Dear Laurens Co. researchers,

We have just found on an 1824 court doc. that the Anna married to William
Hanna(h/2 is really Hannah McMahon. She must have changed her name to Anna
at marriage because she signs "Anna" on everything after marriage. She
is the sister of Mary McMahon Carwile, Martha McMahon Hamilton, John, Nancy
and James who died intestate that is what the suit was all about. Write
me if you need details. So now we have to find the mother of William/2
the son of Wm./1 and ??. The earliest date we have for Wm./1 is that he
helped build the Duncan Creek Presby. Church in 1763/66. He is on the 1790
census with Wm./2 But that is about all we have on him. We don't know if
he emigrated to Charleston as poor Protestant Scots-Irish or came down
the Great Wagon Way from PA with his parents possibly from Chester Co.
PA. Or was he born on a stop of his parents in Lincoln, NC as some have
suggested. Any help would be appreciated. We also now have to find the
parents of the McMahon siblings. I will be happy to exchange information.
Thanks, Linda in Albuquerque
