgers in Marlboro Co at that time. And a few Donaldsons. This Pledger lady may have just migrated out to Texas with her husband or family from South Carolina and was selling her inheritance. (Speculation) This Donaldson man may have been connected to the Donaldson family from an earlier time. I have a John Donaldson who had three children, named in his Will of 1781, probated in NC. Two of the children disappeared from the records. William and Peter. The third son, John, stayed in the area and moved back across the state line to SC where his descendants still live. The senior Donaldson's wife's name was Sarah. This may help when looking at names of children. My gedcom/FTM/homepage is at: http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/h/a/r/Joanne--B-Harley/ My Donaldson family is charted there if anyone would like to see it. Joanne H. harleyclan@coastalnet.com

I checked in my Hedge and Adams books (the only good books I have) but I didn't find a Margery, by any spelling. Sorry. -----Original Message----- From: Jean Lawson [mailto:jlawson@newwave.net] Sent: Saturday, August 12, 2000 9:22 PM To: DONALDSON-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [DONALDSON-L] Re: DONALDSON-D Digest V00 #16 I saved your e-mail offer to do look ups in your book, Descendants of Moses Donaldson. I thought I would let the dust settle from you initial offer before making a request. I know this is a real long shot, but I have been searching for years for any information on my gr, gr grandmother, Margery (various spellings) Donaldson, who was born about 1797 in PA or MD and who married Alexander Chaney before 1818. She and Alexander moved to Meigs Co., OH in 1821. If you could check the book for her, I would really appreciate it.
