I noticed the Bethune name in your query. Are you researching the Bethune's? I have been trying to find information on a Catherine Bethune who married Malcolm Munroe, and an Annie Bethune Person who married Colin A. Munroe.

Maybe my reply to Betsy Tyson will help you. When were your Bethune ancestors living? Fred According to sources found at the NC Archives, my ancestor, Capt. John Martin, "had 300 acres (forty cleared) on MacLendon's Creek in Cumberland County, NC. His wife, Marion MacLeod, apparently died c1784 in Moore Co. and is believed to be the first person buried in the "Old Scotch Graveyard " on his land." There is a list of persons buried at the Old Scotch Cemetery in Anthony Parkers book, Moore County Cemeteries. Also Myrtle Bridge has transcribed the stones that could be found and read at http://home.att.net/~hbridges/scotchcem.htm. I went to see the graveyard about two years ago - it was a mess. There were broken beer bottles and other trash scattered about. Anyway, Flora Bethune, John Martin's daughter-in-law, was raised in the Martin household as a foster child after the Rev. War. Her mother, Christian Campbell Bethune, was widowed and taking care of her elderly grandparents nearby. I would bet your Margaret is kin to my Flora. Have you checked out Don Smith's database at rootsweb Worldconnect? There is also a great MacLeod site that includes many of the Bethune relations listed at glyphix. I'll see if I can find the site. This is all off the top of my head, but I hope it helps.
