Virginia, Have you seen the will of John or Hugh Connell? John Connell died around 1842. I have recently found out that my African ancestors were on the Connell plantation. The same plantation was part of the Charles Percy estate. Some of my ancestors names are included in the Charles Percy will, and also were part of the Connell plantation when it was inherited by Dr. J C Patrick. Does anyone have information on the Tilsey/Edgefield plantation that was part of the Charles Percy land, later owned by John Connell and passed on to Dr. J C Patrick? Regards, Alvin Blakes
