I have been searching for my gggrandfather, John White GIST, and my ggrandfather, George White GIST (1847-1909), without success in Williamsburg Co. George married Leonora RICHBURG (1848-1922). They lived on a farm outside Greeleyville. I desided to try another spelling, GUESS. In the 1850 census, I found a family that cound be them. On pages 117b and 119a file name pg 0115a.txt. Guess, John - 34 - Male - Laborer (John Gist ???) Guess, Rachel - 23 - Female Guess, L. A. - 6 - Female Guess, G. W. W. - 3 - Male (George White Gist ???) Guess, Susan T. - 5/12 - Female Does anyone have this family in their line? I have George White Gist's descendants for 6 generations. I also have Leonora Richburg's parents and siblings. I definitely have George and Leonora in the 1870 census living in the Hope TWP with their four kids. He is listed as GUIST. Thanks. Tom Keefe
