Capt William L. LITCHFIELD and Andrew J. LIITCHFIELD, b. 4 Dec 1822, d. 27 Dec 1906, apparently were from Little River, Horry Co, SC. (W. L. is abt 10 years older.) Capt W. L. LITCHFIELD and his wife are buried at the Little River Methodist Church Cemetery in the HOLDEN plot. I think W. L. and A. J. are brothers and that a John LITCHFIELD, d. abt 1844, whose Estate was probated in Horry Co, is their father (I hope.) In their lifetime both W. L. and A. J. lived in Brunswick Co, NC around Lockwood Folly and, I think, Little River, SC. John LITCHFIELD appears to be the oldest LITCHFIELD found in Horry County and about the only one at that time--my only proof so far. I am tracing the A. J. LITCHFIELD line and am trying to prove that John LITCHFIELD of Horry Co is his father. Their are a few LITCHFIELDS along the NC coast and a few in Berkeley Co. A. J. LITCHFIELD left Brunswick Co, as an old man and died in Berkeley Co. A. J's first wife was Susan from Brunswick Co. and he married Matilda in Berkeley Co. They are buried at Berea Methodist Church Cemetery in Bethera, Berkeley Co, SC. W. L. had a boat and I suspect was up and down the inland waterway. He might have seen active duty -- in the Conf. Navy?-- during the Civil War? Any help or insight will make many folks in the LITCHFIELD Family happy. Thanks, Al of Raleigh, NC (My wife is one of these Litchfields.)
