Betty,
The only thing I have found on a Charles Broadwater was on the 1790 census of Edgefield and the 1850 Edgefield Census, plus I did find this in Louisiana

The Natchitoches Times article.
November 26, 1999 issue

WHAT'S YOUR LINE?
A column written by members of the Natchitoches Genealogical and Historical
Association
By Carol Wells

About 1811, in Edgefield, S. C., Jehu Caston and Andrew Caston sold land to
John C. Jordan. Jordan's name was also spelled Jourdan in this deed. One
of the witnesses was Eppey Tillery. In a deed written a year earlier this
person was called Eppy Tilery when he or she, Lucreasy Broadwater and
Charles Broadwater sold land to William Tillery, which he soon sold to
David Tillman. At this point, the searcher cannot know if Eppy or Eppey
was a man or a woman. The deeds also show a common genealogical problem:
different spellings of a name.

I don't know if the Broadwater in the Natchitoches Times Article is the same one that was on the 1790 census or what. I would think it might be since there were only 2 Broadwaters listed on the 1790 census(Charles & Scarborough)
The only other Charles Broadwater that I know of was on the 1850 census. I believe this was Charles M. Broadwater and no one as far as I know has who his father was. I believe he was 23 on the 1850 census.
That is about all I have found on a Charles.
