George Galphin, Indian Trading Patriot of GA and SC

Updated November 12, 2002

About Our Family Research


I am a known historian of the Aiken, S.C. area and am now completing a biography and complete genealogy of George Galphin.
I have found a great deal of material about his descendants from his mulatto slave, Rose, whose Daughter Barbara married his accountant, Irishman William Holmes. Her 2 daughters lived in the area of Beech Island, S.C. near Silver Bluff where Galphin's main trading post was located. Both married white men of the area. His three half/breed Creek children by Tyger Clan Princess Metawney have been partially revealed but I am having a great deal of trouble finding details of the Creek families of both George II and John. I have the details of Creek daughter Judith who married Galphin's chief assistant trader, William Dunbar and lived and died at their Steel Creek Home. I have plenty of data about the children of Galphin's white son, Thomas, as well as data about white daughter Martha who married Gov. John Milledge of Georgia but died without living offspring. I have no data at all about his two mulatto daughters by his slave Sappho or his half/breed daughter Rose by his Creek slave Nitechuckey.
