Good Morning Bruce:

Your Posting - "Barking Up The Wrong Tree For George McKINSEY 1752-1840" brings up very serious questions.

ITEM:

Those who served with the British Forces during The American Revolution - were forced to give up their "Estates" and their "Citizenship".

This is evidenced by the fate of William ELMORE {and other ELMORE Family Members} who did indeed serve with the British and were forced into exile into Florida.

"Proven" In The Following World-Wide Internet Site.

QUESTION: Can you "Prove Beyond A Reasonable Doubt" - George McKINSEY m Sarah THOMAS - {Parents of My Ancestress Abigail McKINSEY b 7th June 1788, Newberry Co., SC.,}:

Served with The British Forces during the American Revolution?


ITEM:

Your Research into the possibility George McKINSEY, Father of Abigail McKINSEY b 7th June 1788, Newberry Co., SC.,m Sarah MOORE raises very serious questions.
