I am looking for parents of Samuel and John Pyle, both born ca 1770-74 in S.C. They went to GA in the late 1790's and were on the 1800 census in Oglethrope Co. Both drew in Cherokee Land Lotteries in various years and counties. Both were probably already married when they arrived in GA. John to Mary Maxwell and Samuel to Charity Eason. I've found a Nicholas Pyle, b. 1748-50 that was in Greenville Dist (or Co.) at that time who married (1) ? in 1771 and had four sons named John, Thomas, _____, and _______. Indications are that two of them died young. Nicholas married Ann Black ca 1779 and had 15 more children. He went to Sangamon Co. Ill. where he died in 1829 living with a son, Alfred Pyle. Does anyone have names similiar to these in that time and place in their database? We have not been able to find siblings for Samuel and John and thought they may have been raised by another family when Nicholas married his second wife. (They can't be found in 1790 S.C. census in a Pyle household) *NOTE: Book, Pile/Piles/Pyle/Pyles of America lists only one marriage for Nicholas (Ann Black) I have family charts that show otherwise. Ann Black was born ca 1759 and would have not been old enough to be mother of the four sons I mentioned. This Nicholas is from the line from Bishop's Canning, Wiltshire, England> Chester Co., Pa> Chatham Co., N.C. and Greenville Co. S.C. Would like to see more southern Pyles listed. (S.C.>Ga>Ala>Miss>La. and Tex) Thanks all!! Doris
