Hi, Delores, I am Marian Cooper Bryan. Researching the Ross, Miller, Green, Kemp, Hudson, Neely, Sheppard, Walker,Hammett, Brown, Jones, Mongomery, Gilbert, Mahaffey, Hawkins, etc. families in Brushy Creek area of Greenville.I had lost your address due to a computer crash, but I saw you were back on the Fowler line recently with a request. I think you are the person I communicated with about the Brushy Creek Baptist Church minutes and membership list, etc. My Fowlers are from Francis Fowler who settled in Spartanburg in about 1760-70 and we have both wondered if Archibald were a brother or cousin or someone who came from the NC Fowlers. I am still looking out for you on that one. I am communicating with two people from Simpsonville area now on all these Brushy Creek families and one sent me something I wonder if you know. She found a cemetery where one of Archibald Fowler's daughters is buried. Also I am descended from Israel Miller as well by virtue of the fact that my ggggrandfather Richard Ross married Israel and Mary Henderson Miller's daughter Mary. Is this your husband's family? I've got that genealogy all the way back to PA about 3 more generations with all brothers and sisters and everything. Let me know if you in-laws are those Millers. the Edmund Miller below is from those Millers.

Hi, Marian, Thank you for the note! I am the desc. of Archibald and Edda MAHAFFEY FOWLER through Leah FOWLER, twin to Rachael. I did not have that note from the MILLER Cemetery, and I certainly appreciate it! As always, I'm still hoping for dear old Archie to reveal his definite origins to me! I do think that he is related to Francis FOWLER, and I am fairly well satisfied that was a son of Joseph FOWLER. (I think that his wf. was Rachael WHITAKER, and this is where the Rachael came for his daughter's name.). I was a MILLER bef. marriage; my husband was the PRINGLE. I am afraid that I am not desc. fr. Israel - shame! I am desc. fr. George MUELLER who prob. came fr. Hanover, Germany, and my children are 9th generation in Pickens Co., SC, desc. fr. dear old George. He died in Warren co., KY in 1812, the only one to leave the county until me! Take care, and please keep me in mind with dear old Archie!
