Hello Listmembers! Do any of you have information about a William Thomas King, b. 15 Jan 1815 in Pendleton County? He died 8 Feb 1901 in Pickens County. He married Martha Kessiah Rogers 1840 in Anderson County. This William Thomas King MAY be the father of my gg grandmother Martha Jane King and I am trying to find out the names of any children that William Thomas and Martha had. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Donna Schwieder

I think they were 2 David Garrisons in this area around 1800. If your David was kin to the Tarrant's write me back at [email protected] There is a house with Tarrant's and Garrison's grave yard beside it. Has some old graves with war of 1812 and civil war soldier's buried in it. If that's not the same family my GGGrandfather had a tract of land in Grove district where one tract of land was David Garrison tract and he was a Rev and moved to Ga, I think.

Hello, I have family from the Pendleton area of South Carolina going back to the 1820s and prior. It seems that name does not exist anymore as a county in SC. I do not know that much about the area or its history. I'd appreciate any info. My fifth great-grandparents were (paternal)Henry Drummond and Sarah Canady; (maternal)David and Susan Melton. They are on the 1820 Pendleton census page 198/199. I have a web site that has more details. Please take a moment and check it out. I'd be happy to share any info with those interested. FYI: I also have deep roots in Orangeburg, SC. If anyone connects to that area you should really take a look at my site. Thanks a lot, Glen http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~gdrummondjr/

Man who captured life in Anderson County dies at 94 Samantha Epps / Independent-Mail June 25, 2003 Hearing about the death of longtime area photographer Lewis D. Moorhead Wednesday prompted many area residents to flip through photo albums and gaze at family portraits, reflecting on the man who captured those memories for nearly a century. Mr. Moorhead, who took thousands of photos of children and families in and around Anderson County, died Tuesday at Anderson Area Medical Center. He was 94. "One of Anderson's institutions passed away today," Anderson Mayor Richard Shirley said. "There is probably not a single family in Anderson that has been here for any length of time that does not have a Lewis Moorhead photo in their family album, whether it's of a family reunion, a wedding or a graduation. There are Lewis Moorhead photographs all over this city." Born in nearby Sandy Springs in 1908, Mr. Moorhead attended Pendleton High School and Clemson University and began taking pictures at Green's Studio in 1931. In 1942, he went into the U.S. Army Air Corps, where he earned sergeant stripes as a crash-site photographer during World War II. He had owned and operated Moorhead Studio out of his Power Street home since the mid-1940s. "He took pictures of more schoolchildren than anybody who lived in Anderson," friend and historian Fred Whiten said. "He took pictures of school classes for years and years. He was well-known and well-liked and just a fine person." Mr. Moorhead, who used a combination of old and new equipment, including a 60-year-old wooden-cased black view camera with a black cloth hood, was an anachronism, photographer Van Sullivan, of Anderson, said. "Stepping into his studio was like going back into time with the charm and tranquility of that era of time," he said. "He lived a quiet, simple, dignified life from which we can all learn." Some of Mr. Moorhead's photographs are at the Pendleton District Commission, a historic preservation organization. Paula Reel, director of the Anderson County Museum, called Mr. Moorhead "one of the preeminent documenters of life here in Anderson County." "Without his pictures, many families wouldn't have their lives chronicled," she said. "He had a talent to catch that right look, coaxing a smile and using the right lighting." Mr. Moorhead served as a photographer and reporter for the newspapers that later merged to form the Anderson Independent-Mail. He took pictures for the news and advertising departments, according to newspaper records.When he would run into people, Mr. Moorhead often would hand them a small card with a religious message on the front and a joke on the back, friend and historian Wayne Broadwell said. The joke listed different songs to sing while driving certain speeds, such as "Highways are Happy Ways" at 45 miles per hour. "At 75 miles per hour, sing 'When the Roll is Called Up Yonder, I'll Be There,'" the card read. "At 85 miles per hour, sing 'Lord, I'm Coming Home.'" Mr. Moorhead was a charter member of the Anderson Historical Society, American Legion Post 14, the Anderson Lions Club and Lebanon Baptist Church. According to his obituary, Mr. Moorhead was the last surviving member of his immediate family, but has several nieces and nephews. Graveside services will be at 11 a.m. Friday in the Lebanon Baptist Church cemetery. Memorials may be made to the church at 5150 Gentry Road, Anderson, SC 29621.

I am trying to find out about the Cleveland Cemetery that is at the SC Welcome Center on I-85 coming from GA. I understand that from info from Paul below that many graves were moved to Beaverdam Baptist Church in Fair Play, SC in 1998. Some [about 6] stones are still on the top of the hill at the welcome Center but I am trying to find out about the ones that were moved and who was in the cemetery before the move.

THE CURRENT BEAVERDAM BAPTIST CHURCH FOLKS MIGHT KNOW SOMETHING. HOWEVER, I HAVE NOT FOUND THEM TO BE VERY HELPFUL IN THE PAST. Where did you find the recordings for that graveyard? I'M GUESSING THAT ANN ROGERS OF WALHALLA DID THE ORIGINAL RECORDING AND ADDED OBIT INFO TO IT. CHECK THE OCONEE COUNTY CEMETERY SURVEY BOOKS TO SEE WHAT THEY CONTAIN. MAYBE THE INFO CAME FROM A CIRCA 1930'S W.P.A. SURVEY. I USUALLY DON'T DOCUMENT THIS TYPE OF INFO. I THINK THE GRAVE RELOCATION INFO CAME FROM THE HISTORY OF CHICKASAW POINT - THEIR CLUBHOUSE LIBRARY HAS A COPY OF THE BOOK. GARY FLYNN AT [email protected] MIGHT REMEMBER FOR SURE... I am asking as those families connect to my wife's family and it may make a difference as to who is buried with those Clevelands that are still in the Welcome Center. Wander why they didn't move all of the people to that church? EXPENSE. $600-800 PER GRAVE. I have lots of questions on these folks. You have done opened another "can of worms" for me. And that is good. It will just make more proof on these guys. David Paul M Kankula - nn8nn <[email protected]> wrote: On 22-Apr-1998, 138 unknown/unmarked/unreadable Welcome Center graves were relocated to The Beaverdam Baptist Church in Fair Play. The posted tombstone inscription cemetery recording was done 25-years ago. It's possible that some of the info came from obituary notices and that descendants didn't want to waste money on purchasing grave markers. Gary Flynn updated the recording, according to what he saw.
