John Gordon/Whitehaven, ENG-abt. 1720
I'm trying to locate information on John Gordon, Sr. of Whitehaven, Old England. His son, David Gordon, settled in York Co., SC. David (Dec. 11,1746-Dec. 5, 1810) and was married to Catharine Lawson (Jul 13, 1745-Dec 27, 1785). John, Sr. was married to Isbel ?, who died May 15, 1794. It is quite confusing as there is data from the Joe Hart papers in the York Historical Center indicating that David was from Ireland. Family stories and information published in a book on York Co. state that there were "5 Gordon brothers who came to York Co., SC ,by way of Charleston, SC, from Castle Scotland".Does anyone know anything about John, Sr., David, the 5 Gordon brothers, and where they came from? Any help would be appreciated.
