I am working on my ANDERSON family of Chester County and Fairfield County, SC, and would love to hear from anyone with any kind of connection to these folks. Here is a bit of info: Thomas ANDERSON, born 1832 in Maryland, married in 1858 to Nancy Jane RICHARDSON (b 1836 in SC). They have three sons, all born in Simpson Community of Fairfield County, SC: Samuel John ANDERSON (b 1858) James Reuben ANDERSON (b 1862) Joel Thomas ANDERSON (b 1865) Widowed mother and two youngest sons are found on 1880 Fairfield Co census living next door to her mother and younger sister. Nancy Jane RICHARDSON is the daughter of Abram Boity RICHARDSON and his wife Nancy (unk surname). Thomas ANDERSON is said to have died 1877, and wife died 1884. We know of no burial site for these folks. Eldest son Samuel John ANDERSON lived in New York City nearly all of his adult life, and apparently never married. At his death in 1933, he was brought home to SC and buried in Richardson cemetery in Fairfield County, SC. It has been said that youngest son Joel Thomas ANDERSON wed twice. First wife is reported to be Ella GRIST. No information is known and apparently no children (I would like to know more!). Second wife is Julia Catherine ALBRIGHT and they had three children. Joel and Julia are buried at Evergreen Cemetery in Chester. James Reuben ANDERSON married Bertha Monteith HOAGLAND and they resided in Chester County, seven children. Both are buried at Chester's Evergreen Cemetery. Is there a connection to the Thomas Anderson, age 65, on the 1860 Chester county census? He is living with Nancy (age 36), Hiram J (age 18), Eliza J (16), Nancy M. (14), Jonathan S (10), Jno Wesley (7) and Elizabeth M (3/12). Many Questions!!!!! Would be very interested in corresponding with anyone with any kind of connection to any of these ANDERSON, RICHARDSON, GRIST, ALBRIGHT, HOAGLAND. I will answer all inquiries.
