1820 - 1840

Norman McLeod -identity unknown Census Kershaw District 1820 -1 m 45+ foreigner not naturalized - Census Kershaw District 1830 - NOT FOUND - born before 1775.

Norman McLeod - Indirect Line - Born cr. 1788 probably on board ship from Ireland to Virginia, he was the son of Angus and Nancy McCutchen/eon McLeod, brother of Alexander McLeod, h/o Sarah McIntosh and brother to Daniel McLeod, h/o Catherine McLean. Named in his brother Alexander's 1824 will as co-executor with Daniel, the last known document for him is his March 8 1824 appearance in Probate Court where he swore the executor oath. Not named in his sister Margaret's 1828 Will, it would appear he was deceased by that year or had left the area.

Norman McLeod, husband of Betsy McLeod - this Norman was the son of Alexander and Sarah {Gellis?/McCaskill?} McLeod. His wife was the daughter of Angus and Nancy McCutchen McLeod, making this another of my indirect lines. Norman and Betsy McLeod McLeod migrated to Alabama in 1839 along with Besy's sisters, Mary Polly McLeod McCoy/McKay, and Nancy McLeod Bethune

Norman McLeod, husband of Elizabeth Lackey - the exact identity of this Norman is unknown - he, like the first Norman above, is never found in any census in Sumter or Kershaw Districts. On a recent research trip, I pulled Deeds concerning Elizabeth Lackey McLeod and confirmed that she was indeed the wife of a Norman McLeod.

Norman h/o Elizabeth Cade is claimed as a brother of Daniel McLeod, h/o Jane R. Evans - A descendant of George Washinton McLeod has participated in the ACMS YDNA Project; his Haplotype (think signature) has a clear pattern of mutation that allows us to place him in a Branch of MacLeods whose Most Recent Common Ancestor was born about 1700 AD in Scotland.

The project would greatly benefit (as would researchers of this family) from the participation of a male from Daniel and Jane's line; should such a descendant match the clear pattern of mutation found in the descendant of Norman and Elizabeth Cade McLeod, the relationship would be proven. The research on this family has a great deal of questionable attachments which will be discussed below - YDNA can help to sort out the truth behind those assumed attachments.

1836 - A Norman petitions the court along with other area residents to charter a railroad from Darlington to Wrights Bluff on the Santee River. October 11 1836 Series Number S165015 Item:00084 Description: CITIZENS OF DARLINGTON, BISHOPVILLE, MECHANICSVILLE, SUMTERVILLE, AND CLARENDON, PETITION TO CHARTER A RAILROAD FROM DARLINGTON TO WRIGHTS BLUFF ON SANTEE. accessed 8/27/2004 by Lori McLeod Wilke !Source: http://www.archivesindex.sc.gov/search
