Re the above two single daughters, Celia (spelled many different ways in records) but she had a LWT and she died single, leaving all to her other single sister Elizabeth Slaughter Pitts.

Hope this helps.I am researching Pitt/Pitts and of course am interested in Hannah Collier whose mother was Hannah Unknown Maiden Name.Her father was John, I believe.I know she had a brother Benjamin and one sister who lived in Laurens. In a LWT the names of her sisters are given, I believe, but I don't have my info in front of me right now. You are welcome to email me direct if you wish for I have info here at my home. Perhaps we can help each other.
Best regards,
