Could any of you help me? My great-grandparents were Eddie King and Margarett (maybe Marguerite) (maiden name unknown) from that area of South Carolina. Jo, you mentioned an Indian church and cemetery on Leach's Creek. Do you know if Eddie and Margarett King could be buried there? Are you close enough that some time you could swing by and check for me? (I now live in Cincinnati, Ohio.) Eddie and Margarett had at least two children, Lonnie King and Nettie King (1896-1958). About 1930 Lonnie and his wife and daughter were living in Saint Paul's, Robeson County, NC. Nettie married Joseph Bowden Neely, Sr. (1888-1928) from Bayboro, Horry County, SC, and they moved to Savannah, Georgia where both their sons and all their grandchildren were born. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Our genealogy page is at: http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/d/o/n/Sharlotte--N-Donnelly and my King information is under the report on "Ancestors of Joseph Bowden Neely, Jr." Thanks so much!
