Jerry,
The only thing definitive that I have on your Jesse Ford is a deed dated 26 Oct. 1805.From Jesse Ford to Phillip Miller both of Greenville, SC. For $250. he sold 200 acres on the S. side of Reedy Fork of Reedy River.First granted to Steven Ford, Drury Smith.Adj. lands of Elhana Burnes and Thomas Rice.Wit: John McElory, Jr., Daniel Ford.On 28 Oct. 1805 Phebey Ford wife of Jesse Ford appeared before Hudson Berry, J. Q. and renounced her dower on the land. SignedPheby (X) Ford.Deed recorded 17 Nov. 1824. (Book O, Pg. 58)
I did not get this directly from the deed book but from a page of printed material that I got many years ago. No source listed.
