As most are aware, My Family.com now charges for what was once free pages. I deleted my account there but tonight I ran up on a free family site called ComeHome.net. The rules sound just like myfamily.com........does anyone know or use this site? I wonder if its Myfamily all over again. Cindy

Hi, Can anyone give me some info on the 28th SCVI Regiment? Thanks! Anna Feagin

David, There is a Oconee National Forest in Putnam/Jasper/Jones/Warren County areas of GA so that is probably where you need to look. Of course there is a Mountain Creek in Edgefield Co. SC too but no Oconee Forest. http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.GetDetail?tab=Y&id=1230071 and a little Mountain creek http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.GetDetail?tab=Y&id=1229927 David Payne -----Original Message----- From: David Casey [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, July 07, 2003 2:54 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [SCAnderson] Carey Cox, Sr. died 1814 (buried near Mountain Creek) Greetings, An ancestor of mine, Carey Cox Sr., a Revolutionary War soldier, died in 1814 (in Putnam Co., GA) but was buried on the plantation of his son Carey Cox, Jr. which was near present day Mountain Creek, SC (Anderson Co.) according to a website I found which reads: Carey Cox (Coxe) born: October 1736 in Orange County, Virginia died: 24 March 1814 in Stanfordville, Putnam County, Georgia "Stanfordville prior to 1840 was also called Devil's Half Acre, and was a place where gamblers, cockfighters, and drunkards came on weekends to drink, race, gamble and fight chickens and each other."

Pat, I am interested in the Fowlers in Anderson Co. SC too. I live in Anderson and my Fowlers moved here in early 1900s from Jackson Co. NC but they were in Oconee Co SC before that. I have some info on some Fowlers that were in Anderson Co. in late 1800s and early 1900s but can't seem to connect them to mine. Of course these were in Cherokee Co. GA before that and then in SC before that so you see these folks traveled around.

Just hazarding a guess, but I would think it means Oconee National which is in present-day Oconee Co., SC, and was earlier a part of Pickens Dist., and prior to that, a part of Old Pendleton Dist., SC. Hope this helps! It is an old Indian name and is pronounced w/both "o's" and the "e's" sounded as long letters (oh-kon-ee).

Turn left before Church of God building and then turn right just as you pass the church. The cemetery begins right behind the church and continues back beyond the tree line. Elaine

It is across from the Pelzer COG cemetery behind the church. A very nice well kept cemetery. Altho when I ventured across to the COG cemetery, I was able to walk a little bit of it where they started cutting the grass. The rest of the grass was waist high so I didn't venture for ticks and chiggers. Cindy
