Posted on: Harrison Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/FamilyAssoc/Harrison/881 Surname: HARRISON, PENDARVIS, SHOKES ------------------------- I have Matilda HARRISON b.c 1865 Adams Run, Colleton Co, SC; poss. dau. of John H. & Emma HARRISON. John H. HARRISON owned land in the Adams Run area in the late 1800s and is listed as living in Charleston on a deed. I believe he and his dau. Matilda lived in Charleston in 1880, listing Matilda as "in school" in the Charleston City Directory. Matilda married 1st J. H. PENDARVIS of Colleton Co, who also owned land in the Adams Run area. They had 5 children. Matilda remarried in the late 1890s to John Henry SHOKES of Charleston. John Henry SHOKES was 1st married to Josephine JOHNSTON. Matilda was of Native American blood. I am having difficulty finding info on this line and proof of the Native American lineage. Any Help Welcomed! ~
