Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Spartanburg County: Embracing an Account of Many Important Events, and Biographical Sketches of Statesmen, Divines and Other Public Men, and the Names of Many Others Worthy of Record in the History of Their County Three years ago the author published a volume entitled, "Colonial and Revolutionary History of Upper South Carolina," embracing for the most part the primitive and revolutionary history of the territory comprising the original county of Spartanburg, S. C., which narrative, so far as active hostilities were concerned, ends with the year 1781. The present volume, comprising a history of the original county of Spartanburg proper, is intended to be a continuation of the first volume, and begins with the organization of said county in 1785. Of the events as occurring in the same between the years mentioned (1781-5) he has been unable to obtain information from any source. The author, in presenting this volume to the public, has no apologies to make for whatever may appear to be his shortcomings in the humble but pleasant task which he has had before him. Written and compiled one hundred and fifteen years after the organization of his native county, he has labored under many trying difficulties to collect the material matter and data found recorded herein, most of which, in course of time, would have been lost in tradition. If his efforts along this line meet with the approval of a generous public, he will feel more than gratified. Spartanburg county, now one of the most interesting and progressive in the State, has a history behind her worthy of preservation. In the advancement which she has already made in religious and educational institutions, in manufactures and agriculture, she has made a record inferior to none in the State.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By: John B. O. Landrum, Pub. 1900, reprinted 2023, 544 pages, Index, Soft Cover, ISBN #9787-1-63914-104-3. A native of the Piedmont section of South Carolina, Dr. J.B.O. Landrum wrote the History of Spartanburg County as a continuation of his Colonial and Revolutionary History of Upper South Carolina. This reprint reproduces the original 1900 edition and covers the period from the organization of the county in 1785 to the Civil War. Over 100 family sketches and more than 125 portraits make this volume of primary interest to the genealogist, and thousands of names of early Spartans are reported. The first census of Spartanburg County taken in 1790, estimates the population at 8,800, and the heads of families residing in the area at the time are listed. Included also are the names of all the Spartanburg men who served in the Civil War, with the names of battle for those killed or wounded. Although it also contains descriptions of the textile industry, churches, schools, and politics, this work is mainly an aid to family history and contains much valuable genealogical material. Surnames of persons or families included in the biographical sketches that the author included in this book, are: Allen, Amos, Anderson, Archer, Ballenger, Barry, Benson, Berwick, Bishop, Blake, Blassingame, Bomar, Bowden, Brockman, Brown, Burke, Burnett, Caldwell, Calvert, Camp, Cannon, Carlisle, Carpenter, Chapman, Choice, Clarke, Cleveland, Cofield, Compton, Crocker, Dean, Douglass, Drummond, Duncan, Earle, Edwards, Elford, Evins, Ezell, Farley, Farrow, Fielder, Fleming, Foster, Griffith, Hampton, Harris, Henneman, High, James, Jordan, Judd, Kennedy, Kilgore, Lake, Lanford, Landrum, Lee, Legg, Lipscomb, Martin, Mason, McCullough, McDowell, McMillen, Monk, Montgomery, Moore, Nesbitt, Nicholls, Odel, Pendleton, Petty, Poole, Reid, Richardson, Rowland, Rudisail, Russell, Sloan, Smith, Snoddy, Switzer, Thomas, Thompson, Trimmier, Tucker, Turner, Vernon, Walker, Westmoreland, Wilkins, Wilmot, Wilson, Wingo, Winsmith, Wofford, Wood, Woodruff, and Zimmerman.

Excerpt: ...and her great'grandfather John were brothers. CHAPTER XXVIII. THE WILKINS FAMILY..The ancestor of the Wilkins families in Spartanburg and Union counties, South Carolina, and in Rutherford county, North Carolina, was William Wilkins, a native of Virginia, who was among the early settlers in the territory afterwards embraced in the original county of Spartanburg. He came before the outbreak of the Revolution, and the place of his settlement was in the vicinity of Goucher Creek, one of the tributaries of Thickety Creek. The tradition that we gather with reference to him is that he was a most estimable citizen, and raised a large and highly respectable' family, as we will further show. The wife of W1n. Wilkins was Elizabeth (called Betsey) Terrell, who descended from a distinguished ancestry as shown by reference to a compiled genealogy of the family in both England and France by General /V. H. Terrell of Indiana. Elizabeth V/'ilkins came from the Terrell family in Culpepper county, Va. They were gentlemen and held large grants of land from the King. In the privy council of Charles I. was Sir Timothy Terrell, gentleman, the father of Robert Terrell (born 1696), who was the father of Edmond Terrell to whom he (Robert) Terrell willed large tracts of land in Culpepper county. Edmond left seven or nine children, ' of whom Mrs. Wilkins is believed to be one, as she was a member of the Culpepper branch of this family. William and Elizabeth Wilkins had born unto them sixteen children as shown by 'the family record as follows: Mary, born November 11th, 1769, married Thomas Gillenwater; Elizabeth, born August 11th, 1771, married Wm. Cantrell; Milly, born March 5th, 1773, married Davis Goudelock; Terrell, born February 21st, 177 5, married Sallie...
