Elizabeth BARKSDALE was the daughter of George Barksdale of Christ Church Parish, SC. She married 1) John S. Wingood, 2) Andrew HIBBEN. She died 11 March 1781. I believe this family to be descended from John BARKSDALE who was born ca 1657/8 at London, England and died 1727 at Charleston, SC; buried 28 August 1727 in Christ Church Parish. He had three sons, that I know of, by his first wife Sarah PALMER; Charles BARKSDALE, Thomas BARKSDALE and John BARKSDALE and two sons, that I know of, by his second wife Sarah ISAAK; George BARKSDALE (believed to have died young) and Isaac BARKSDALE (moved to GA). This is from copies of a book, BARKSDALE FAMILY HISTORY AND GENEALOGY by Captain John A. BARKSDALE, that my Grandmother had in her family genealogy file. If anyone can help me find a home for my George BARKSDALE of Christ Church Parish, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks! Fredreica speyer@bellsouth.net

Can anyone help me with the ancestors of William SLOAN!?! I have the following Descendants of William Sloan: Generation No. 1 1. WILLIAM1 SLOAN He married ELIZABETH1. Notes for WILLIAM SLOAN: Date: Friday, 18 February 2000 From: Frank msg: I have this William Sloan and his siter Catherine as siblings of "Pvt/Capt" David Sloan (of County Down Ireland) later of Old Pendleton, Anderson County, South Carolina. This is the first time I've heard of William Sloan and Mary's daughter, Catherine. William Sloan did have two females in his household in 1790. I'm pretty sure there is a William, jr., and possibly sons David and John, based on some real estate transactions. Children of WILLIAM SLOAN and ELIZABETH are: 2. i. WILLAIM2 SLOAN. 3. ii. DAVID SLOAN, b. Abt. 1753, County Down, Ulster, Scotland; d. October 09, 1826, Old Pendleton District, SC. iii. CATHERINE SLOAN1. Generation No. 2 2. WILLAIM2 SLOAN (WILLIAM1) He married MARY PERKINS1 in Wilkes County, North Carolina. Child of WILLAIM SLOAN and MARY PERKINS is: i. CATHERINE3 SLOAN1, b. February 22, 1788, Greensboro, Alabama (Hale County)1; d. May 03, 1859, Greensboro, Alabama (Hale County)1; m. DR. RICHARD H. HARRISON1; b. April 03, 1786, Richland, South Carolina1; d. August 03, 1829, Greensboro, Alabama (Hale County)1. Richard Harrison married Catherine SLoan, the daughter of Willaim Sloan, who with his wife, Mary; his brother, David; and his sister Catherine emigrated from Ireland and settled in South Carolina. Richard's wife, Catherine, is said to have been a "beautiful, brilliant and accomplished woman." After Richard's death, Catherine managed the property and the family together until the surviving children reached maturity. Catherine and Richard, and three of their children, James, John and Claracy, who died in their youth, are buried in the Harrison Family burying ground on the plantation above Greensboro; and also Catherine's mother, Mary Perkins Sloan, who died Mary Foster, she having married a second time. Notes for CATHERINE SLOAN: Richard and Catherine's first two children were born in South Carolina; they then moved to Alabama and settled five miles above Greensboro in Greene, now Hale, County. James, John and Claracy died in their youth. The remaining eight children lived to maturity and married. The lines of Elizabeth, Catherine Sloan and Josiah are extinct. Notes for DR. RICHARD H. HARRISON: Richard Harriosn was born April 2, 1786, at "Woodland," the home of his mother's brother, Wade Hampton, on the Congaree River, five miles from Columbia, South Carolina. This house, the the property of Frank Hampton, Wade's grandson, was burned by Sherman's Army in 1865, after having stood for almost 100 years. Richard was educated for a physician and was a surgeon with the rank of Colonel in teh army during the War of 1812, serving under Jackson at New Orleans. He accumulated a handsome property in land and slaves, which he left to his wife at his death, August 3, 1829, just before the birth of his youngest child.[AtkinsGENEALOGY.FTW] 3. DAVID2 SLOAN (WILLIAM1)2,3,4 was born Abt. 1753 in County Down, Ulster, Scotland4, and died October 09, 1826 in Old Pendleton District, SC4. He married (1) SUSAN MAJORS5,6. She was born July 29, 1761 in Culpepper Co., VA7,8, and died September 05, 1853 in Anderson Co., SC9,10. He married (2) SUSANNAH MAJORS11 178211. She was born July 29, 1763 in County Down, Ulster, Scotland11, and died September 05, 1853 in South Carolina11. Notes for DAVID SLOAN: Served as a Captain in North Carolina during the American Revolution. Received a grant of 2100 acres in 1791 on the Seneca River in SOuth Carolina. Information of David Sloan, 1753-1826, Ulster and SC as per posting by Ray P. Carter on GenForum Sloan Family Genealogy Forum dated March 29, 1999. Beverly Shuler wrote: Mary "Polly" Perkins Sloan and her Brother-in-law, David Sloan, had a lawsuit involving the slaves that David Sloan was keeping for William (suit after William's death). Polly won. David and Polly don't seem to have kept in touch after that. Polly then married Josiah Foster, also believed to have been from Pendleton, SC. A genealogist located the marriages of David Sloan to Susannah Majors; William Sloan to Polly Perkins; and 1st) Catherine Sloan to John Montgomery and 2nd) "Caty Mungummery" to John Cleveland, all in or near 1784. Between 1784 and 1786, William and David and more of their relatives, and including the Clevelands, moved to Franklin County, Georgia. The land grants they received were adjoining ones on Coneross and Martin's Creek. William had served as either a Captain or a Lieutenant from Morgan District, Wilkes County, NC and David as a Private. William got 400 acres and William got 200 acres as bounty for their service. The STate of Georgia was granting land in both SOuth Carolina and Georgia to Revolutionary War soldiers from North Carolina who didn't get land in Tennessee. Benjamin Cleveland may have been the leader of this group of settlers. In 1787, that part of Franklin County, Georgia, which was between the Tugaloo and Keowee Rives, was set off into South Carolina, Pendleton District. There seems to be no record of a brother of William, David and Catherine named Benjamin. David Sloan had a son named Benjamin Franklin Sloan who was prominent in South Carolina; therefore, there have been many Benjamin Sloans since. Searching the County Down List trying to find out the townland that they came from in County DOwn, Ireland, and whether they were Presbyterian, ARP or Church of Ireland (Episcopalian). Believes they may have come from Comber or Killinchy Parish which is very close to Comber on the Ards Peninsula. NOTE: Beverly says that David Sloan ANd Susannah had 10 or more children. She has 3 that Ray Carter did not list: William who died at age 21 and WIlliam who married Eliza Hackett; Catherine; and James Madison. More About DAVID SLOAN: Immigration: Abt. 1774, Children of DAVID SLOAN and SUSAN MAJORS are: i. JOHN3 SLOAN, b. 1783, Duplin Co., NC; d. Abt. 1863; m. Duplin Co., NC. ii. DAVID SLOAN, b. May 19, 1787; d. October 29, 1831; m. NANCY TRIMMIER. Notes for DAVID SLOAN: David and Susan were twins. Information per Beverly Shuler email Mon, 21 Feb 2000 iii. SUSAN SLOAN, b. May 19, 1787 d. November 09, 1849; m. ROBERT BRUCE. iv. ELIZABETH SLOAN, b. April 16, 1788, 96th Dist., SC; d. November 09, 1849, Pendleton, Anderson Co., SC.; m. JESSE STRIBLING65, 1805. v. THOMAS MAJORS SLOAN, b. May 12, 1789; d. September 08, 1849. vi. REBECCA SLOAN, b. 1794; d. 1867. vii. CATHERINE SLOAN, b. December 06, 1802; d. October 1868. viii. WILLIAM3 SLOAN, b. 1783; d. age 21. ix. NANCY SLOAN, b. 1789; m. COL. JOSEPH TAYLOR. x. MARY SLOAN, b. 1792. xi. BENJAMIN FRANKLIN SLOAN, b. 1796. If anyone has additonal information or corrections in the above, please let me know. Thanks!

I apologize if you receive this message more than once but I am sending it to all the list that may cover the area and people in question. I am searching for information on the JOHN MARTIN- SARAH DUNN family that was living in the area during the subject dates. Their daughter ELIZABETH MARTIN married WILLIAM RICHEY around 1800. I have quite a file on the DUNN family, however, I have been unable to tie John to other members of the MARTIN family in the area. Any help would be appreciated.

In the message below, I noticed the word "married ...... OR ..... consort of" The word "consort" by definition means wife or husband. In the early days, they used the word "consort" to designate that one was married and the word "relict" to indicate that one was a widow. These words were used especially in obituaries and on tombstones to tell whether their spouse was living at the time of their death. Hope this helps, Melba -----Original Message----- From: R. D.
