Neither volume of the Oconee County Cemetery Survey shows the name Briskey. All the Mercks are from the 20th century. Perhaps someone who has the Anderson and Pickens County Cemetery Surveys could be of help. I also looked through the old cemetery list for Double Springs Church with no results.

They lived around the Old Pendleton District. Also trying to find where the old homestead actually was. They are a large historical family. His son Nicholas II ended up with a plantation in Alabama and 13 children and his son Nicholas III ended up with 15 children. Also slaves. They are written in reason for the tears by Bobby lindsey. He was a surveyor for government for the old collins ferry route. I've been trying to locate a copy of that map. Being disabled I can't afford to hire anyone. So any help is greatfully appreciated. Also trying to find his and his brother Charles military records. His son received gold lottery in 1832 in GA for service. They fought in the American Revolution for 7 years. any help appreciated. Briskey/Brisky/Brisque.
