Thomas STRIBLING, Jr.  and his wife Nancy Ann KINCHELOE STRIBLING
moved their family from Berryville, Frederick Co., VA, to SC about
1755.   Thomas and his son James Clayton STRIBLING  participated
in the American Revolution via the SC Militia.  Thomas and Ann
died in the part of Old Pendleton District which would become
Anderson County.

Clayton died in 1831 in Union District., SC.  According to family
legend during the American Revolution,  Clayton was captured by
Tories, scalped, and left for dead.  Mary "Molly" "Polly BECKHAM
(daughter of John "Jack" BECKHAM and his wife Elizabeth "Libby"
HENDERSON STRIBLING) swam across a river with a slave to rescue
Clayton.  Clayton was carried to the Beckham home where he was
nursed back to health before marrying Mary  BECKHAM.  

Would like to share information with other descendants of this
Stribling family.
