I am working on a family genealogy project for the CHRISTIAN family. Many of my ancestor were owned by a Christian family in Edgefield in the early 1800s. Gideon CHRISTIAN, Sr. was a possible owner. According to the 1860 U.S. census, Gideon must have left South Carolina in 1850 for Alabama. Around this time my relatives ended up in Midway, Alabama from either Tallapoosa or Talladega County in Alabama. Around, 1855, perhaps Gideon Christian, Jr. and his wife Carrie Christian took my great-great-great-grandmother LOTTIE CHRISTIAN, and her six of her seven boy, where taken to Upshur County, Texas where they farmed cotton. Jacob CHRISTIAN, Lottie's seventh child was kept in Midway where he served as his master's buggy driver in Midway. (Lewis Christian, probably was from Laurens Co. South Carolina). Any information on the Christian family of Edgefield would be greatly appreciated. I am willing to share information. Write: Lairold M. Street, 1337 Hamilton Street, Washington, D.C., N.W. 20011.

Daniel Price moved to Lunenburg County, VA and from there to Chester County, SC.

All of the sons remained in Edgefield County and John died there around 1807 leaving a will.
