Hi, I can tell you that Newton Brown had a sister Harriett that married Sanford Vandiver "Van" Vaughan. Van and his brother Avery Vaughan died in a Richmond, VA, hospital of typhoid fever and are buried in Hollywood Cem., in Richmond, VA. Newton Brown is buried behind and to the right of Van. Newton was with Orr's Sharpshooters during the Civil War...CSA. Shirley McCoy

A good source for newspapers and obits., with the Anderson Independent included, would be: <A HREF="www.ecola.com">www.ecola.com</A> The obits. would probably be archived back to 1995? Newspapers all over the US and other countries are included at this web site. Vivian

Please? Hi, I'm trying to find out about a man named Andrew Egger that lived in South Carolina between 1757 - 1762. I don't know much more about him except he was married to a woman named Mary and they had the following children; James E. Egger (1757), William Egger (1759). Mary Egger (1760), Andrew Egger (March 12, 1762). I think he died before 1800 because he doesn't show up on that census with his wife. Could you please suggest anything to help me? I've tried everything that I could think of up to this point. Thank you, bj

I was only kidding Donna. My Grandapa nor my Greatgrandpa never owned any slaves. My parents both picked cotton. My mother only went to the third grade in school and my dad to sixth grade because they were needed at home on the farm.

Hi Donna, this statement is very true.. I've got letters to prove it.. My ancestor William W. Martin wrote many letters to his wife Sarah Elizabeth and they talked at length about the status of the crops. There is no mention of any slaves in these letters, in fact she was quite put out that he was fighting at all when he was much needed at home. Sandy

Hey Ted, Some Southerners DID pick their own cotton and some even right along side their servants. :) Only less than 5% of the Southern people owned slaves. And the slaves did more than pick cotton. You wouldn't believe the list of needful skills they were taught to do and did well.
