Adrian Paul 4/18/02
Adrian, recently I received a page from a book which had a copy of a letter written by Andrew Paul about 1830 in SC in which he stated "he was born in Scotland, Parish Kilcarn, on or about the year 1764. My precise age I do not know.My father's name was John Paul, his wife was Jean Liddell.They only had two children, my brother and myself.My brother was the oldest. My father and mother both died and left us in the care of an executor, William Bow, who lived in the city of Glasgow."He left from Belfast with his brother landed in Philadelphia when he was about 20, and after six months he went to the Carolinas.I think it is interesting the name William Bow has been handed down in my Paul family.Whether this executor was a "Paul", is not clear to me.Possibly his older brother, whose name he does not mention, could have spawned a child before he left Glasgow and named him William.Andrew named his third son William Bow Paul.There are many Paul descendents in my part of the world.
