Surnames: chestnuts and chisholms Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/BZ.2ADI/180.298.2 Message Board Post: Good Morning, I am searching for African american chisholms from chester, south carolina.after the death of their previous owner they were in gainesville, florida by 1855. I see that the chestnuts brought their slaves with them around 1855. I don't think that camden and chester were to far from each other. I am wondering if you might have any names of the slaves that belonged to the chestnuts. my great great grandfather and his brothers were ned and dudley and william. if you don't know , do you know where i could check that information out at. any help would be appreciated. by the way my family brought 681 acres of land in 1867 for 35,000lbs of sea island cotton. thank you in advance. antoinette russell
