I am trying to figure out what happened to widow Mary Porter (see below) and her children. In 1860 they were in Fairfield; do not know where they were in 1870 or if Mary remarried. By 1870 son Abner might have left the household. 1860 Census, Fairfield County, South Carolina, page 230, dwelling number 537: Mary Porter, age 38, female Abner Porter, age 11, male Mary Porter, 4, female Does anyone have access to the 1870 SC census? Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance, Glenna Kinard ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Researching: (1) Porter, McCants, Cobb, Martin, Rawlinson, Gill, Higgins, Scott, Harrison, Fetner; (2) Bryant, McDade, Dillard, Tolleson, Wells, Baxter, Eaves; (3) Kinard, Wise, Thaxton, Vickers, Patton, Hubbard, Wilkins, Long/Lang, Latta (Branch 28), Mauldin, Dismukes.

Hello Ed Taylor, Tried e-mailing you and it bounced, so bear with me if this is a repeat. Believe my GGG Grandmother, Nancy Chapman French was a daughter of Giles Chapman of Newberry County, but have not been able to really nail down the facts. Nancy lived in Arkansas and I am descended from a daughter, Frances French Bagley of Independence County. Frances died in 1853. Have found lots of information on early Chapmans and am still trying to make a definite connection to Giles and his line back to Yorkshire, England. Thanks for your message and have a great New Year! Grace

I am told that he was Irish and both of his parents were Irish.I see where someone else is researching the Davis family in Fairfield Cty. If you come across these names, I would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks...
