I have located the following information from PETITIONS FOR LAND FROM THE SOUTH CAROLINA COUNCIL JOURNALS VOLUME 1:1734/5-1748 by Brent H. Holcomb. Meeting of Wednesday 12th of March 1745/6 Page 57: Read the Petition of Saml Wiggins, shewing That the petit'r has been in this province 3 years & having seven persons in family besides himself, viz't a Wife & Six Children for whom as yet he hate not receiv'd any land on acc't of family right, but being desirous to settle and cultivate some of his Majesty's vacant lands humbly prays his Excell'cy & Honours would be pleased to give a Warr't for laying out to him 400 acres of vacant land, being in proportion to his said family right, in one or two tracts in the Welch Tract on Pedee River, near to the lands of John Lake, & C. March 11, 1745/6. The prayer of the petition was granted. In the 1800 Census of South Carolina there are two Benjamin Rogers listed in Marlboro County. Can anyone provide any information of any of the above Benjamin's? Thank you for any help provided. Joyce Phillips ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
