Here’s more material I’ve added to a previous posting here, following my recent trip to Clemson University Library’s Special Collections and Archives. In the “John C. Calhoun Papers” of the archives, I found a little survey book kept by Patrick Calhoun, John C. Calhoun’s father, between 1784 and 1792. In that survey book, I found much valuable material, including the following about Reverend John Harris, whose son John Harris married Mary Pickens, daughter of Andrew Pickens and Rebecca Calhoun:
Here’s more new information I’ve now added to some previous postings following my recent research trip to the Special Collections and Archives of Clemson University’s Library: previously, I have made a number of postings about a Benjamin Green who appears in records of the Long Cane settlement in Granville County, South Carolina (later Abbeville County) by June 1768. As my previous postings focusing on this Benjamin stated, I suspect he may have been the father of John Green (1768-1837), who married Jane Kerr, daughter of Samuel Kerr and Mary Calhoun. I also stated in these same postings that I thought it was likely Benjamin Green was father of a younger Benjamin Green, who, as with John Green, worked for John Ewing Colhoun, uncle of Jane Kerr Green. John Green and wife Jane Kerr managed John E. Colhoun’s Keowee Heights plantation as it got underway, and the younger Benjamin Green tutored John E. Colhoun’s children and also assisted in reporting to John business affairs on both his lowcountry and upcountry plantations.

This posting is a continuation of the previous posting discussing the children of Alexander Noble and Catherine Calhoun of Abbeville County, South Carolina. The previous posting discussed Alexander and Catherine’s first four children John, Ezekiel, William, and Jane. This posting discusses the last three children Alexander, Patrick, and Joseph.

The first four children of Catherine Calhoun and Alexander Noble were as follows (a subsequent posting will provide information about the couple’s other children):

This post continues a discussion that began with this previous posting of the children of Andrew Pickens and Rebecca Calhoun of Abbeville County and Pendleton District, South Carolina. The posting I’ve just linked discusses Andrew and Rebecca’s first six children Mary, Ezekiel, Ann, a son who died in infancy, and two daughters named Jane.

In this posting and a subsequent one, I will share information about the children of Andrew Pickens (1739-1817) and Rebecca Calhoun (1745-1814) of Abbeville County and Pendleton District, South Carolina. This posting will discuss Andrew and Rebecca’s first six children Mary, Ezekiel, Ann, an unnamed son who died in infancy, and Jane, a name given to two daughters in a row after the first Jane died in infancy.
