WILL OF JOSEPH HARRIS (Isacc & Sarah Lenoir)Kershaw,SC 1801
Bushy Hartman 5/18/02
Several places online I have found this estate record for Joseph Harris, Kershaw co. SC, 1801.He left bequests to his brothers, Barton and James, but also to Sarah LENOIR, and had Isaac Lenoir administer the estate. Kershaw was formed from the Camden dist. SC.
I have searched for a Sarah who fits and an Isaac who fits.I would appreciate information from anyone who has found more .I believe that this was Isaac Lenoir Sr of Sumter Co, SC(formed from Camden Dist.)and his daughter Sarah.
Sarah was called Sarah Thompson by 1808 when Isaac died, but earlier Isaac gave a Deed of gift (slave) to Sarah Lenoir's son Middleton, and it was in Kershaw Co.The only way this fits is that Sarah had married a Lenoir Cousin, probably Thomas Lenoir's son James, and had a son named Middleton who seems to be James Middleton Lenoir if you look at the records that have been posted in the past.For some reason, Joseph Harris included a Sarah Lenoir in his estate.So far I haven't found a Harris marriage with the older Lenoirs.I think my Sarah was already a widow by 1801.
So, does anyone have proof of the identity of this Sarah Lenoir?
