SC Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/SC/Colleton/1033 Surname: ------------------------- Not sure about Ladsons in Colleton Co., SC, but there is a book, "The Ladson Family of South Carolina and Georgia 1678-1900" by Henry Gordon Fishburne. 1995. The Reprint Company, Spartanburg, S.C. Copies, I believe, can be obtained from the author at 35 Loring Place, Sumter, SC 29150. The price I paid for my copy was $30.50. This book mentions Bianca Ladson and Sikes Collins, and gives Bianca's ancestry back to 1679. I too am a Ladson descendant, from Isaac Larrimore [Not Lee] Ladson's Uncle James P. Ladson. Julian R.
