I have directions to the TRAYNHAM cemetery, but I don't know anything about the Z.R. initials. I'm sure I only paid attention to my folks, and I don't know of a connection to the RICE family.

We recently traced our Rice ancestors in southern Arkansas to Zenus. His daughter Temperance who married Benjamin Thomason was my gggrandmother. Her brother Vincent also had a daughter Temperance, who apparently went to Arkansas from Georgia at the same time. She, her sister and a brother were living beside her aunt Temperance Rice Thomason in the 1860 census in Arkansas, but no parents Vincent and Rachel listed then. We specifically looked for a Zenus Rice, because Temperance's sister Susanna Atkins named her son Zenus, and it is so unusual we figured it had to be a family name. Do you know where Traynum Cemetery is? Or where the boulder with Z.R. carved in it is located?

Looking for descendants or researchers of Zenus Rice. Would like to determine whether or not there is any relationship between Zenus, Vincent, WP, Lewis, John Jr, and/or John Sr. All lived in the same general Golden Grove, Reedy Fork, Seaborn Estate area south of Greenville.

Was just checking 1790 SC census. Elizabeth Farmer in 96 District, Edgefield Co., p 67, 2 males over 16, 2 males under 16, 2 females. Others in the index are Benjamin, Ezekiel, Fred, John, Thomas, and Widow. Other spellings are Farmar (John and Thos) and Farmor (Benjamin and Francis). E.

hi there, Can you please tell me if Absolem and Jane had a son named Absolem who was born 1825? Also, are there any Garland JOHNSON'S in this family?

Lavelle Hughes died in or about 1927. She is buried somewhere around Enoree or Cross Anchor. Does anyone have information on her? Jane

"My" Seth Lewis was born in December 1856, so I don't think he's the one you're seeking.

I have a Seth Lewis in my family line I don't know much about him because I haven't found much on him. All I know is he lived in Spartanburg County at sometime, he was a justice of the peace and had at least one son named Anthony who married Cecila Dillard and had who had at least one son Henry Jefferson Davis Lewis b. July 21, 1862 d. Sept. 12, 1948 and is buried at Boiling Springs Baptist Church. He married Sarah Etta Solesbee b. abt. 1859 d. april 1954 and is buried at Zion Hill Baptist Chuch in Spartanburg. Sarah and Henry had 8 children on being my greatgrandfather Joseph Jehu Lewis b. March 17, 1890 d. Sept. 10, 1964 he married Fannie Belle Easler b. Nov. 13, 1891 d. March 14, 1986 both are buried at Walnut Hill Baptist Church, Campobello, SC Fannie and Joe had 10 Children one being my Grandmother Esther Mae Lewis Humphries. Any Help would be greatly apreciated. Thank you Paul H. Strange
