On 1st day 4th month 1765, Hopewell MM issued a certificate of removal for "Wm. O'Neal, wife, & ch., Abijah and Sarah" to Wateree meeting, the one in Camden SC that was also called Fredericksburgh meeting (for the township, rather than for the Wateree River on which it was located). William O'Neal changed his mind about the location as soon as he arrived in SC, petitioned on 7 Oct 1766 for land on the Saluda River. It was located on Mudlick Creek west of the Little River, technically on the Laurens Co side of the later border, but part of the Bush River Quaker community. ----- Original Message ----- From: "jane gilbert" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2008 2:23 PM Subject: [SC-BUSHRIVERQUAKERS] From Hopewell to Bush River Hi everyone, I had time to kill in Northern Virginia yesterday and spent a couple of hours at the main Fairfax County library. They had a book called Hopewell Friends History. I jotted down the following certificates that were granted to Bush River. I believe these are all in Hinshaw's, but I thought I'd still send them along. I know it's not a complete list, but I was running out of time. 4 1 1768 Hannah Pugh & Children, 1 2 1768 Jos.
