Here is a Nathan McAlister who fits the time frame. When did yours move to Tippah Co.? Do you have a list of spouses for his children? kw 1850 Anderson Dist. SC, western subdivision, p. 202B #662: Nathan McAllister 68 250 Ireland, George W. Long 27 SC ----------- > > Nathan McAlister is known to have immigrated from Ireland and to have married Isabella Mitchell b. Feb 18, 1785, who also immigrated from Ireland. Their first child, Samuel Mitchell McAlister was born in Anderson Dist. SC on Dec 07, 1804. They later moved to Tippah Co, MS. Other children were Andrew, William, Nancy, Harriett Isabella and Eliza Jane. > >I have found Nathan McAlister mentioned in the abstracts of wills of Anderson County for two different Andrew McAlisters, one probated in 1832 and the other in 1833, apparently father and son, Nathan being the son's brother. I would be interested to know if this is the same Nathan as my ancestor, the subject of this query.
