On later census material of the children- that I was able to locate - of James S. and Margaret/Margret/Margant --- some say James was born in Canada and some say Vermont. All say South Carolina for their mother - which helped identify them.

Any and all help needed!! Any ideas from which line

Any source material that would help clarify this family welcomed!!

Thanks for your time and energies
