• Notes

  William Joseph Nettles received a land grant from the King of 100 acreas in 1768. He resided in West Wateree TWP on 25 Mile Creek where Richland, Fairfield join Kershaw (in 1790 this area was know as Lancaster-Camden District). Military records show that William served from 1 Mar 1780 to February 1782 in the PeeDee Regiment of General Francis Marion. There is a record dated 14 Mar 1810 showing where William Joseph Nettles of St. James Goose Creek, Charleston sold all his slaves to his nephew James Nettles for $1500.00. This sale was witnessed by Benjamin Nettles, his son and John Blackman. George and Elizabeth moved from Darlington County, South Carolina to Charleston County, South Carolina in 1775. Here Mrs. Elizabeth Nettles died in 1798 and William married again in 1801. He moved with his new wife Sarah, Malachi, Joseph, Zachariah and Mary to Bigby River, Alabama in 1812. [1]
