Mother: Agnes MCNEALY |
All these families lived in the Muddy Creek and Black Mingo
Creek areas of Williamsburg County near Indiantown and most
appear to have been Presbyterian."
"1790 Census lists Alexander as the only male in his household
with two females. In 1811 Taxes were paid on his estate. Ref:
Boddie's, "History of Williamsburg"."
The Federal Census of 1790 list an Alexander McCants living in
Georgetown District, Prince Fredericks parish having one male
over 16 years of age including the head of the household; no
males under 16; two females including the head of the family and
one slave. I believe the male to be Alexander, the two females
to be Margery, his wife, and their oldest daughter, Agnes.
The Federal Census of 1800 list an Alexander McCants living in
Williamsburg county having one male twenty-six to forty-five
years of age including the head of the family, two males under
ten years of age, two females less than ten years of age, one
female twenty-six to forty -five and six slaves. This appears
to be Alexander and Margery, sons James and Alexander and
daughters Agnes and Sarah.
Margery is listed as head of the household in the 1810 Census.
One Male twenty-six to forty-five; two males ten to sixteen; two
males less than ten years; two females between ten and sixteen;
and eight slaves.
This appears to be Alexander and Margory, sons James and
Alexander being between ten and sixteen; Thomas and Samuel under
ten; Agnes and Sarah between ten and sixteen; (altho Agnes would
have been over twenty by this time).
Nov 23, 1817, Court of Common Pleas gives information concerning
the death of Alexander and names of wife and children.
William Thompson and Sarah, his wife verses the Administrators
of Agnes Thompson, the Administrators of Alexander McCants,
Thomas McCants, Alexander McCants, James McCants and Samuel
McCants. Writ of Partition. Whereas Alexander died possessed
at the time of his death of certain negroes and other property,
the administration has been granted to William Thompson and
James McCants, one of the children of the intestate. Alexander
McCants left a widow Margery and sundry children (besides the
said James) to wit, Agnes, Alexander, Thomas and Samuel.
William Thompson intermarried with Agnes who since the death of
Alexander died on whose estate William Thompson has also
administered. William Thompson has since intermarried with
Sarah, sister of his late wife Agnes. Margery McCants has also
been granted to William Thompson and James McCants.
Nothing more is known of Alexander and Margery McCants or of
their daughter Agnes who apparently died before 1817 and was
married to William Thompson. Neither Alexander or Margery
appear in the Census of 1820, therefore, both must have died
prior to this time.
The 1820 Census does include a James McCants, head of the
household, being between sixteen and twenty-six years with a son
under ten year and one female between sixteen and twenty-six
years. Children of James McCants are mentioned in the Will of
James Daniel.
The Indiantown presbyterian Church was founded about 1757; the
records of fellowship list among the baptised members in 1819
James A. McCants, Alexander James McCants, Agnes Daniel, Martha
Daniel, Esther E. Daniel (D), John Gotea (D), William Gotea (D),
Sarah Gotea, John J. Gotea (D) Elizabeth M. Gotea, Samuel
Singletary (D), and James D. Singletary.
Baptised members listed in 1821 included James Alexander
McCants, Martha McCants, John Thomas McCants, James D. Daniel
and Martha M. McCants in 1824.
Members in Full Communion in 1821 included James McCants,
Elizabeth McCants (D), Jannet Daniel (D), Alexander McCants,
Martha McCants, James Daniel (D), Martha Daniel (D), Jannet
Daniel (D), Jane Daniel (D), John Barr (D), Jannet Barr (D), and
in 1829 Agnes Daniel, Martha Daniel, and Elvira Daniel.
Boddie's "History of Williamsburg", c 21, writes about the
history of Indiantown Presbyterian Church between 1819 and 1830.
"The following infants were received into the church by Baptism,
February 22, 1819: Calvin, son of Hugh and Elizabeth Hannah;
Alexander James, son of Alexander and Martha McCants; William
Hitch, son of John and Jane Price; Mary SCOTT, daughter of
George and Jannet Barr..."
CENSUS: 1790. Alexander McCants of Georgetown District, Prince
Fredericks Parish. 1 male over 16 years of age including the
head of family 0 males under 16 2 females including the head of
family 1 slave.
