Julie and anyone with these names in Charleston, Georgetown or Williamsburg SC, I am doing the best I can (which is pretty badly) at tracking down connections with my early NORTON family who had doctors and ministers among them and lived in Georgetown, SC; Williamsburg, SC; and Charleston in the period before 1851. A couple of NORTONS married HONOURS and I am hoping you or someone else may know about them. ANNE NORTON b ca 1798 probably Georgetown, married a LEE RENTZ in Charleston before 1816. They had a daughter named MARIA RENTZ who married LAWRENCE HONOUR (I do NOT have the dates on this, but I believe LAWRENCE HONOUR would have been in the age group to have been in the CSA. Please let me know if your HONOUR has any Rentz and especially NORTON contacts! Thank you so much for looking. Fingers crossed, Carole Caroline Burnett Cook g-g-g granddaughter of Dr. Samuel Edwin Norton In a message dated 4/17/00 9:30:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time, SCCHARLE-D-request@rootsweb.com writes: << Tony and Julie Howell <tjhowell@bellsouth.net> To: SCCHARLE-L@rootsweb.com Message-ID: <38FA33A2.BEE3E19@bellsouth.net> Subject: Re: [SCCHARLE] Re Church of Rev. I. H. Honor Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit hello mary alice - thank you so much for your reply. what a surprise...i received not only your reply but one from the sc room at the charleston county public library on this subject. (yours was more involved, and i thank you for that.) to add a bit of the history that the ccpl gave me, as follows: "after the civil war, the wentworth street church had been badly damaged by shelling and the church lacked enough money for repairs. it merged with the zion lutheran church, who needed a larger building but couldn't afford the extremely high prices of the post-civil war time. the wentworth medhodist church became a lutheran church but honour would still have been a methodist minister in 1848." i would love to have a photocopy of the page and the church address. re the picture of rev. honour, if you do not have access to someone with a scanner, you might contact a good photo shop (not drugstore-type) and see if they could scan the picture and save it as a "jpeg" file on a floppy disk. thanks again for the info. have a nice day. julie thames howell, jax, fla
