Sterling Surname in SC and GA circa 1780
For all you Sterlings out there, I have a few documents signed by a Robert Sterling.He administered my ggggrand father's will inCharleston, SC in the year of 1785.From the information I have it appears that Robert Sterling may have han a close association with my ggggrand father, James Elder who served as a Captain in Roebucks regiment during the fall of Charleston. After the war James was granted a tract of land in Liberty County, Georgia.Robert was married to Sara and both their names were on the documents that administered James Elder's will.I am trying to make my Elders connection from James back to wherever.If anyone out there can help or I can help you give me a tug on the email rope.
