This record states that there are records of the burials. I am not sure if this is the same cemetery I am thinking of, but there are no records for it, if it is the same one. There is no location recorded for those burial records. Question: If records exist, where are they? Where Hannon Rupert get the info that there were records? The cemetery that I am thinking of is known now by another name.....Cowen?? not sure.... whoever owns the land now....... and I understood that many of the graves were moved to the new Langley Cemetery years ago, but not all. Is anyone in the community trying to do a clean up of the cemetery? Seems like an excellent opportunity to record the graves there, discover the stones buried, and perhaps have a local gen society write a book listing those graves, maybe including pictures.

I am trying to find out more information on what happend to the family of a distant cousin of mine - John Harvey Loomis. John Harvey Loomis was born in Columbia and moved to Aiken after the war, living there from the late 1880s until his death in 1912. His wife - Eliza Hendrix - was born in Aiken in the 1850s and died in Aiken in 1947. They had several children, the most prominent being a son named Thomas Carling Loomis. Thomas had a son named John Loomis. John had a son named John Harvey Loomis (died a child) and a daughter named Margauritte. Most are buried in Aiken at Bethany Cemetery. I do not know what happened to Margauritte. Other family names associated with the Loomis family include Hamilton, White and Schulhoffer (Aiken), and Calhoun (Decatur, GA) An elderly resident of Aiken recalls knowing John Harvey Loomis of 1912 and his family as a grocer in Aiken. She believes that the family may have relocated to Savanah. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks - John Loomis, Alexandria VA

The following obit was published in "The State", Columbia, SC, Nov 27, 2005 I have done research on the Lott families of the Edgefield/Aiken Area and believe that she might be connected based on the name of a son, Shep Andrew Lott. Can anyone tell me her husband's name, as it was not included in the obit. WILLISTON -- Services for Evelyn Garvin Lott, 89, will be held at 11:00 am Monday, Nov 28, 2005 at the Williston First Baptist church. Burial will be in the Williston Cem. with Eastern Star rites accorded........... Mrs. Lott died Saturday. Born in Barnwell Co, she was the last living member of 11 children born to the late Bennie Lee and Gertrude Rouis Garvin. She retires as a manager for the Brown Sign with the Sewing Machine in the Corner of Barnwell. She was a member of the First Baptist Church, the Rebeckah Sunday School Class, was honorary member and in 2004 received a plaque in recognition of 50 years service in the church choir. She was a member of the Ackerman Chapter of the Eastern Star #190. Survivors iniclude daughter, Shirley AcAlhaney Oliver; son Shep Andres (Roxanne) Lott; grandchildren, Robbie McAlhaney, Bradley and Kelly Lott; great-grandchildren, Lee and Shane McAlhaney. she was predeceased by an infant son. I have two older generation Shep Lotts in my files, desc. of Hasseltine Bunion Lott b. ca 1840 who married Malinda West. I am trying to attach her to the right LOTT family.

To-Toole, Aiken and Barnwell List Members and Bill Hooten and Larry Scott, I am still following the previous Toole/Gantt thread that Bill started on the Aiken list as a Gantt researcher. I have added to it myself. Larry Scott who researches his wife's Woodwards, etc. in the Barnwell/Aiken area has apparently added information off the list. I have a double TOOLE line in the same area. Larry has this really fast connection that gets really neat obits from THE AUGUST CHRONICLE on line. All of these people, mostly in upper Barnwell, married each others cousins back and forth like crazy! One never knows who will show up in somebody else's family branches! Through Texshare which our local society pays extra for Heritage Quest census, etc. I can now get all the federal census, I just don't have all the indexes which are not always right. I live too far out in the "sticks" to get DSL. I have given up trying to do the Augusta Newspaper online through my very slow regular phone line connection. I have some questions about what Larry Scott added below, in particularly about the Job/Jobe Toole and Malinda Bates marriage which Larry cited below. This does not exactly match the 1910 census of Aiken County for Job Toole and Victoria [somebody?]. The way I read it, they have been married once for 20 years. It says that she has had 10 children with 9 living. There are nine children listed with this family all with the Toole surname in House #239/242, Sleepy Hollow Township, ranging in age from 18 to 1 & 4/12 yrs. Is Victoria on the census the same person as Malinda Bates? Or is this a later marriage to another woman or is there some confusion in who married who??? Just how many BATES women married TOOLE man in the Barnwell/Aiken area? Or for that matter, how many BATES men, married TOOLE men? Oh! How I wish SC had kept marriage records!!! I have that Lucinda Bates 1821-1898 married Gary Toole 1814-1899 well before 1850. On the 1850 Barnwell census Gary Toole's wife was Lucinda and there was a Mary Bates living with them in her 60's. This is also from Reynard Toole's, Sr.'s Toole manuscript done in 1970-1972 along with Geneva Eubanks information about that time. His father was Rufus and his grandparents were Gary Toole and Lucinda Bates. Who was her father if Mary was her mother??? I have Gary Toole as a half-brother to my double ancestor, Manning Toole. I have my Manning Toole as a whole brother of Merritt Manly Toole, the father of Job/Jobe Toole b. 1861. Merritt and Manning are living together in 1850 next to their father, Stephen Toole. Some researchers, including myself, have been thrown because Merritt's sex is given as female instead of male in 1850. Bill and Larry have "pegged" Job/e Toole's Daughter, Hattie O. born 1898 as the Hattie Toole who married the Sidney Lester Gantt that Bill is seeking. Those dates match the Wagener Cem. in the Volume II of the Aiken Cem. Books. Larry also contributed some obits citations from THE AUGUSTA CHRONICLE. I don't disagree with that. The information seems to match. I was missing the clue of the surname Gantt. Does anyone have any other information Merritt's other children besides census? The name of Gary's Toole's mother is unknown, an apparent first wife of Stephen Toole b. 1780. She might have been a Treadway but no real proof except that a Treadway in Mississippi was suppose to be a cousin somehow. My contact there died at a young age and no one took up her research. According to a Toole Bible Record Stephen's Toole's second wife was Mary {_?_} d. c. 1845. I have split the children between the two wives by the names recorded in this Bible as being by Mary{_?_]. Their approximate ages are too spread out to be by the same wife. I am also intrigued by the number of Hattie Tooles. Was it a family name and a clue to further research or just popular at the time? Besides this Hattie O. Toole m. Gantt, there was another Harriett Toole that I have not connected but belongs in here somewhere. Then one of my great grandmothers was Hattie A. Toole, dau. of Manning Toole mentioned above. It turned out that on the census her name was Harriet Ann, I think much prettier than being called "Grandma Hattie." Any ideas out there on the marriage of Job/e Toole to Victoria _?_. Was she and Lucinda Bates the same person or are the marriages confused? Is Hattie a clue or just a popular name at the time in the late 1800's? My apologizes to Larry who I hope will see this on a list. I have your e-mail address hidden somewhere. Thanks heeps for the lovely obituaries you have sent me in the past and for your willingness to share them with others!

FROM LARRY SCOTT BELOW I do believe this is the same Hattie as you show below. Here's what I have found 1. Sidney Lester "Squibb"1 Gantt, Sr. was born 1890 in (lived New Holland Sec., Aiken Co., SC), and died 06 Sep 1963 in Aiken, Aiken, SC (Aug. Chron. Obit, 7 Sep 1963, age 72). He married Hattie O.
