This posting is a continuation of a series about Ezekiel Calhoun which began with this previous posting, which focused on the Calhoun family’s years in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, after they arrived there from County Donegal, Ireland, in 1733, their subsequent move to Reed Creek in Augusta (later Wythe) County, Virginia, before October 1745, and their relocation to the Long Cane area of Granville (later Abbeville) County, South Carolina, in 1755.
Or, Subtitled: “We are at best but Strangers and pilgrames as all our fathers have been”
Now that I have completed a series of postings tracking family lines descending from John Green (1768-1837) of Abbeville and Pendleton District, South Carolina, and Bibb County, Alabama, a series that began with this posting, I’m going to begin a series tracking the Calhoun ancestry of John Green’s wife Jane Kerr, who was the daughter of Samuel Kerr and Mary Calhoun of the Long Cane settlement in what became Abbeville County, South Carolina, in 1785. The posting that follows will focus on Jane’s mother Mary Calhoun Kerr.
