    1. Re: [SCYORK-L] York County SC 1860 Census
    2. The information you have is very important in my search. You show that Sarah Camp (who was originally Sarah Jane Johnson) was born in York!!! I had always thought that she had been born in NC. Maybe that will give me a lead on her ancestry. I have been totally stumped by her ancestry. I know where she is buried, but since I live in Texas, and don't have access to any of the state records, chasing her down has been very difficult. David Camp

    1. Re: [SCYORK-L] Michel MARTIN VA>York SC
    2. It's possible your Michal Martin and Mary are Michal Martin, son of Michal Martin b. 1761 who married Mourning Manning b. 1762. They had the following children: Michal Martin b. 1780 m. Mary Bolin Manning Martin b. 10/2/1782 m. Bersheba Dover b. 1795 Morgan Martin Sr. b. 3/7/1784 m. Jane Ramsey Mary Martin b. 1786 never married Martha Martin b. 1788 m. Harvey Ramsey Mortical Martin ?? I am very interested in this family because my gggrandmother was Sarah Martin who married Wiley Griffin. Sarah would have been born about 1826 and she may be the daughter of Manning Martin and Bersheba Dover. Have no information on who the two young girls Delia and Sarah are, but possible even ggrandchildren! Michal and Mary lived very close to Childers and to Bolins (which adds to the idea that this Mary is Mary Bolin) in 1850 census. Janelle Dixon.

    3. For several years I have been trying to trace one Benjamin TAYLOR back further than Wilkes Co., GA., in the late 1780s. All without success. Recently I learned he had a brother, John. He and John married Fullilove sisters in York Co., SC., in the late 1780s. Wilkes Co. records show that John was from Rockingham Co., NC. I write this inquiry with the hope that someone, researching Taylor/SC records, may have come upon these lost (to me) TAYLORS. Any scrap of information would be relished.

    3. hello Louise and Bill and others, I just had to comment on this article. Yes I have some imfo. The Chief and or King was Chief ( King Haigler of the Catawbas Indians. They were friends with the whites. My descendency of Jonathon Barrett who suposedly was given a dau of Chief Haigler fro marriage and had Bathsheba, and Able. When the Indians of other tribes fought against the Catabas in late 1800's the whites took the women and ch of the Cataba tribe to Va with them for safe keeping. After Jonathon Barrett went to get his wife Jar Fly Jarman and ch but she had died and he mar a Henerson. Also the Mt that bears the name "BARRETTS MT>" was given the named after my 5th gr grandfather Jonathon BARRETT as he lived like a Indian and helped the Catabas and Whites. His Dau. Bathsheba Barrett mar to Samuel Oxford Jr, of the Oxford Landing etc there, They had a dau. Bathsheba Oxford who mar Jacob Byler 111 who was killed in his powder Mill explosion in abt 1804 In N C with 2 other family members. Their dau. Mary Polly Byler mar Anderson White ( 2nd mar) and had dau, who mar Robert Sylvanus Armstrong Barnett. Their son Anderson Barnett had John Robert Barnett ) MY GRANDFATHER B 7 OCT 1875, Grayson Co TX.) whose mother was Mary S (M) Lane, dau of Samuel Ronson Lane , descednadnt of REV TIDENCE LANE , famous TNN Baptist Preacher of late 1700's. early 1800's. So my Anscestors were in the area stated here. I also have abt 8 books of Bishop Spangenburgh's diary that he kept when he took the Moravians to the Catawba area when my 5th Gr gr pa, Jonathon was there and lived at the foot of BARRETT"S MT.

It is no question that the mother of this child (the child is almost 18 years now) is very distressed over this situation. She has my sympathy over what has happened and what is going on now. However, I am only hearing her side of the story and I can not pass judgement on the laws or courts that allowed this situation to become what it is today. It is my firm belief that these type of topics should not be part of this forum.
