This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Sawyer Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kRFBAIB/1466 Message Board Post: Those folks who have Priscilla McPherson tied to the John Sawyer line who ended up in South Carolina in 1760s and who died there evidently have the South Carolina Sawyers and the North Carolina mixed up. There was indeed a Priscilla McPherson and John Sawyer but this was a later John and Priscilla than the John and Priscilla that ended up in Edgefield Dist., S.C. The John Sawyer who died in Edgefield 1780s and the John Sawyer and Priscilla in Eastern N. C. did not die until after 1800. I will try to clear this up, later this evening. Arcell Sawyer
I have a John Sawyer married to Priscilla Keel who had a son John Sawyer. Is this the same John who married Priscilla "McPherson?" Priscilla Keel's John Sawyer's father was William Sawyer who married Elizabeth Hancock. Hope you will post your info, Arcell.
