Hey, Margie I noticed that your last name is JACKSON-I have been trying to get info on a MARY (POLLY) JACKSON who married DANIEL WORTHY in 1840-they were from Chester. One of their daughter's names was: SARAH,called SALLEY or SALLY. POLLY seems to have passed away after 1880 and DANIEL died after 1910 in WOODRUFF, SC. They kept moving between CHESTER, UNION and WOODRUFF-would appreciate any info on the WORTHY and JACKSON FAMILIES. Thanks, Mary Louise Worthy P.S. This is actually for my husband-EDDY WORTHY-I am researching his family-I have found a good bit on the WORTHY'S but am at a dead end with the JACKSON'S. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Margie" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, May 11, 2006 5:50 PM Subject: Re: [SCCHEST2] Fishing Creek Presbyterian Church & Cemetery > Apologies to all.
