Before the resurvey of the NC/SC line in the 1770's, this area was considered to be in Anson, Mecklenburg, or Tryon Counties, NC. The following land grants were found in Mecklenburg County, NC records, but were later considered to be in York and Chester Counties, SC: Hugh McClelland - 300 acres on both sides stony fork of Fishing Creek...6 April 1765. Robert McClelland - 200 acres on Fishing Creek adjacent to Thomas McMurray & the Indians Line...24 October 1765. Thomas McClelon - 200 acres on Stony fork of Fishing Creek...2 November 1764. I am interested in information about any of these McClellan families from the Fishing Creek area of SC.
