Patsy, Could you do a look up on these three names? The first one is Adam Cusack from South Carolina. The other two are Thomas Kennedy and William Kennedy of Darlington District, South Carolina.

I tried to ask you on your page but couldn't find out how to do it. Sorry.

My sister Judy and I have several potential Patriots. As time allows we will ask you help on some of those. What really baffeled me was that our Mother's first cousin used the information I had gathered and joined DAR 30 years ago. Now that Judy wants to do a supplement they have denied her. She has been working very hard on this and any help you can give will be appreciated by both of us.

Thank you both. I will try the searches and Cheryl, you are a Godsend. Hope you have a safe and successful trip.

Have you tried the genealogy search on this page? Another search you might be able to make is on Google Books.

Judith,

I am making a copy of this info. I am going to Baton Rouge for a few days. My cousin has done a lot of research in that area. Maybe she can help us find out where to look. I would bet there are records somewhere there that may help.

Keep your fingers crossed.

Cheryl( your sisters buddy)

Thomas Price b. ca 1769, obtained state land grant for 213 acres in Barnwell, (present Aiken) Co., SC. Many of my relatives have joined DAR under Thomas using a military record AA 6122, showing 477 days of service under Capt. Moses Wood 1780 and 1781, in 96 District Regiment. This regiment fought within miles of the above land grant. Moses Wood enlisted in Greenville, SC. I do not know the parents of Thomas and I do not know where he enlisted. I do have a Wood line. The ggd of Thomas m. Richard Wood 19 Jul 1865 Angelina Co., TX, s/o James P. Wood, b. cira 1815, GA. On the 1850 Angelina Co., TX, census, Thomas is in the household with a possible son, Elijah Price. Any help would be greatly appreciated because I have hit many road blocks in attempts to find tax, will, probate, Church, etc. records from SC.
