Jean, thanks for taking the time to look that up. Chastain data reports the father to my John and Charity Middleton is Thomas Middleton. My cousin seems to think he was married to a Horry. Census data, that I have recently posted shows a Thomas Middleton in Pendleton Dist 1800, residing with the Denton family into which my Middletons married. John and his wife resided primarily in Jackson Co NC, while Charity and her husband, Jonas Denton moved to GA. I think these Middletons, below, are related somehow. I will post to some other lists in attempts to connect. Thanks Lynda Jean wrote: I went to the Charleston library last summer and did some copying from book newspapers etc,I will pass them on to you.firstly. the Horrys were in the book St James Santee Plantation Parish. I will have to go back and look that up when the weather permits,unless someone who has the book will send the info to the list, these peole would have been in Berkeley Co S.C.
