Hi, Has anyone ran across a Sterling McCarty b. circa 1813 in their research of Edgefield SC to MS McCartys? He is in Hinds Co MS in the 1840 census and in close proximity to a Michael McCarty in some Hinds Co tax digests. Sterling moved on to FL around 1841 and in all following census states SC as his birthplace. Would love to know the connection between Sterling and Michael, if there is one. This is my McCarty "brick wall". Thanks Kathy Y Jeffers South Carolina
