Dear Doug, I saw your e mail and wondered if you might be able to help me with figuring out the background of Sarah Jane Graham who married Doshee Aldridge Messer in 1858 in Harnett/Cumberland CoNC. On earlier census sheets she was listed with Sarah Graham -Smith , Anne Graham Smith and Catherine Graham Smith and sometimes they were just Smiths. Do you have any ideas or is this in any way related to your line?

Hello, I am looking for info on John Daniel Campbell born in the mid 1800s either in or near Cumberland County NC. He married Harriet Ann Cashwell of Fayetteville. His father was from Scotland and his mother was from Ireland. He and Harriet had 7 children. I believe they later moved to south GA. I know one of their daughters, Lizzie Mae, did because she married James Edmonds of Baker County GA. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Hi , I am looking for info on Staten Gardner and his brother Hoyt. I have not found anything except that Staten was married to Nina V. Bundy. Nina was born in 1870 in washington or martin county NC. I believe that Hoyt may have traveled to New York .I don't know how old he was when this occurred. I am guessing that as a contemporary of Staten ,Hoyt was born abt. 1870 (very roughly). I know this isn't much but I am hoping somebody has run across these brothers (there may be other siblings , I don't know). Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

I descend from Gilbert McKeithan b by 1733, d aft 1812 Brunswick Co, NC. He first appeared in the New Hanover Co deeds in 1753 as a witness. He married Sarah Milliken in Prince Frederick's Parish, SC. He seems to have remained in SC for a number of years before appearing in the NC records again. I have not been able to prove his father, but I BELIEVE he was a son of Thomas McKeithan d 1745-1750 and Deborah ???. Deborah had remarried to James McRee by 1750. I believe James was the son of William McRee Sr d Duplin Co, NC. There is a record for a Deborah McKeithan 1739 in Bladen Co who might be the same Deborah. She was a near neighbor to John McIver whose name also appeared on the SC records in association with Thomas McKeithan's father, Dugald McKeithan who appeared in the SC records as early as 1732. Dugald McKeithan of SC is different from Dugald McKeithan d 1750 Bladen Co, son of Donald McKeithan 1739 immigrant. I believe Donald McKeithan the 1739 immigrant and Dugald McKeithan of SC were probably brothers as there was association between the descendants of these two lines. Has anyone researched the Scots who settled the Winyah/Georgetown/Williamsburg area of SC or Scots who arrived in the Cape Fear or Charleston area prior to 1732? Does anyone have any information on the McRee family? The dates that I have been sent for the children of William McRee Sr vary by as much as 30 years. I have heard that there were later records for James McRee in SC with wife named Ann but I don't have access to those records. Donald McKeithan 1739 immigrant owned property in the town of Old Brunswick where he was a tailor before moving to Bladen Co. It is known in our family that Gilbert McKeithan's daughter was buried at St Philip's Church in Old Brunswick along with other unnamed ancestors. It's very unlikely that Gilbert descended from Donald McKeithan even though he can be associated with Old Brunswick. Donald's children and most if not all of his grandchildren can be identified by the will of his son Dugald McKeithan d 1750 Bladen Co. The will named Dugald's father Donald, Dugald's brothers and sisters and their children. Gilbert was not named in that will so it's almost certain he was not Donald's grandson, but the will did direct that land in SC be sold. This land was in the same area where the earlier Dugald McKeithan of SC lived - another indication of a close relationship between the two lines. Gilbert's granddaughter stated that their family left Old Brunswick and went to SC. This does not agree with Donald's descendants but does agree with Dugald's family. So I am looking for some evidence of Scots in the Old Brunswick area prior to 1732 when Dugald McKeithan first appeared in the SC records. I understand a group of Scots arrived in Charleston in 1684, but this was 55 years prior to Donald McKeithan's arrival in 1739 and 48 years prior to Dugald McKeithan's first appearance in the SC records in 1732. I need something closer to 1730. Any help out there? Thanks! Cookie

Hi All -- Many of our Scots ancestors came to this country as indentured servants, taken prisoner primarily at the Battles of Dunbar and Worcester. Because there seems to be a dearth of information re: these two battles, the prisoners who were taken, and where they ended up, we've formed a very informal mailing list to address ONLY the Battles of Dunbar and Worcester, and the Covenanters during that period of time. Please join us in our efforts to dig up our sometimes elusive ancestors. The address is: ScottishWarPrisoners@onelist.com. Please come and join us, if you are so inclined. Regards -- Judy

Some time its simply as miss spelling entered into the records. However, the two s Douglas could show my forefathers came from Scotland by way of Ireland.
