Don't know if this is the same line, but they came from VA> SC> TN?> AL. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~sharrison/d0003/g0000078.html#781 -----Original Message----- From: NNoe1313@aol.com [mailto:NNoe1313@aol.com] Sent: Sunday, June 15, 2003 10:25 AM To: SCSPARTA-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [SCSPARTA] RE: "The Carolina Spartan" Issues: December, 1881-ANDERSON mention Hello listers: I am trying to trace me ANDERSON family back from TN to SC. The listing below from the transcript of "The Carolina Spartan" is about an ANDERSON family. Does anyone connect to this family? I really don't anymore than the fact that my 3rd greatgrandfather and his brother were born in Spartanburg Co SC . HIRAM KING ANDERSON was born 1787 and JAMES was born 1793. By 1798 the father, WILLIAM and the family had migrated to Davidson Co TN where they lived and grew up. Stories told say that WILLIAM ANDERSON was not born in SC but came after the Revolution from VA. <<TIssue: December 7, 1881 Tuesday morning just before day, fire was discovered in the barn of Mr. Frank L. ANDERSON. He lost about 44 bales of cotton, all of his corn, fodder and hay. He perhaps had 1,500 bushels of corn on hand. His barn was a new and large one and cost quite a sum of money to build. His whole loss is fully $6,000. The origin of the fire is supposed to be incendiary. It is probably that some one helped himself to a few bales of cotton and then fired the barn in order to hide his tracks.>> If this info is meaningful to anyone, please email me at NNoe1313@aol.com as I have a hole in the family at this juncture I'd like to fill, and much info on the 2 brothers and their families dwon to present time that I am very willing to share.
