Family names listed in subject are those I am researching in South Carolina. Especially looking for my Jones line who are listed in census records as from South Carolina but moved to Arkansas around 1820. The given names for the Jones that I find in the 1820-25 time period are: John, Jacob, Lewis and William. I believe they may have been brothers. Female names during same period are Nancy and Mary. My research has shown land obtained by Script warrant following the War of 1812. Don't have copies of original application but there are also petitions for pay for repairs and expenses involved at Pea Patch Island. The only place by that name that I could find was located in the Delaware Bay, is there another location with the same name in S.C.? I would really appreciate hearing from anyone working on a Jones line in S.C. during the 1810 period. Also, any references to allow me to read about Pea Patch Island around 1812, I've tried internet and the historical information is slim. Willing to share information on any of the three families, Tapp, Starnes and Jones. I have quite a lot of information on the Starnes/Stearns family. Mollie in Missouri
Mollie, I am interested in know if you have a S. B. Starnes in your line. She is my GG Grandmother. She was born about 1809 in Burke Co., NC and married Rev. Silas Jordan Fincher about 1829 and died about 1851 in Union Co., NC. This Fincher line moved back and forth from NC to SC. Sorry I can't help you with your Jones family, I wish I could.
