Embry/Hembre & McCravy-Spartanburg Dist.SC
I need help with the wife of Archibald Everitt McCRAVY. Her name was MARIE Hembree or EMBRY. Marie was born ca 1749 in VA or NC. She died about 1792 in Spartanburg Dist. SC.
She and Archibald had eleven children (6 known)
James McCravy b. 1770
Thomas McCravy 1772
John McCravy 1776
Margaret McCravy b. 1783 Va married Josiah Woodruff 1799 in SC. She died in Winston Co. Miss.
Archibald McCravy Jr. 1785
Mary McCravy b. 1787 SC married abt 1809 SC. died after 1855 Lowndes Co. Alabama. married Simon Lyfus Lavender.
"may or may not be true that her father was a Frenchman and her mother was an Indian"
I hope someone will be able to help solve this mystery. After Marie died, Archibald married Jane Pettet Cathcart.
