Compiled for: L. J. Jackson [Mr. Laurie J.] and Henry L. Jackson Compiled by: Leonardo Andrea, 4204 Devine St., Columbia 55, S.C. 1. This data has been compiled from what data is to be found under the surname of JACKSON in the South Carolina State Archives in Columbia. It does not contain the data from the Books of Miscellany. These books from 1730 to 1800 have no master index. The funds for this work do not include funds for this painstaking work of checking the unindexed data. In county seats will be found much data such as deeds and administrations and also church records and newspaper files but this order does not include that service at present. I have added to this paper some few items on JACKSON from other files of families I have worked on . . . . . Each item has a margin number and I shall often refer to these numbers for cross reference. I do not give the source of this data except in a general way. This is due to the fact that many of my papers fall into professional hands and they use my data as their own without credit or payment . . . Each item which is of your own family, I will give SOURCE at no extra cost. 2. Mr. L. J. Jackson knows that his family were originally in old Orangeburg District and from there removed to St. James Parish, Goose Creek in Charleston District . . . . The grandfather of L. J.

Andrea: Some 8 weeks ago I went with a client of mine to old Lower 3-Runs in what is now Allendale Co., S.C. but one a part of old Orangeburg and out into Barnwell and then cut into Allendale Co. . . We went to the abandoned site of the old Concord Baptist Church. The cemetery is still used and I noted more than 30 grave stones to Oswalt and Oswald. Some were early. We saw no Jackson stones, but did note Jackson stones in other cemeteries in that area. Jackson _____L. J. Jackson data_____ Page 2 of the original 6.
