  • Map 1827 lands (1047 KB)
    Shiloh was Peter's land and Faith was Jesses land. While I stood in the center of that Stokes Carter Cemetery shown on the map, I had no idea about the churches or I would have looked for them or some sign that our ancestors were there. Peter Bozeman, his wife Sarah, their son William Henry, all could be buried at one of those places, which could now be covered in woods.

        Bozeman in SC Militia, father of Peter, John, James and probably Ralph and Paul. Mordecai could have been the son of Mary White and Samuel Bozeman of Bladen County North Carolina and born 1735, while it was still Cherokee Indian Territory. The researchers of his son John claim that John was half Cherokee so the other sons would also be half blood. This makes sense since nothing is known about his wife and his marriage is not recorded anywhere thus far - some speculate that his wife was called Elizabeth

      his birth date is wrong, should be 1886 but it shows his wife as Lorena Bozeman. Charles was the son of Elizabeth Broadway and Josiah Marion McClain's who's families migrated from South Carolina into Georgia, then Alabama. Josiah descends from Elizabeth Moon and Charles McClain of 1750s Virginia. Elizabeth Moon had named a son Josiah and his son James had married an indian woman called Anna - Anna had a son named Josiah. I have seen three different dates of birth for grandpa Charlie but they had very little education, some could not read nor write at all, so the numbers are often mixed up.

    • DAR Jesse Bozeman (10 KB)
      Unknown connection but our Peter named a son Jesse so this could be a brother to our Peter in Darlington - there was a Jesse living two doors away from Peter in 1800 Darlington census. Peter's son was named Jesse M Bozeman and I can only suppose that M was for Mordecai and then can suppose it is possible that was also Peter's father's name.......now go back to the Jesse who served in the American Revolution and wonder if his middle initial was also M - could he have really been Peter's father living so close to him in 1800.............we may never know.
