Subject: Re: William Woods (1695-1785) Orange County NC > Greene County TN From: joyemac Date: April 10, 1999 Brett, John McManus married Elizabeth Wood(s) in Anson Co., NC in 1784. Do you have anything on this couple and who their parents were and if they came to Edgefield Dist, SC after their marriage? I have a John McManus, b. ca 1759/62, d. in Edgefield County, SC 1837. I think he may have been the son of James and Mary McManus of Anson Co., NC . James died ca 1760/61. He was a Captain in the NC militia and was evidently killed in the Cherokee Indian War. He is mentioned a couple of times in the "Carolina Cradles" book. It also mentions he came from Maryland. There was a John McManus in MD in the early 1700s and could have been he father. I have other information on these families if anyone is interested. (Or you can find more information on my McManus webpage below.) Thanks, Joye (Support Rootsweb!
