This line is of great interest to me as I'm trying to connect my ancestor, John Foster of Greenville Co SC, to this family.I don't have the original record of James' will but I can give you the relationships of the people named.Besides his son, George Wells Foster, and his wife, Susannah, he names Josiah Foster, William Foster, Elizabeth Dabbs and Hannah Nance.These are his siblings.The oldest daughter (who married John Hayney and had a daughter, Elizabeth,) died before 1753, and his brother, George, died in 1762.There was also a brother, John, who sold the land given to him by his father in 1767 and moved away.He is probably the John Foster who died in Greenville SC in 1788.I'd be very happy to discuss this family in more detail with you and would appreciate learning what information you have on them.
