Hi, seeking info on the below Grahams and Stewarts. 1) Thomas Stewart (b 1669 Ire) m Margaret Graham (b 1673 Ire) .......2) John Stewart (1700 Ire) m Catherine Jane Graham ............3) Thomas (b 1725 d 1806 Charleston SC) ............3) Jane (b 1743) ............3) Margaret (b 1744) ............3) John (b 1747)** ............3) James (b 1750) ............3) Mary (b 1752) ............3) Robert (b 1754 d 1820 Charleston SC)) ............3) Catherine (b 1742, d NJ) m James Potter Data via rootsweb.com, indicates all children were born in Ireland (1725-1754). So I'm wondering when these Stewarts and Grahams came to America, and if the Grahams were associated with the Stewarts in Georgetown and Old 96 SC. 1778 & 1780 Georgetown: -David Graham -George Graham -John Sen Graham 1779 Old 96 SC -Hugh Graham -James Graham -Adam Potter There are Stewarts in Georgetown as early as 1737: -Hugh Stewart m Magdelene Swinton -James Stewart -Robert Stewart Also I did note a Stewart & Potter (maybe business?) listed on 1790 Charleston SC census. Data from Ancestry.com I'm trying to locate my Stewarts in SC ie **John Stewart (b abt 1748); by 1789/90 they were in Chatham and Effingham Cos GA, later some went into AL and MS. Could there be a relation with these Grahams? Many thanks, Lynda
