Funds for this Personal Estate come from payments received from the United States Agent in Charleston and are in lieu of bounty land. Paid as balance of pay of the said deceased, the part coming to said children. Eliza married a James Gridley and settlement of her portion was made in 1825. Final settlement was made to Mahala in 1832 when she became of age. Jane is shown in 1820 Census in Greenville as Jane Billings. My second great-grandfather was Joseph Coleman, also shown on the Greenville Census of 1820. Let me know if you can find a relationship between the two.
