Charles Brandon - Mecklenburg County, NC/York County, SC
Posted by: Patterson (ID *****0554) Date: September 27, 2009 at 06:54:46

HELP NEEDED !!

Citing Mr. Brent Holcomb's book on land grants made in North Carolina and later transferred into South Carolina, page 127.
"BRANDON, CHARLES File No.05 Entry no. 391"
"Warrant: 200 A on Burlison's fork of Turkey Creek joining and between the Line of George Hogue senior & George Hogue Junior 3 May 1769 Wm Tryon Ben Heron Audr. Returned April Court 1770"
"Two idnetical plats: Surveyed for Charles Branden 200 A on Burlison's fork of Turkey Creek joining & between lines of George Hogg & William Ross's lands.... George Hogg Junrs line....Peter Johnston Sur January 20th 1770
George Hogg & Charles Branden, C B" (chain bearers)

George Hoge died in Pendleton County, South Carolina, between November 1798 and April 1801 and named his daughter Georreeta Brandon as well as his son-in-law, John Ross. Charles and George Brandon lived in Pendleton County, South Carolina according to both deeds and census records. In 1790, Charles reported one male over 16, one male under 16, and 9 females. He was also "captured" in the 1778-1779 "Jury List of South Carolina", page 102. He ALMOST appears to agree with the Charles Brandon who died in Bedford County, Tennessee, but prior Brandon family history work makes that impossible as well as the affidavit given by Margaret Brandon in the lawsuit brought primarily Matthew Mullins.

It seems less research work has been done on these specific lines, which is understandable if none of the male offspring had other male Brandons. Other collateral lines firmly established in research around these families are McCullough, Erwin, McNight, Young, Cunningham, Martin, Chambers, and Armstrong. There are many other but in later generations.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. And.... I sure hope I haven't missed earlier information that directly adddresses this Charles Brandon.
