I have been trying to piece together the Dorseys of the South for years.Today while reviewing the posts about various branches, I found your post about the daughter of John Dorsey of Maury County, TN.I think this is she and her family in the 1880 Travis County, TX census (page 57A.)Encouragingly, she gives both parents' birthplaces as SC supporting your hypothesis that John was a son of Cornelius of Chester Co.
From the looks of the children's birthplaces, the Livesays moved around a lot!

Sorry if the formatting isn't beautiful.I've spent a while trying to make it line up.Hopefully all interested will figure it out.If not, please let me know and I will send it privately.
