Petition from the "Inhabitants of the Little >PeeDee" with the COMPLETE LIST OF ALL OF THE 200 SIGNERS. Of interest >is the number of names which are associated with Moses PARKER and his >descendants. The original Petition from the SC Archives was typed by >Jo Church DICKERSON and submitted to the Marion Co. GenWeb page. >Since then it has been posted on various lists. It is of note that >the Petition with ONLY ONE SIGNER, Tristram THOMAS, appears in the set >of books, "The State Records of South Carolina - Journals of the House >of Representatives 1787-1788", pages 352, 353 and 354, January 25, >1788. The "action taken" by the Representatives as shown on page 354 >was "Ordered That it be referred to the Committee on the Inland >Navigation" is information in addition to that shown in the Petition. > I've made a "second alphabetized list" of the signers to >facilitate looking up names - it follows the list from Ms. DICKERSON >using numbers to move back and forth between the lists. Both complete >lists have been added to my genealogical program, TMG, with a "tag" >referring to the two lists for all of the individuals I have in my >program. >Tom EDWARDS >. >. >E-MAIL >From: [email protected] >To: [email protected] Subject: [SCMARION-L] N Date: Saturday, >August 22, 1998 2:37 AM > 1788 PETITION - Inhabitants of Little Pee Dee > Transcribed by Jo Church Dickerson from a Xeroxed copy of a >document found in SC Dept of Archives & History. 1994.
