Sophia ____ Shinholster Hiles, widow of Adam Hiles

In Edgefield Co., SC wills there is a transcription of a will, written and recorded in 1788, for Sophia Hiles. In the will she names her husband Adam Hiles who was apparently deceased (diseased), son William Shinholster and his two sons, John and George to whom she leaves a bequest, and Mary Meyer Hevler to whom she leaves her "sewing apparel, also one hundred bushels of corn...."

I assume Sophia was married to a Shinholster before marrying Hiles. Does anyone know Sophia's maiden name? Does anyone know the name of this Shinholster, the father of WIlliam? Does anyone know who Mary Meyer Hevler was?

Though I am curious about all the settlers in the New Windsor Twp of SC, my main interest is in the Meyer families.
