Reference note

Virginia, I have studied your White genealogy and mostly what I’m looking for is a connection to Georgia.

The estate papers I have on Simpson’s out of Union County, SC are:

William T. Simpson, Esq. estate settled 1814, Legatees:

Mary Davidson, late wife of Thomas Davidson, her issue:Margaret S. Harris wife of Pleasant Harris and Mary Patton, wife of George Patton.Paid Christopher Golightly as guardian of Miss Davidson. Isabella Means wife of James Means, Sr. Nancy Mayes, wife of Joseph Mayes (Mays)

No will in this estate.No White’s at the estate sale.There is mention of tax paid on land in Georgia. A note I have in my files and I didn’t write down where I copied it from (but it was a book and not the internet).March 1815, Court of Equity at Union Court House for Pinckney Equity District, Mary L. Davison Petition ordered Josh (Joseph?) Mays be apptd guardian to care and manage property from death of Uncle, William T. Simpson, Esq.From the estate papers it appears that Mr. Simpson was an attorney and did business in Spartanburg County as well.

Estate of Edmond/Edward Simpson, Sr. 1835 Will names:my four youngest children:Samuel, William, Edmond Simpson, Jr., (who died 1836) and Polly Campbell (James).Appraisers:Joel Dean, Jesse Dodd, Jason Norman.My child Bird Simpson’s two eldest sons.Samuel Simpson, Executor.He (Edmond/Edward) to be buried in family graveyard.

Samuel Simpson deceased 1797.This is Simpson who intermarried with Nancy Bobo.A Robert White was an appraiser for this estate.1799 accounts against estate:Samuel Farror fee against Docr White.Notes due Thomas White.Rec’d of John Murrell for rent 1799.Due from Estate of Samuel Simpson and paid off:Drury Murrell, John Jackson, Ralph Jackson, and Joseph Jackson.Estate closed in 1815.He was a blacksmith.His children:Delilah Simpson Bobo Willis, Susanna Simpson, Sophia Simpson Richardson Powers, Barrum Bobo, guardian to John and Samuel Simpson.Paid Elizabeth Ray for clothing legatees, Paid to Hosea Holcomb for schooling John Simpson.Administration Bonds for Wm Alexander, George Gordon and John Bogan.

Chester County wills 1802 Mary McClure—I give and bequeath to my grand daughter Mary White daughter to my son James McClure one Negro girl named Fanny.

Will of William Simpson Camden District 1784 Wife:Mary Children: James Simpson, his son William, and James’ daughters Mary Simpson, Jane Simpson, Elizabeth Simpson William Simpson, his daughter Sarah Simpson Grand Daughter Martha Adams, daughter of Thomas Adams Grand son John Simpson To my grandson William Simpson son of James Simpson, I give and bequeath a track of land containing two hundred acres situate on Rocky Creek on the East side of the Cuttaba River.The Camden District covered a large area in 1784.

Are you aware that the SC Dept of Archives and History has put on line images of deeds and wills for the early years?A great source.

For me, I’m wondering how my William Simpson’s daughter, Mary J.(this may be Jane) Mariah Simpson, married William Martin Graham from Forsyth County, Georgia.William’s father is David and his mother, Sarah (LNU).William M. and Mary married February 23, 1871.David Graham and a Martin Graham are found in 1840 and 1850 Hall County, GA censuses.David Graham is in Floyd County in 1860 and Forsyth County in 1870.Martin Graham had a son named James David Graham who married Georgia Chandler (second wife) and she may have been married previously. His first wife was Virginia Nuckolls of Whitfield County, Georgia.James D. Graham and Georgia are both buried in Whitfield County and they were in this county from 1901 until their deaths.My Grgrgrandfather and his son, Richard A. Simpson were in Whitfield County in 1900.So, it makes you think that there were Simpson relatives in Georgia or Graham relatives in South Carolina.

At any rate, I’ll keep looking.It just may be that we are connected and just haven’t found it yet.Your Mary Simpson could be my William Simpson’s aunt.I will keep your information and follow up if I ever find anything and I hope you will do the same.
