I am sending this because his descendants moved to Orangeburg-Spartanburg area. Hope this helps.

I am looking for the parents of Susan Masters & her brother Samuel C. Masters (Fourth Great Grandfather). Susan is listed as being born 1791 in South Carolina death date unknown, married Samuel Thomas Clarke from Virginia. Susan & Samuel moved from South Carolina to Cherokee County, Georgia in 1824. Samuel died October 1853 in Henry County, Georgia. Samuel C. Masters was born 25 November 1809 in Anderson District, South Carolina & died 25 April 1899. He was first married to my Fourth Great Grandmother Dorcas/us Hughey, then to Mary Jane Morris. In the 1880 Census, Samuel lists his parents as being born in VA. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank You, Lena --------------------------------- Yahoo! Mail Bring photos to life! New PhotoMail makes sharing a breeze.

Gloria, I was at the York County, SC library today. I found the July 1901 edition of The South Carolina Historical and Genealogical Magazine published quarterly by The South Carolina Historical Society, Charleston, SC. I hope this is the magazine you wanted. I could not find your Thomas Donaldson but it does reference a Lt. John Donaldson commissioned June 18, 1775. He was in the First Company of Rangers. This Lt. John Donaldson is also referenced in the July 1900 issue. I copied the pages that had him listed along with some of the other pages that I thought might have information that could be helpful to you. I would be happy to mail them if you want them.

National Geographic "The Greatest Journey Ever Told, The Trail of Our DNA" March 2006. For those who participate in the Genographic Project per providing their DNA sample and getting their 12 marker DNA results they should read this article. When reading the article pay particular attention to the paragraph on page 73 which reads; "The Tribe's DNA is unlikely to yield any simple truths, at least in the short term. Native American groups like the Seaconke-Wampanoag have European and African as well as Native American ancestry. And as Theodore Schurr explains to those donating blood, "the initial results won't reveal a person's full heritage." They could point back to Metacomet's people-or to ancestors from another continent. "A fuller picture will emerge only after the project analyzes each person's full set of chromosomes and compares them with the Genographic Project's growing lode of DNA from other Groups." As some of us has been pointing out also, that the 12 marker results provided to the Genographic Project's participants, "the initial results won't reveal a person's full heritage" is just part of what it takes and requires to track a person's full heritage, "A fuller picture will emerge only after the project analyzes each person's full set of chromosomes and compares them with the Genographic Project's growing lode of DNA from other groups." Interesting that the article makes this type of quote but again never really quantifies in terms of DNA testing what a person's "full set of chromosomes" really is that is required in comparing to others. If you really understand DNA testing you know that it takes more than 12 markers to determine the "fuller picture." Another little bit of information for those participating in the role of DNA testing and what people tell others and don't tell others that is happening with their DNA. God Bless.

This msg sent from gdwells@bellsouth.net This is a strange Will. It looks as if he is mad at son William Mitchell Gives everything, almost, to William's children, gives William clothes and books and things, makes him take care of a cow until one granddaughter comes of age - and then makes him executor of the Will!! I wonder how William and the other grown children felt about this. Gloria Wells This msg sent from gdwells@bellsouth.net

From: SC-Genealogy-L-request@rootsweb.com Audrey, do these abstracts have the name of the person receiving the land? I have searched for a long, long time for Thomas Donaldson who was in Abbeville when he enlisted Apr 1776, he survived the War and as far as I can tell continued to live in Abbeville County somewhere until he died there in 1811. OH! I just looked again at the dates of the volume you are talking about and it ends too soon. Do you have any suggestions for me? I know nothing about the man except his name. I have the names of his children because he died intestate, and I think I know the names of his two wives: Janet Reeve(s) and Mary Cook. I hope there is a lot more of me and my husband if someone should start looking 200 years from now!! Gloria Donaldson Wells gdwells@bellsouth.net

All of the SC deeds (1719-1788) have been abstracted and published. Until the establishment of county courts in SC in 1785, all deeds were recorded in Charleston.

Joanne, I have South Carolina Abstracts, 1719-1772, VOL. II, 1740-1755, Book V-P-P, abstractsed by Clara A. Langley. Even though it states VOL II., this looks like it covers a lot of years. If there was a VOL II, there must be a VOL I. In the back of said book there are numerous places in the index; too numerous to type out. I could scan and send.
