Dolores: Because of your EPPS connection, I guess you and I are distant cousins-in-law. Since you said that you had the EPPS lineage already, I guess you are aware of the EPPS genealogy on file at the Sumter County Genealogical Society. I have entered everyone in that genealogy into my computer. I noticed that Mildred KENNEDY is listed as marrying Samuel PRINGLE, but no children are listed. My grandfather, Charles Jones EPPS, is listed as well as my grandmother, Agnes KLEIN, but no children are listed for this marriage. Did you know that the wife of Joel Roberts POINSETT (minister to Mexico, and the person who introduced the poinsettia to the United States) was Mary IZARD PRINGLE, a widow? I don't know if she had any children by her first marriage. I know of none of Joel and Mary. I have a few PRINGLEs in my database. I just did a quick check and found 26 people with the name PRINGLE as either a surname or a middle name. The family connections are with the MAYRANT, ALSTON and SMITH families. Whenever I run across a person whose surname is the same as someone who married in to the families I am researching, I copy the information on that person, just in case I need it later. Frequently, I do make a connection, sometimes several years later. I see that you are in Myrtle Beach. I was raised in Conway, and inherited my mother's house down there (I live right outside of Baltimore, MD). My husband and I shall be down there during Thanksgiving week. My name is in the Horry County phone book, if you would like to compare genealogy notes by phone. Judith Reesor Hutchinson
