First, a PINCKNEY question:

What relation was CHARLES PINCKNEY to HOPSON PINCKNEY and ROGER
PINCKNEY?  I believe the latter two to be brothers; is CHARLES a
brother, too?  Which CHARLES PINCKNEY would this be?  Who are their
parents?

HOPSON PINCKNEY and ROGER PINCKNEY each married QUASH girls, who in turn
were daughters of ROBERT QUASH and ELIZABETH DUBOIS.

Several of the folks below have both Charleston connections as well as
other low-country connections.  Was this fairly common in this time
period?  Or was it only the wealthier planters who could afford both
town and country living?
