    1. [SCSUMTER-L] Coogler and Eleazer families in Scott's book
    2. Judy, The mention of the Coogler family is when he writes of his visit to Spring Hill, Saluda, etc.: " From Granby I returned home, and proceeded the next week to collect in the Fork, at George Lorick's, Spring Hill (then kept by Thomas L. Veal), and Col. Jacob Counts', on the road from Columbia to newberry, and at Shealy's and Fred. Wise's on Saluda. At Lorick's I met the Shulers,Metzes, Huffmans, Leaphearts, Loricks, COOGLERS and others whose proximity to the Columbia market enhanced the value of their lands far beyond what it would have been at a greater distance." On the next page he is talking about Spring Hill: "At Spring Hill the favorite amusement was throwing long bullets or rolling small cannon balls by hand.The leading families in the neighborhood were the Riveses, Williamsons, Freshleys, ELEAZERS, Slices, Lindler, Busbys and others."
