Does anyone know the earliest documented evidence for Fosters in Rutherford County? I see by the census records that there were a number of Fosters there by 1790. Were they there before that? If so, where did they come from? Are they related to the Fosters in nearby Spartanburg and York Counties, SC? I am particularly interested in the Fosters that intermarried with the Langford/Lankford family, especially the Daniel Foster listed on the War of 1812 muster rolls for Rutherford County. He's on the 1820 census, but has gone by 1830. Anyone know where he went to? Thanks for any help.
