LIVINGSTON Church Session, Upper Long Cane January 5, 1868 In the short space of one year we are bowed to the mysterious Providence of the Great Head of the Church, to mourn the loss of another member of our session, our more aged friend and associate, Dr. John F. LIVINGSTON. It was the privilege of our friend to connect himself with the church in early manhood and for more than a third of a century, he enjoyed the animating hopes and the sweet communion of our Holy Religion. About the year 1832, he was called to be Elder in the church at Lebanon, where for many years he discharged his duties acceptably in that office. Having removed and permanently settled in the bounds of the congregation at Upper Long Cane, he sought and obtained a dismission from Lebanon and connected himself with this church. Soon afterwards, on the 6th of April 1856, he was called to the Eldership here. How well and faithfully he discharged his duties while with us is too well known to need recital. In doctrine he was a true Presbyterian. His Christian graces shone brighter and brighter as he approached the close of life, of which he seemed to have had striking premonition, as evinced by his impressive thoughts, on his last visit to the grave yard, in performing the sad duty of burying a grandchild, which led him to remark to his family, that the sentiment was peculiarly appropriate to him; " Ye living men, come view the ground where you must shortly lie." On the 29th of Octover 1867, he breathed his last, in the sixty-fourth year of his age. He died as he had lived, firm in the faith and confidence of a happy resurrection. "Time, like an ever rolling stream, Bears all its sons away, They fly, forgotten as a dream, Dying at the opening day." It is seldom that a Session be called upon to lament the loss of one more throughly identified with all the interests of the church, and the community in which he lived, than was the subject of this brief sketch. It fell to the lot of a few to be more useful in the various stations in life. Notwithstanding the delicacy of his frame, and the feebleness of his physical constitution, he survived most of those who began life with him and was thus spared to a ripe old age. With the increase of years came increase of wisdom, and long before he was taken from them, he had become the acknowledged head and trusted counselor of a wide circle of relatives and friends. To them, as well as to us, his loss will long be felt, if indeed ever repaired. Were we to say of Dr. Livingston that he was an honest man, it would not come up to the full measure of his worth. He was a Christian. He was honest in that true sense of the term, which makes men in this life prefer their duty to the gratification of their passions. Cautious, yet not wanting in firmness; frugal, yet charitable; diligent in business, yet fervent in spirit; rigid in discipline, yet at the same time full of tenderness and affection towards those over whom he had the right to exercise control. His active nature and sympathizing disposition fitted him peculiarly for discharging the duties of a peace-maker, and we hazard nothing in saying that no man in this community more early acquired or more steadily and deservedly maintained a reputation for this high quality, so rich in the promised blessing. He will sit no more with us in this Session, to give us his counsel and advice. This dispensation of Providence forcibly reminds us that we are rapidly approaching that great time where we are to give an account of our stewardship. Let us endeavor to imitate the good example and practice the virtues of our deceased friend, sumitting with humility to all the dispensations of Providence, and beseeching the Great Head of the Church, "Teach us, O Lord, how frail is man, And kindly lengthen our the span, Till thine own grace, so rich, so free, Fit us to die and dwell with thee." Resolved, that we mingle our grief with the family of the deceased, and lement his death as the loss of a valued officer of this church, and a cherished brother. Resolved, that this paper be read to the congregation by our Pastor and that a copy thereof be furnished to the family of the deceased. And also, that a copy be furnished to the District papers and to the Southern Presbyterian, with a request to publish. From the minutes, R.H. Wardlaw, Clerk -------- MARRIAGES Married on the 16th ult., by Rev. Hugh McLeer, Mr. J.R. SEWRIGHT and Miss Nina P.

LYNCH departed this life at his residence in this district on the 13th of December 1867. He was a native of Laurens, but established himself here in practice nearly forty years ago. Successful in medicine as a physican and planter, he was a man of large property before the late War. He was twice married, and has left a widow and six children to mourn his loss. Reared in a pious family, he made a profession of religion early in life.

JAMES A. ALLEN We regret to annouce the death of Mr. James A. ALLEN, one of our most esteemed fellow citizens, at his residence in our Village, last Wednesday night. The deceased was for a long time an invalid, and fell at last a victim to the slow but sure approach of the fell destroyer, Consumption. We knew him long and well and can well bear testimony to the high integrity of his character and the blamelessness of his life. A sincere and pious Christian, a high minded and public spirited citizen, a couregous and affable gentleman, he was esteemed by a large circle of relatives and friends, by his temper and the kindness of his heart. He had in no small measure that character which "thinketh no evil" but rejoices in truth, and reaped its natural reward in the high regard and devoted attachment of his friends. The counselor, the guide and protector of a large and dependent family, his loss to them is irreparable. The funeral services will take place at the Presbyterian church of our village at 11 o'clock this morning. ------- NEWSPAPER Issue of Friday, MARCH 20, 1868 STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, Abbeville District Court of Ordinary Whereas, application has been made by Walter G.

Billie, and others, Yes, that is our Ruth O'NEAL, but I'm not sure she was born in Lincoln Co, TN, even thought they went there where James Holloway POOL and his brother, John POOL, Jr, did. Ruth is the one on her father's will in Laurens District, SC; too many other "coincidences" for it not to be her. And, I also have this Benjamin ROWE'S signature from Lincoln Co, TN...would have to check my files to find it, but know it is here. I've seen Lucy (WOMACK) BATES in my notes, must be this one. I was going to check the PERKINS/PARKINS names soon.

NEWSPAPER ABTRACTS FROM "THE ABBEVILLE PRESS", Abbeville, South Carolina for NOVEMBER 1867 and DECEMBER 1867 NEWSPAPER Issue of Friday, NOVEMBER 1, 1867 DEATH OF DR. J.F. LIVINGSTON It is with profound regret that we announce the death of Dr. J.F. Livingston, one of our most honored and esteemed fellow citizens, at his residence in our District, on Tuesday evening last. He had been in feeble health for some time past and being naturally of a delicate constitution, fell as easy prey to the destroyer. Dr. Livingston was one of the representative men of our district, and we know not of one who had the rare combination of attributes which make up our intellectual and moral nature, who was better qualified to sustain the honor and integrity, the intelligence and public spirt of our time honored district. Of clear, practical intellect, of even temper, well balanced judgment, of active sympathy and of great purity of character, his influence was felt upon all with whom he came in contact and he exerted a power which was not the less effective that it was quiet and unobtrusive. Universally esteemed for his high integrity and for the beautiful harmony and consistency of his character, he was endeared to the popular heart by his kind, affable and sympathizing temper, and by the genial sunlight of his pure and unselfish nature. We suppose, that there was no one in the district who was more universally beloved and as he had been repeatedly honored with the public confidence, there was no office in the gift of our people, which was not open to his acceptance. The pure and high-minded patriot, the active and public spirited citizen, the sage counselor, the reliable friend, the sincere, zealous Christian, his loss will be equally felt in the social circle and around the domestic hearth. One by one, the worthiest of a past generation, are being removed from our midst, and we are called again and again to take up the lamentation. "Our fathers, where are they, and do the prophets live forever?" "But though dead, they yet speak." Their candle has been removed, not extinguished. The light of their bright examples shines with a serene and steady radiance, even from the tomb, to illuminate our pathway. Let us cherish their memories and emulate their virtues and from this restrospect of the past, and the consolations of the future, borrow the secure hope and unwavering faith which may enable us to hear the call and meet the responsibilities of the present, leaving the future to the All Wise Dispensor of events. The funeral services were conducted at the Upper Long Cane church yesterday morning, and after a very appropriate and impressive discourse by the Rev. A.A. Morse (in the absence of the pastor, Dr. Turner) the remains of the deceased were consigned to their last resting place, in the presence of a large concourse of sorrowing relatives, friends and acquaintances. -------------- NEWSPAPER Issue of Friday, NOVEMBER 8, 1867 MARRIAGES Married on the 31st of Oct. 1867, by Rev.

NEWSPAPER ABSTRACTS FROM "THE ABBEVILLE PRESS", Abbeville, South Carolina for AUGUST 1867, SEPTEMBER 1867, OCTOBER 1867 NEWSPAPER Issue of Friday, AUGUST 2, 1867 HORRIBLE MURDER We learn that on Tuesday of last week, Mr. Franklin A. Ragsdale, living in the eastern portion of the district, was found within three hundred yards of his own house, shot through the right wrist, and with his left arm shattered above and below the elbow joint. He had been in bad health for some time and was unable to give any account of the occurance and no satisfactory clue was obtained by the Coroner's inquest. We have not heard how long Mr. Ragsdale survived the injuries. He was a quiet, inoffensive citizen and highly esteemed. On Friday morning, a negro was brought to jail on suspicion of being implicated in the murder, but there is no definite evidence of such complicity, so far as we can ascertain.

Audrey, Thank you so much for all that info! Some of that looks promising. We have tried for years to tie this to the O'Neals of Newberry because that makes so much sense, but haven't been able to, nor to the Fenton Hall family. I know "Grandpa Hall & Grandma O'Neal" were married about 1795. There were two women receiving Texas land grants at the right time, Elizabeth Hall and Rebecca Hall. They were also large slave holders, and definitely not pacifistic! There is a William Hall who served in the War of 1812 with a Fuller, both in Laurens Co., and because of the connection with the Fuller name, we have wondered if they at that time actually lived in Laurens (though it was the Old 96th District still).
