Locating the -Black- Cunninghsm's of lancaster, SC
Greetings to all Cunningham's!
I am searching for my mother's relatives (some of whom may be of Irish or Scottish descent).My grandmother (born Mary Payton-1880) lived in Lancaster, SC.She married a Ruben (or Rube) Cunningham.They had five children that I know of: My mother, Nora, Sammie, Missie, Creola Patricia, and Richard.My grandfather Ruben died of influenza in the early 1900's.My grandmother and her family later moved to Charlotte, NC, and lived in an area called Second Ward.I believe my mother said that they lived on McDowell street.Mcdowell may very well be a County. Some of them worked at the Piggly Wiggly, Co. This was either in the 1920's or early 1930's.My grandmother and all of her children could read and write.Grandmother Cunningham also worked as a Mid-wife.If you have any knowledge of this family--please contact me.Much success to all in your search to find loved ones.
