This posting is the last installment in a series of postings discussing the children of Andrew Pickens and Rebecca Calhoun of Abbeville County and Pendleton District, South Carolina.

In the two previous postings (here and here), I shared information about Ezekiel Calhoun, who was born about 1720 in County Donegal, Ireland, came with his parents Patrick Colhoun and Catherine Montgomery to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, in 1733, and then moved with his siblings and their widowed mother before October 1745 to Augusta County, Virginia. As the linked postings state, about 1742 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Ezekiel married Jean (also called Jane) Ewing, who was, Margaret Ewing Fife thinks, the daughter of Patrick and Mary Ewing of County Donegal, Ireland, and Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.[1]
