Hi Elsie, Thanks for getting back with me. Sounds like that could be my man. He died sometimes between the mid to late 20's, The last he appears in the census is 1910. If you would follow up on him, I'd sincerely appreciate it. Thanks millions!!! Pam

If the names I gave you are there, I'd be very interested in purchasing this document.

Elsie, I am looking for John Locklear, born late 1800s, John Clifton Locklear, b. 1903, Alston Locklear, b. 1901. John Locklear married Alice Brown somewhere around 1900. They had three children: Alston, John Clifton, and Ilee. Is there another spelling for Peguese, maybe without the "e" on the end? Thanks so much for your help. Micki Peguese

I have a William Thompson born circa 1788 died circa 1840. Married in 1819 a Susannah Goude. Alexander Thompson born 1784 I have a little more information on Alexander if this is the right one Diana

I am knew to all of this and I am trying to get information on my family that is traced to Kingstree, SC. Is there a way to gather information on my fathers family from that area that were African slaves? I know that such records may be difficult if not impossible to find but any info that you could give would be greatly appreciated. My grandfathers name was Samuel Montgomery, no date of birth given. I was told that his fathers name was possibly Benjamin Montgomery. Can you help me? Thank You V. Montgomery-Nyaga

Thanks, Elsie, Will you please check to see if there is a Harvey M (Marshall) Morris listed? He was born in 1835. And His wife, Mary E .Also, would someone born in 1807 be listed? (James Morris) thanks Dorothy Morris

Is it possible for us to find out if our ancestor is listed before purchasing the volume?

Do you know when your William was born. I have a William Thompson listed as a child of Alexander Thompson and Catherine Scott. The book I have doesn't list a date of birth or death for him but he had an older brother-Alexander Jr. that was born in 1786 and a younger sister-Jane that was born in 1812. Donna

Elsie, Thank you. Can you check that index for Peguese and Locklear for me? Thanks again. Micki Peguese

Elsie, Would you please check your records for Sidney Burgess and Willis Stukes. Pam

Dear Elsie: I have searched for 22+ years for data regarding my ggg grandfather, William T. Thompson who died in 1838. He was a resident of Williamsburg County. However, he worked as an overseer on two plantations in Georgetown County -- Friendfield (which is now part of Hobcaw Barony) and Waites Point (which may have been in Horry Cty). His employer was Mrs. Elizabeth Blyth, the aunt of Gov. Robert Allston. I would deeply appreciate any data regarding his parents and siblings. Thank you so much. Sincerely, Diana

I need some help! In the Probate Book for Williamsburg district by Three Rivers, it says: "McKnight, I.G. to Julian T [should be J] Bareneau, daughter of Isaac Bareneau, Esq. on the 20th ult. Georgetown Gazette, May 19, 1826." In looking at some of the old original records, I believe this should be J. G. McKnight and I believe it is the announcement of their marriage. J.G. McKnight would be John Gotea McKnight, hubby's grgrandfather. Does anyone have access to this paper and look it up for me??? I really would appreciate it. And thanks! JONI

Is your Willa C. Prosser a female? I was just looking in my records and came across a William Courtney Prosser b. 20 Sep 1918 could there be any connection?
