I am wondering then how it is that you cannot "confirm" his burial? Have you been in contact with Magnolia to check? Yvonne I'm new to this and tried but did not find the right path. However, as a byproduct of this rollcall,someone gave me the link. Thanks for responding.

I am attempting to document a fact recorded on my ancestor's tombstone in the Leverette Family Cemetery in Iva, Anderson Co., South Carolina. "He assisted in building the first houses in the City of Augusta, GA. " My ancestor is Stephen Leverett born in Lunenburg Co., VA, in the year 1765 Departed this life [in Anderson, SC] the 6th of September 1853. A Michael McKie was chosen by Stephen as his guardian in 1783 when Stephen's father died in Lunenburg. This same Michael McKie left and went to the Augusta area [late 1780s] according to the British Mercantile Claims of Virginia and printed in the Virginia Genealogist. Although I have do not have adequate documentation to prove this, it is my belief that a Daniel McKie, carpenter in early Augusta, was either a son or brother to this same Michael McKie. Thanks for considering my query. Any help will be appreciated. Charlotte Tucker Tuscaloosa, AL
