Posted on: The SCRoots Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/Sponsor/SCRoots/482 Surname: Swinton's ------------------------- I am trying to determine link if any to the Swinton's of South Carolina. My gggrandfather was named "Swinton" Erasmus Blackwell. His mother was Sarah Ivey who married or wss the consort of Jacob Blackwell. Sarah was the daughter of James Ivey and Mourning Drigger or Drugger. I do not know this to be true on her mother's side. What makes me wonder about this is that they named their son "Swinton" which causes me to think that sometimes parents would name their children the mother's maiden name. Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks.>

Some months ago I downloaded a file called <<Descendants of Claude Serre'>>. Now, I do not know where I found the file. This file shows Chicken as the English equivalent of Challion. This is questionable at best, and no support has been found in any French dictionary of which we are aware. I am wondering if this naming has been corrected in a later Serre' file. The Chicken family were not French but English, and I suspect that Col. George Chicken {senior], the progenitor of the family in SC, was from the large Chicken families who were in either Northumberland or Durham in the 1400s or earlier. It is certainly a possibility that the name <<Chicken>> is an anglization of a French name before that, perhaps Norman. However, this has not been shown. The Chicken family of SC named a large number of their daughters <Catherne>, so care must be exercised to identify each one. As examples, Catherine Chicken, the daughter of Col.George Chicken Senior, married Noah Serre' junior, the grandson of Claude. Catherine Chicken, a granddaighter of George Senior married Andrew Dewees. Catherine Chicken, the only known child of George Chicken Junior and his second wife, Lydia Child, married Benjamin Simons, the younger. Lydia Child Chicken married Elias Ball, junior or II, if I have the right Elias Ball, after George Chicken's death. I do not see a name and address for the author in this file, and I would very much like to corresponded with the author. Has anyone identified the Challion family? Ed T of PGH [the senior <Chicken chaser>]

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION: What's the difference between the SCRoots-L and SCRoots-D list modes? RESPONSE: -L means List mode. -D means Digest mode. In List mode (-L) you get each message that is sent to the list as soon as it is received by the list server. So, in List mode you get each individual email message. In List mode the messages include the automatic Forum taglines but do not include the Digest header. In List mode you get more email more often, but they are typically much smaller in size than the Digests. In Digest mode (-D) you receive a compilation of messages sent in one email. Digests are sent either when a pre-determined amount of time has passed since the last Digest was mailed (e.g. 72 hours), or when a pre-set Digest email size threshold has been reached (e.g. 32k). The Digests include an automatic Digest header but do not include the automatic Forum taglines. In Digest mode you get fewer email messages less often, but they are usually larger in size than the List mode messages.

Does anyone out there have a CICERO FANT married to MARY JANE MOORE from Oconee Co, SC, listed in their names? Mary Jane Moore was my grandfather's only sister. I'm wanting to find out about her & her husband & children (if any). I understood that they had moved to Texas. In fact Mary Jane died while I was a child (in the late 40s or early 50s) & left my mother a very small amount of money, but I don't know where she lived. I only knew that it was in Texas. Carol F.
