MYERS AND NEIGHBORS OF JEFFRIES CREEK, SCMYERS AND NEIGHBORS OF JEFFRIES CREEK, SC (book)

Hardcover Print: $40.00

This book is the result of over 200 years of cumulative research by a number of cousins who joined together to write it. Much of the book is from the present Darlington and Marion County, SC area where Francis Marion was so active but also includes the movement of these families into new states as they were incorporated. Jeffries Creek begins west of Darlington, SC and enters the Pee Dee River below Florence, SC where much of the activity took place. A significant amount of one chapter discusses the Revolutionary War and the results of the activity of the British when trying to control people who felt free of England.

This is over a 200 year cumulative study of the Myers families of 1700-1800 S.C. with frequent mention of their neighbors.

Although concentrated in the Jeffries Creek area of SC, it follows Myers/Miers descendents into Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi until the mid 1800s and 1900's. Hundreds of other families are mentioned with land locations. There is considerable information about the families of Burris, Cusack, Bass, Prothro, Nettles, James, McPherson, Simmons, Chandler, and Burch. Discussed are River Road, Middle Swamp, Alligator Swamp, Muldrow’s Mill, Gardner’s Mill, Alligator Road, Claussen, Sparrow Swamp, Lake Swamp, Black Creek, Lynches River, and The Great Pee Dee River. Pioneers of Elbert & Hart Counties of Georgia and Pike, Barbour & Dale Counties of Alabama are presented.
