Is anyone familiar with the name of Avatine? My gg grandmother's name was M. Emily Avatine McCants. I do not know if Avatine is a surname; I have not run across it as a given name. She was from Fairfield County SC and married Rev. Charles M. PORTER. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks for any clues, Glenna ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RESEARCHING: Porter, McCants, Cobb, Martin, Rawlinson, Gill, Higgins, Scott, Harrison, Fetner; and Bryant, McDade, Dillard, Tolleson, Wells, Baxter, Eaves; and Kinard, Wise, Thaxton, Vickers, Patton, Hubbard, Wilkins, Long/Lang, Latta (Branch 28), Mauldin, Dismukes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
