JOHNSON/JOHNSTON of Newberry Co., SC.
I have just emailed for two deeds (to the Newberry Courthouse - Clerk of Court):
1.18 Feb 1808 - DB 1, p. 072
James BURTON to John STERLING
2.28 Dec 1805 -DB H, p. 157
James BURTON TO John JOHNSON/JOHNSTON
According to a website with Y-DNA records on JOHNSON/JOHNSTON, there are several listed from SC & many listed with the same DNA, sometimes with different surnames.
My direct interest is James BURTON, but have not identified my James' wife, Rebecca.She was prob. born 1771-1774.I'm looking at every surname in that area as it's highly likely this couple lived in the area and married there abt 1796.So, if you come across this Rebecca in a family tree, please ....
