My ATTAWAY family was in SC in early to mid 1800s. I am specifically looking for marriage of William and Nicey DRAPER before 1830. My brick wall is proof that William's parents were Joseph and Edith NATIONS ATTAWAY. William is in 1830 Spartanberg census, moved to TN abt 1834, died before 1840. Some of the remaining family moved to GA. I have a DNA site on Ancestry for Attaway males if you are one.
Family lore has that Joseph Attaway fought at Cowpens and was shot in the foot but I've not found him listed on any history of that battle. He would have been in his teens. Also, it seems that there were so many volunteers that no comprehensive list exists. Any thoughts on finding this info.
My husband's family is from South Carolina. I have done a little bit of research on it but I need to do more. Surnames include Martin, Brant, Ulmer, Fisk, Breland, and Cope. The counties are mainly Colleton, Beaufort, and Barnwell.
