Lee, I only know of two for sure although it is highly likely. Olivers family and the bunch of Wallaces who came directly from Ireland. Two for sure. C.M.

Lee, I can say for sure I know of two John Wallaces from York. One was a son of Oliver Wallace Sr. who came from PA to Mecklenburg Co.- turned into Tryon in turn turned into Camden and then the York most people know of. Olivers son John though left around 1800 and joined his Father and others in Oglethorpe/Clarke Co.'s GA. So that is one less. I will look at the references to the John in Military and rewrite you. I do not know if he was yours but as you say your John died in 1816 it puts him into this frame. I can also look at my notes again and it may be that James L. also a son of Oliver Sr. I think also had a son so named. It seems that these people were coming and going all the time. We have seen from information, correspondances and notes that people were moving frequently so it looks hard but not impossible to research. C.M.

Hi... Several Wallace Cousins are looking for any information on the John WALLACE family from York Co, SC. Here is what we have thus far: - John's spouse was Catherine _________ . - John died in 1816 in York Co. - His children (identified in a will) were: - - John WALLACE - - Sarah/Sally WALLACE m. Cornelius FARRIS 8 Sep 1823, Lauderdale Co, AL - - Casy/Cassy WALLACE m. Samuel FARRIS 20 Feb 1826, Lauderdale Co, AL - -Catherine WALLACE (>1805 - ) m. William JONES 15 Jan 1828, Lauderdale Co, AL - -Samuel WALLACE (>1805 - ) - -William WALLACE (suspect). There is strong circumstantial evidence that he also had a son (possibly the oldest) named Thomas. However, it's possible that Thomas m-a-y have been John's younger brother. Regardless, Thomas and all of the family listed above moved to Lauderdale Co in northwest Alabama in the 1819-1820 time period. What makes this even more confusing is that in the 1810 Fed Census, there were 3 John Wallaces listed. Although we have identified which John is "ours" on the Census, the frequency of common male names makes it non-trivial (see below) in determining which John is "ours" on other documents. Further, I have been advised in the past that there were 3 distinct Wallace families living in York Co in the late 18th-early 19th century. If you can shed any light or point us toward some further clues about "our" John, all of us "cousins" would REALLY appreciate it. Regards, Lee Mathis Arlington, VA

Our Oliver Wallace Jr.was a son of Oliver Wallace Sr., and Anna McNabb. They came from Lancaster Co. PA to SC. Oliver Jr. was in the Revolutionary War and died in 1789. He had three daughters and one son. Hannah, Sarah, Jean and Oliver Berry Wallace. We theorize that the sons middle name was his mothers maiden name. This name does not show any place else. The daughters lived for a time with their Grandparents in GA. We have a trace only on Sarah and Oliver B. Wallace. I understand that Oliver had several brothers who also lived in York Co. One procured the lands for him before he left Charleston, SC during the War, for York to retire. He never got to enjoy the pension or otherwise.... If you want other info let me know. I have some information that may add to your line. Thanks, C.M.

I have no additional information.Just wanted to share this with you. Excerpts from Marion SC Newspaper...Winnette SCMAR, Vol. XIII, Spring 1985, No. 2, p.76 Until the Treaty of Augusta was signed in November of 1763, there had been no formal regulations for the protection of Catawba Tribal rights. The Treaty established an area of 15 miles square located in the present South Carolina counties of York, Chester and Lancaster. A small section of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina was also included. Following a survey by Samuel Wyly 1763-1764, all white settlers were ordered off the land. Through this ruling, we are able to assume that enough white people lived on Indian Land to create a need for action. Despite the efforts of the Colonial Government, many settlers either remained on the land or returned quite soon. SCMAR, Vol. XIII, Spring 1985, No. 2, p.76 By 1840, the area was thickly settled with white families and property ownership was a tangled maze of multiple leases. The Catawba Nation had few Tribal members residing on Indian Land. Through the Treaty of Nation's Ford, the rights to the land were assumed by the State of South Carolina. To-day, possession of this land, which now includes the population centers of Rock Hill and Fort Mill, is being contested through legal action brought by interests of the Catawba Nation. SCMAR, Vol. XIII, Fall 1985, No. 4, p.213 Long before the white man discovered the beauty and the riches of upper South Carolina, the Cherokees had lived there, claiming its streams and forests as their own, and making their home in its confines. Then adventuous souls found the land a pleasant place to live, and the Indians were at first friendly. Traders came to follow the adventurers, and then permanent settlers came to make this their home. And there were changes. The first few settlers were followed by their friends and relatives, and communites began to develop even before the Revolution. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Again, I have no other information. However, since the Vol and date is mentioned you might get someone to search for complete info. I have no way to verify this. Winnette SCMAR, Vol. XV, Spring 1987, No. 2, p.75 James Stanhope Corry, b. ca. 1814. On Sept. 15, 1848, he petitioned the York Dist. Ordinary for guardianship of his son Wm B.D.K. Curry, minor, shewing that this minor was entitled to a share of the estate of his uncle Sam'1 D. Barron, decd.[139] The Union District 1850 Census shews James Corry living adjacent to his mother Nancy Corry. He was 36 years of age, a planter, with wife Cynthia, aged 24 and two sons. His Will was dated Aug. 4, 1854, stipulating: "My negroes to operate in Mississippi under care of Col. Rogers and Nathaniel Smith for one or two years . then to be hired out until my eldest son Wm B. D. comes of age. Then Wm B. D. will receive one fourth, James Andrew, and Abram Smith one fourth as they come of age. My wife to receive the other fourth. My children shall receive a good English education. Wm B. Decalb is to have what is coming from the Baron (sic: Barron) estate, James Andrew what is coming from the Jeffries estate. Should Mrs. Smith be unfavorable to Wm B. D. in the disposition of her estate, then he is to have what may come fron Mrs. Nancy Corry's estate. My wife Synthia, Nicholas Corry, M. M. Montgomery, John W. Goudelock, and A. White my executors, and Nathaniel Smith and B. F. Rogers my agents in Mississippi." There is no date of probate on the Will, as the Ordinary refused to receive it. Thereupon John Smith of York District prayed for Letters of Administration.[140] --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

I keep hoping to find Parkers and Jackson's. No such luck....Winnette SCMAR, Vol. VIII, Fall 1980, No. 4, p.214 Married on Thursday the 22d ult., by Rev. A. White, Mr. William D. Hagins of York, to Miss Lizzie R. Hough, formerly of Lebanon, New Hampshire. (Ibid.) SCMAR, Vol. VIII, Fall 1980, No. 4, p.217 Married on Tuesday the 25th ult., at the residence of W. C. Montgomery, near Fort Mill, York District, S. C., by J. F. White, Esq., Mr. John B. Watson of Lancaster District, to Miss Sarah Blythe. (April 16, 1856) SCMAR, Vol. XI, Spring 1983, No. 2, p.81 Married, on the 28th ultimo, by James Jeffersy Esq., Mr. Andrew Jackson Mitchem, and Miss Elizabeth White, all of York District. (August 17, 1859) SCMAR, Vol. X, Fall 1982, No. 4, p.210 This is to certify that I have in my possession Documents wherein it appears that Nancy Harrison is the daughter of Moses Brown and Ann Fairchild that the said Moses Brown was born of Mary McIntosh an Indian by a white man named William Brown and that Ann Fairchild was an Indian woman. SCMAR, Vol. IX, Spring 1981, No. 2, p.62 Another point which has been argued is that of miscegenation, or inter-racial marriage. While this was illegal in North Carolina from 1741 (the marriage bond law), this was not the case in South Carolina. Marriage between white persons and Indians or Negroes was legal and did occur. Also marriage between slaves and free persons was legal. Some marriages of these kinds are on record. Interracial marriage was forbidden by the South Carolina constitution of 1895, but not before. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
