Comment by Sheri on July 25, 2010 at 10:31am: I am researching the Brock family that is mostly in Pendleton County. They moved down from Virginia, North Carolina to South Carolina. My ancestor is Henry Brock born about 1770. His children were born in SC but most of them died in Tennessee. Henry was in Greenville, SC in 1820.
Anyone researching this family?
Thanks.

Comment by Patrice Scott on June 28, 2010 at 6:04am: Seeking information for Richard Scott born 1858 Richland County, SC. Richard 1858 was married to Eliza Seymore of Gadsden SC. They had 5 children, one being (Rev) Charlie Scott 1887-1965 my grandfather. I have found a reference that Richard was educated in 1870 in the Red Hill School in Gadsden SC. Any information as to Richard (1858) date and place of death, his parents, if free or slave (owned by whom), the Red Hill School is greatly appreciated.
