Posted on: Greenwood Co. SC Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/SC/Greenwood?read=11 Surname: BUCHANAN, ROSS, ARNOLD, GILBERT ------------------------- Seeking parents of William B. BUCHANAN who married Mary ROSS in 1841 Abbeville/Old 96. May have been from Greenwood County. Some say his name was John William BUCHANAN, but marriage records and census records (1850) say otherwise. He died c.1855 somewhere in Louisiana, and his widow settled with children in Marion County MS. Some frustrating clues.... One son was named Andrew Hartzog BUCHANAN. One daughter went by the nickname "Wickie" or "Wickum" or "Wickeron". The 1860 census of Marion County lists Mary ROSS as Mary GILBERT, so she may have remarried. The will of a William BUCHANAN who died c.1856 in Louisiana was executed in Abbeville County by his "brother-in-law Francis ARNOLD". This line has been lost for many years... please help!
