Ezekiel Pickens and Wife Elizabeth Bonneau: New Material Added to Previous Posting

On my recent research trip to the Special Collections and Archives of Clemson University’s Library, I found interesting new information about the burial place of Ezekiel Pickens, son of Andrew Pickens and Rebecca Calhoun, and of Ezekiel’s wife Elizabeh Bonneau, who was a sister of Floride Bonneau, who married Rebecca’s brother John Ewing Colhoun. In a posting I previously made about Ezekiel Pickens and wift Elizabeth Bonneau, I stated that Ezekiel’s burial place is unknown.

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.
