Jinks. Sally Thompson his mother possible died in a fire. "Don"Jinks second
marriage was to Avery Evelene HARKNESS b 7-22-1869 d 2-1946, buried Locust Grove

seeking information on Colville ABERCROMBIE, b. Oct. 4, 1762. d. Aug. 26, 1838
in Henry Co. married Mary LINDLEY abt 1784. Apparently, he's buried in Laurens Co.,
SC, but his will is not on file there. It may have been filed in Henry Co. I have
his descendants, including line of son James, my 4th ggrandfather. Especially interested
in when he moved to Henry co, if any children came with him, etc.
