Clan MacThomas of Glen Shee Scotland

Thank you very much for your assistance in finding more roots for me! There is something I found this morning that could help.Jacob McComb and Katherine Shaw had a child-William- and I believe, amoungst all the papers I have collected, that Jacob Shaw McComb had a brother named William who came with him to America. Jacob Shaw came through Tennessee, and settled in Knox Co., which is where my great-great grandfather was bor. His name was Rev. Thomas Benton McComb. William McComb died in Knox Tennessee. So I do believe that Jacob and Katherine McComb had two sons- William and Jacob Shaw McComb.
When they entered the States, they came into Charelston, SC. I would assume that they already had family there- otherwise, why South Carolina, when they could have come into PA where so many others entered? All assumptions on my part....
Thanks again, and you may send me some info on the Clan McThomas..
