Hello all! After taking up the mantlet of family historian, I came across a couple of family members who had moved from New Jersey to South Carolina and settled in the Newberry area. Being Quakers, I assumed (correctly) that they would be either buried there or related to some who are. I have already found Walter Herbert buried there, who is my great-great-great-great grandfathers' brother. Taking Mrs. Russells' suggestion, I would ask anyone else who subscribes to this newsletter to see if they have any information regarding the Herbert family that lived in Newberry from 1762 onwards. Any info you have would be extremely helpful to the cause. Anything I can do for everyone, please just let me know. Thanks! Sincerely, CPT Mark Herbert Fort Knox, Kentucky

I think I'm the one you want to talk to. My name is John Herbert, descendant of Peter(1784), last born son of Walter(1742). I live in Maryland. Other brothers were Walter(b. 1773), John((b.1769). A descendant of John is living in El Paso. Have you a given name for your gt gt gt gt grandfather's brother? The Walter you saw in the Quaker cemetery outside Newberry was probably Walter(1773); nearby would be his wife Ann Galbreath. The Walter (1742) who came from New Jersey had a falling out with the Quakers, and was dismissed from the Friends, so he and his wife Ann are buried somewhere else. John Herbert, 116 Stewart Dr, Maryland 21037, [email protected] Very glad to hear from you. I have lots for you if you want it.
