Sale of the Estate was 9-8-1803. Among the appraisers was his cousin, Andrew Dubose Junr., son of Andrew Dubose who was son of the emigrant Isaac Dubose. Capt. Andrew Dubose, son of Peter and Magdalen Dubose, served in the American Revolution in Col. Lemuel Benton's Regiment. See records in Archives, Columbia, S. C.
