I'd like to know the name of the daughter of Rev. Martin too. My ancestor John McCaw of York doesn't seem to be closely related to this John McCaw who I think would have been one of the McCaws around Hopewell Church in Chester County. Most of them left to go to Indiana over the slavery issues, while my John McCaw in York was a big time slave owner. A John McCaw also had a grant in the Jackson Creek community of Fairfield County near the McCreights and other Scots Irish. -Pelham Lyles ----- Original Message ----- From: scchest2-request@rootsweb.com To: scchest2@rootsweb.com Sent: Wednesday, May 6, 2009 1:02:47 PM (GMT-0500) Auto-Detected Subject: SCCHEST2 Digest, Vol 4, Issue 69 Today's Topics: 1.

Janean, Sometimes - neighboring names can be a great help. Question: At the Library of Congress (seems like a 100 years ago) I was able to only quickly look at a copy of the book concerning Rev Martin and the church members who came to SC with him in their five ships. (Was the title: The Rev William Martin: 1772 - five ships and 467 families?) Anyway, at this time I was just starting on searching for info on my Joseph Telford family who had a land grant in (now) Chester Co., north of Rocky Creek. In the book it listed one of Martin's followers and provided the platt for his land, and the names of some people who had joining lands - and one man with joining land was a "Joseph Tilford" (an early error in spelling my surname) - and I am sure this Joseph was my g-g-g grandfather. However, I can no longer remember the exact name of this book about Martin and his church members, nor who authored the book. Do you know this info, and, and publisher of the book?

It is now clear that most of the Germans did not choose to settle on lands within the designated area. Instead, we find them widely scattered to the east and southeast, some as far as sixteen miles from the town site. Lt. Governor Bull reported that a town site was laid out for them twelve miles south ofNinety Six. Today, the village of Kirksey is situated at that approximate location, but it is morelikely that Bull was referring to Londonborough, fifteen miles southwest of Ninety Six, as the crow files. November, 1964, a marker with the title "Londonborough Settlement" was erected onthe west side of State Route 48 near the eastern boundary of the Zimmerman property eytvwt@ftc-i.net wrote: > Ulster-Scot Newsletter March 2009 > page 13 on the Rev Wm Martin with pics from Chester county SC > http://www.ulsterscotsagency.com/March09.asp > > > additional data: > Rev Wm Martin had a daughter ... > who had married John McCaw of York County but she predeceased her > father.

John Linn ?????? Is he living? Can we ask him!????? " that Richard Gladney was a Covenanter in that neighborhood.." There you go with the Gladney family... Presbyterianism was brought by Scottish plantation settlers to Ulster who had been strongly encouraged to emigrate by James VI of Scotland, later James I of England. An estimated 100,000 Scottish Presbyterians moved to the northern counties of Ireland between 1607 and the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. The Presbytery of Ulster was formed in 1642 separately from the established Anglican Church. Presbyterians, along with Roman Catholics in Ulster and the rest of Ireland... the first modern implementation of Presbyterianism was by the Geneva church under the leadership of John Calvin <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Calvin> in 1541.

Martin's church was called the "Talford" Graveyard (spelling should be Telford). I am looking for the graves of Joseph (died 1824) and Rachel Telford, who arrived in 1771 from Ireland, and received land on Rocky Creek. Also for the graves of their son Samuel Telford and his wife, Margaret McCreary (both died 1834). We have been to the site of the Rev. Martin's gravestone and marker, on his property. There is no evidence of other graves there. Is there a plat map (around 1772 - 1835) of the Rocky Creek - Beaver Dam Creek area, with the names of the owners of the land? Thanks for any information.

I don't know what the principal of Richbourg High School would offer in the way of information. There are a number of contacts who will likely respond to this listserve who will direct you to the location of the site of Rev. Martin's last church. I am presently out of town with no access to my email addresses, but will attempt to help you in future weeks on my return if you don't receive information before then.
