I am looking for detailed information on BOTH owners and slaves of Round O Plantation. Anyone with records, photos, stories, or ANY information on Round O--from any perspective--please contact me! 2) Any information on the family of John Malichi Stanfield b: March 24, 1821 3) Any information on John M. Stanfield's wife Sara (?). Was she Cherokee Indian? 4) Any information on Jesse Thomas (Simmons) Williams,born in Walterboro, Colleton Co. in 1838. Jesse's mother was Fereba (?). She married a Williams after the death of her 1st Husband, last name SIMMONS, with whom she had had Jesse. Jesse reared as a Williams and served in CSA cavalry. A researcher believes Simmons 1st name may have been Benjamin. Jesse Thomas Williams married Henrietta Stanfield. I am currently researching these items for a book I am writing on plantation life in pre-Civil War times. Also, my personal interest comes from the fact that Jesse Thomas Williams was my great grandfather. Any information would be appreciated!! Michael Williams Atlanta, GA USA mewill72@bellsouth.net

GOD BLESS AMERICA! Hello, Janet! I would bet money on it. Info I have found at http://www.familysearch.org indicate: James Roberts - born 1784 in SC - buried in Swift Creek Cemetery, Union Co, Fl Father is James Roberts - born 1758 in SC Married Temperance Davis - born 1790 in Whippy Swamp, SC - buried in Polk Co, FL James Roberts (born 1784) & wife, Temperance Davis Roberts, were baptized in 1826 as members of Prince Williams Primitive Baptist Church, Beaufort Co, SC Children of James Roberts & Temperance Davis Roberts: 1. James Brince Roberts - born 1810 in SC 2. Celia Roberts - born 1812 in SC - buried in Polk Co, FL 3. William James Roberts - born 1816 in SC - buried in Polk Co, FL 4. Nathan Miles Roberts - born 1820 in Beaufort Co, SC - buried in Swift Creek Cemetery, Union Co, FL 5. John Irvin Roberts - born 1822 in SC Celia Roberts married William Harris.they are in the household of P. Harris for the 1850 census of Colleton Co, SC.they are in Beaufort Co, SC for prior census enumerations.by the 1870 census, they are in Polk Co, FL.this is my "Harris branch". Children of William Harris & Celia Roberts Harris (on the 1850 census): 1. Sarah A. Harris - age 20 - born 1830? 2. Tabitha Harris - age 18 - born 1832? 3. Maria Harris - age 16 - born 1834? 4. John Harris - age 12 - born 1838? 5. Celia Harris - age 10 - born 1840? 6. Mary C. Harris - age 4 - born 1846? 7. Irvin O'Bryan Harris - age 2 - born 1848? 8. Samuel Jamerson - age 16 - farm laborer (do not if related yet) Sarah A. Harris married John W. Costine of Colleton Co, SC Tabitha Harris married Cader Douglass in Columbia Co, FL Maria Harris never married - so all info indicates John Harris married Margaret E. Hancock in Polk Co, FL Celia Harris married Benjamin Tyre Mary C. Harris married Richard T. Caddin of Colleton Co, FL Irvin O. Harris married Susan Jane Glover in Polk Co, FL Franklin B. Harris (born after 1850) married Salome Jane Kirkland in Polk Co, FL Jane Deecles (born 1855?) - unknown relation - is on 1870 census with William & Celia Roberts Harris & is mentioned in the will of William Harris William H. Harris is on the 1850 census of Columbia Co, FL with the family of William James Roberts & his wife, Delila Harris Roberts.suspect that William H. Harris & Delila Harris Roberts are brother & sister and also children of William Harris & Celia Roberts Harris. Note: all the above finally settled in the area of Polk, Lake, Sumter counties of FL There are Florida land patents online for William Harris, John W. Costine, Cader Douglass, Cannon Tyre, & William J. Roberts in Columbia/Union Counties during 1855-1860. Several of these families are on the 1860 census for New River Co, FL There are Florida Confederate Pension Applications online for William H. Harris, John W. Costine, Richard T. Caddin, John M. Harris, & Benjamin Tyre... The key to all of this is James Roberts aka James I. Roberts - born 1784.his father, James Roberts aka James H. Roberts - born 1758 - we think is related to all the Roberts of Beaufort/Colleton/Jasper/Hampton Counties of SC, and could very well be a unknown/undocumented descendant of Rev. Pierre Robert. I also think there is an older connection between this "Harris" family to the "Roberts/Robert" family.because of the custom of inter-family marriages of that time period. Any clues/leads on these families will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time & assistance!!

Roberts Date: 30 Nov 2000 10:09 AM GMT Email: The information was givin by Alma Roberts Crapes Prentiss. She is a descendent of the first James Irvin Roberts. I have communicated with Vina, via email. The information comes from a book of over 350 Roberts and is consistant with the documents of the family in both Polk County and SC. I do showthat James Roberts along with others was born 11/21/1784, first son of James Henry Roberts and that he is burried as aare other Roberts' aat Mt. Zion, Swift Creek Cemetary. I do not have a reference for his mother, but his wife is Temperence and I have seen her grave many times since a small chile and most recently a few weeks ago. He had 5 chilren, most burried at Mt Olive as you suggest, but William, of which I am from is burried at Green Pond, the oldest Jame Brice, buried in SC

GOD BLESS AMERICA! Hello! i am trying to identify the "book" referenced in this posting by judy crabb roberts - that contains info on rev. pierre robert... do you know which book has info on this family?? or anyone that is actively researching this family?? thank you for your time & assistance!! gail harris Posted By: Judy Crabb Roberts Email: Subject: Re: ROBERTS > TN >SC Post Date: May 26, 1999 at 14:06:04 Rev. Pierre Robert was b.1656, St Imier, Switzerland (son of Daniel b,1630, Aberystwyth, Wales) was a Huguenot preacher. He married (not a Rebecca)but Jeanne Braye, b. 1660, Basil, Switzerland. Rev. Pierre Robert along with his wife and his followers sailed to America, landing in 1686 at Charlestown, SC. They lived in St. James, French Santee, SC. In 1706 Rev. Pierre founded the first Huguenot Church at Charlestown, French Santee, SC. There were 2 entrances to the church, one for the English and one for the French. Rev Pierre and his wife Jeanne Braye Robert had three sons, Jean (John), Elias, and Pierre Jr. Rev. Pierre Robert died in 1715 and Jeanne died abt. 1717. I descend from their son Jean (John) Robert. It was Jean who changed his name to the American *John* and also added the *s* to Robert. Pierre Jr., kept the Robert name without the *s* This family is well documented.I have a copy of the old Huguenot Book from the Huguenot Society that gives all the information for this family. I also have photo's of the original Church at St. James,French Santee, One of the earliest settlements in SC. and refuge for French Huguenots. St. James, Santee Parish was a major agricultural area containing a number of large scale rice plantations. At nearby Peach Tree Plantation, Jonathan Lucas, Sr. introduced a water mill for beating rice around 1787, which gave an impetus to rice culture in the area. I also have a photo of the only Independent Huguenot Church in the US in Charleston, SC. that contains a commemorative plaque for Pasteur Pierre Robert.
