I am researching my ancestors who lived in Chester County during the
Revolution, and am interested in one in particular. The following is from
DESCENDANTS OF JACOB COOPER, by Maydee Crawford. "Jacob Cooper, Jr. b. ca
1750, Frederick County, VA., m. Rebecca McKinney, b. 15 June 1760, Frederick
County, VA., d. 2 Nov 1838, Ohio County, KY., bur. Lester Coomes Farm. Jacob
died 7 June 1805, Chester District, South Carolina, bur. Richardson's Church
Cemetary. Citation of his death was read June 16, 1805 by the Rev. John B.
Davies. He resided in the northeast part of the county. Estate was
administered by the wife: there wasn't any will. After the death of Jacob,
Rebecca moved to KY. Jacob served in the Revolutionary War. Some of these
records are on file with the Historical Commission of South Carolina,
Columbia, SC. He served as a Captain in the Militia of South Carolina,
supplying provisions to the troops thereof during the years 1780-1781. He lost
a horse and a mare under the command of MAJ O'Dair. Verified by National
#163450 add 182. According to the 1790 South Carolina Census, Capt. Jacob
Cooper had in his household himself, his wife, 3 white males under the age of
16, 5 free white females, 2 other free persons and 4 slaves. John Cooper, son
of Jacob and Rebecca, filed for partition of his father's land (filed in 1812;
heard 1813; filed in Court of Common Pleas of Chester County, SC) Roll #1213.
Jacob's date of death listed as 4/7/1806. Partition was for 440 acres of land
on the Catawba River. Question of whether this was the same land given Jacob
Cooper by his father Jacob in his will (date of death 2/9/1796) probated in
Cravens County, SC. Ref: Racheal Ellen Cooper DAR application Cooper Family;
Hugh Cooper (1720 - 1793) of Fishing Creek, SC and His Decendants, by Lesbia
Word Roberts, 1976. pp. S171 - S172., Clarabell Phillips, Hancock County
Archives, Hawesville, KY." In addition, from Cooper Collection, Vol. 1 #4.
"Jacob (Cooper) - was a Capt. under Col. John Mills, also served as a private
under Capt. George Healy, Maj. Adair and Gen. Thomas Sumter. He was mentioned
in the pension application of Edward McFadden, Nr. S2790."
I am a retired Special Forces Major living in Fayetteville, NC. My
brother, a retired school teacher from Spokane, WA, is coming to visit in
April. We intend to come to SC to do some research, and to see the graves of
the Coopers in Richardson's Church Cemetary. As of today, I have been unable
to locate Richardson's Church Cemetary. Could you possibly assist me in
getting directions, or put me in touch with someone who may know where it is?
Also, could you suggest some places for us to conduct some brief research
while we are in SC? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I am looking for info on a (James?) Hamilton and his wife, Sarah
Black-Hamilton. This Hamilton may have died abt 1802. The wife, Sarah
remarried to a John McCants who died 1813, she may have also remarried to a
Jeremiah McCants who later died by 1819 or so. Would John & Jeremiah have
been just one person after all with the name of Jeremiah John McCants. The
Hamiltons may have been the parents of 3-4 boys, one being named James Black
Hamilton. By the 1820 census' and every census year after that Sarah with
some of her Hamilton & McCants children are found living in Jones, Talbot &
Taylor Counties, GA. Sarah is still alive in the 1850 census as 83 yrs and
having come from Ireland. Do you recognize any of these names or do you
connect to these people? Would love to hear from you.

My son has to do an 11th. grade honors English project which counts for
more than 1/2 of his total grade. Of course I have to help him! My
husband's family was very upset about the proj. and would not help at all.
I thought that this was strange until I started on my own. I soon
discovered that his grandfather was adopted. Big upset!! The family that
adopted him even mentioned this in their obits. I know these facts:
1. His name was James Thomas Morris; b.7-22-1885; d:2-23-1964
His mother died during childbirth and her sister hsd just had a baby the
month before. Her sis. and her husband took Tom to raise. Their names were
Glover and Carrie Walker Morris. I can not find out anything about Carrie
except that she had at least 2 other sisters. Belle walker_______ lived
on a farm in Winsboro. She and her husband are burried there. The other
sister lived on a farm across or next to theirs. Her name was Etha. It
is believed that she never married. From these facts, I believe that the
Walkers were from Fairfield County. I would like to ask your help.
Please. I had thought about looking up obits. at the library for that
time period or using the census and going back to poss. 1870 to find a
Walker that listed these girls. I do not know if Tom's mother was married
or not. Belle's last name may be Mitchell or Henry. She was the last one
of the sisters to die if my info. is correct. If you can't help me, could
you please tell me what services the library might offer. I would
appreciate anything. Myrtle Beach is a long way to come for a library
visit.

Margaret DOMINY married Andrew
DOMINY Sr. who was a Revolutionary War
Soldier, in Fairfield County, SC sometime between 1768 and 1783. (In
her pension application it states she was living in Fairfield District
at the time of marriage). Later they were reported in Richland Count
becaue in Andrew's will, it lists some of his children, beginning with
Sarah who was born in 1784 in Richland Co.,SC. However, in the process
of applying for a pension, testimony was given that Margaret "had
children during the war", meaning to me that she had given birth to
children before the revolution and raised them during the war or else
gave birth to children during the war. I need to find out if John
and/or Frederick DORMINY who show up in Washington County,GA in 1795
were born to Andrew and Margaret and were the children they had during
the war. ANY help would greatly be appreciated, or a hint where to
look.

ARNOLD--Seeking info on Nancy Arnold, born ca. 1846 somewhere in SC. She
is listed on the 1880 SC Census in town of Winnsboro, Fairfield Cty. SC
as "Head of Household" and as "Widowed or Divorced."
Children listed on census were William 9 yrs., John 7 yrs., LeRoy 2 yrs.,
and Sarah 1 yr. John was my Gfather. When John was 10 or 11 yrs. of
age, Nancy fostered the three boys at a nearby farm. My gfather never
spoke of his mother, father or the family circumstances that necessitated
the fostering. No trace of Nancy or Sarah. Gfather mentioned once that
he had two uncles, John and Jim (possibly James) who migrated to Alabama.
Two other names mentioned were Mary Jane and Ida. Don't know relation.
Any clues, anyone? Please help solve this long-time family mystery.

Gibson,McFadden,McGarity,McWaters of Chester County. Many also lived in

John McWaters of Fairfield County. William, 1802, had a son named
William, born 1835. His daughter (William 1835), Caty, married a Gibson.
Another McWaters girl, Sallie, married a McFadden. I believe Sallie's
father, John Baptist McWaters, may have been a brother to William 1835

relationship exists beween the children of Sallie and Caty McWaters.
