I have a Henry Costin/Costine who was in Colleton Co. SC just below Charleston by c 1790.
Do you think he could be related to your George Costin?
I think that he probably came from maybe New Hanover Co, NC or another area of NC to
Colleton Co. with the Lopers. Any clues would help!!

I am researching the family of my grandfather, Robert
Manley. If the information I have is correct, then William
MANLY/MANLEY is his father. There is a William MANLY/MANLEY shown to
be in New Hanover Co. in 1860. The information I have is below. If
anyone has or can get information on this person or family, please contact
me!! Thanks!!

My Willis family came to Southeast Virginia from England, in the Chesapeake
Bay area, the same area that the pilgrims first settled. There in the 1740
s, in Isle of Wight County and Nansemond County (now the city of Suffolk)
was the place that Joseph Willis father, Agerton Willis, three uncles and
one aunt called home. The family had come to America from Devonshire,
England. I believe, but I cannot prove it beyond the shadow of a doubt, the
English father of these five children was Benjamin Willis, Jr. (b

The movie "The Patriot" was filmed in Chester, York, Charleston, and
Georgtown counties in South Carolina. The biggest part was filmed on the Guy
Darby Farm on the Chester/York county line. Just as the movie portrays,
Joseph Willis and General Francis Marion also operated out of the South
Carolina swamps.

My Henry Costine/Coston was in Colleton Co. SC by 1790. About that time Dolly Loper and
Henry Coston applied for a Rev. War pension. Colleton Co. SC's records were burned during
the Civil war so records are scarce. Here is what I know of the line in Colleton Co: My
line is in "All Caps"

Hi,
Does anyone out there remember E. C. Moore, who had a store on Front Street?
I'm trying to figure out how he fits into the vast King Roger Moore family
tree - or if he is part of another forest somewhere?
Thanks!!!
I would like to share data with anyone who can assist me in adding to
my family database on the listed surnames: These date back to the
1755 time frame. The Woodcock, Creech and Ross families (part of
them at least) moved on to SC and then to Bulloch County, GA.
What I have to share is at the following web site:
http://www.cwoodcock.com it is listed under the name of William
Woodcock, Sr. by Edward Breland. Just click on old William's name
and you will find the listings for nearly 22,000 indiv
Hi!

My great great grandfather was Arthur D. Moore and he was born in New Hanover Co. around 1800.

I am at a standstill as I can't find anymore information on him or his father. If anyone has any information, I would love to he
