A Matthias Beaver family came into Mecklenburg Co ca 1760. Is anyone researching this line? My 5Ggrandfather Matthias Beaver fought in the SC militia in the Rev War under Gen Thos Sumter. His son Matthias Beaver b 1792 married Elizabeth Blakeney and lived in Chesterfield Co, SC. I would really like to know if the Matthias Beaver in Mecklenburg was an ancestor of my Mathias Beavers! Matthias seems to be the favorite male name in the Beaver family, so this one has been hard to sort our.
