Hi
I answered your post on the AI board and thought perhaps this family might be related to the George Rollinson/Rawlinson family that married daughter of Gibson/Gibby Gibson --- I did a little more checking and apparently the Richland Co., SC family came from Kent Co., MD.

''Benjamin Rawlinson was born October 12, 1727 in Kent County, Marlyand as recorded in the Register of St. Paul's Parish, Kent County, Maryland 1650-1818. He is the father of the seven children shown in the statement documented by James Rawlinson. The six brothers and one sister are documented by James Rawlinson of Richland County, South Carolina dated in 1850. Military records of the five brothers during the American Revolution on file in the South Carolina State Archives in Columbia, South Carolina. All of the brothers except James were soldiers fo the American Revolution. Benjamin Rawlinson was living when his daughter Patience Rawlinson married Gideon Griffon at the home of her father about 1790-91 according to James's statement.''
