The Daily Phoenix, 7 Oct. 1865
William Irwin/Erwin was born in Roscommon, Ireland about 1818. He was a schoolmaster. The 1850 U.S. Federal Census recorded him in the town of Greenville. Amelia Reinhardt (his wife) with sons Thomas (age 4), William (born 1850) and daughter Catherine (age 2) were also in his household as were James Bradshaw, a student born in Ireland and John Bradshaw, born in New Jersey.
At that time he enslaved a 52 year old man and a 16 year old girl.
By 1860, he was living in Spartanburg, South Carolina. He was recorded as a teacher with Real Estate of $10,000 and Personal Estate of $3,000. He enslaved two women, one aged 24 and the other aged 17.
He died in Spartanburg 2 July 1893 and is buried at the Episcopal Church of the Advent in Spartanburg.

Michael O'Connor (1793-) Ireland & Beaufort County, South Carolina

1/22/2022

0 Comments

 
According to the 1850 U.S. Federal Census, Michael O'Connor was born about 1793 in Ireland. At the time of the Census, he was living in the town of Beaufort, St Helena Parish with his South Carolina-born wife Mary, and Lawrence, Michael and Edmund (his sons?). Also present in the household were Susan Beal and Sarah Arden. Ann Connolly, aged 13, the youngest member of the household was also Irish-born. Michael O'Connor was recorded as a store-keeper with Real Estate valued at $16.000 which was far in excess of that of his neighbours. John M Verdier, a lawyer and planter had Real Estate valued at $5,000, a Methodist Clergyman, D. D. Cox had $2,500, Thomas McMillan, a baker $2,000, the Planter Edgar Fripp, $5,000, Maria Cook, a midwife, $3,200 and Elizabeth H. Thompson, $500. 
Michael O'Connor was also recorded in St. Helena Parish, Beaufort 1850, as the owner of 20 human beings, 6 men and boys ranging in age from 65-2 and 14 women and girls, aged 50-1.

Note
There is a listing for a Michael O'Connor, born in Ireland, who died  5 June 1850 with a wife Mary who is buried at St. Peter's Catholic Church Cemetary, Beaufort. However the 1850 Census in Beaufort took place on 27 Nov. 1850. It is possible that the date on the headstone is inaccurate but I am unable to verify at this time. There was, however, a woman named Mary O'Connor living with a Lizzie Catherwood in Beaufort in 1860. She had Real Estate to the value of $10,000, Personal Estate of £18,500 and 13 enslaved people. There is also a tree on familysearch which identifies this Michael O'Connor as having a birthplace of Charlesville, Co. Cork but I cannot verify that either at this time.

James Bailey, Edgefield, South Carolina, 1850 Slave Schedule

In 1850, James Bailey enslaved a woman born about 1827 and a baby boy born in 1849. His neighbours Benjamin Stevens enslaved 28 human beings and John A Partlow enslaved 45 people. Three other slaveholders in Edgefield carried the name Bailey; Elizabeth and William who each enslaved one person and Richard who enslaved six people. William, born 1811, a cabinet-maker and Richard born 1823, a carpenter were both born in Ireland.

Notes
It is hoped that this information will assist those researching the Bailey family name in Edgefield, South Carolina. I have decided to upload information about each Irish slaveholder even though it may not include the names of enslaved people at this time. If you have found a will or estate inventory or any other document which names enslaved people, please do not hesitate to post below in the comments. It will be gratefully and respectfully received and will assist others in the search for their ancestors.
Regarding the Irish Bailey slaveholders listed above, I am wondering if they are all from one family since they are realtively close in age, settled in the same area and were all carpenters.

The following advertisement is enclosed because it names an African American family group in 1856, Polly, Betty, Milley, Hudson, Avery, Sylva, Bully and Mary, as enslaved by a Bailey family. However, based on the information I have at the moment, I do not think the slaveholders are of the Irish-born family outlined above.
Picture
Semi-weekly Camden Journal, 5 Dec. 1851
1860
Richard Bailey, carpenter was enumerated in Marion Eastern Division, Perry, Alabama in 1860, with his wife Sarah and sons John and James. Richard, as far as I can tell, was no-longer a slaveholder. This raises the question, what became of the six people he enslaved in 1850? A number of claims against Richard Bailey were reported in the Edgefield Advertiser in 1853. According to the newspaper, Richard Bailey and family were no-longer resident in Edgefield at that time. Did Richard incur financial losses?
The 1860 Census throws up another puzzle. There was a man named John Thompkins with Real Estate valued at $4500 resident in the Bailey household and two children Mary & Edmund (transcribed Emal) Thompkins.

Charlotte Reed, Gills Creek, Lancaster County, South Carolina

The Reed Family 1870 Gills Creek, Lancaster County, South Carolina

​In the auction notice of William McKenna's estate 1861, a woman called Charlotte born about 1821 was named. She was a skilled seamstress and cook. Her husband was not named but 'belongs to William Reid'. Her children were named as William born about 1845 a ploughboy, Anna (1848) a housegirl, Louis (1850), Nancy (1853), Mary (1858),  and an infant (1860).
In 1870, Charlotte was living with her husband Samuel Reed, born c1823, a farm labourer, in Gills Creek Township, Lancaster County. Louis  and Nancy were still living at home. Agnes, Maggie, Abram, Sallie and Harriet were also named. Another member of the household is Ally McKenna aged about 75 years. It is likely this is the same woman named as Alley, born about 1797 in the auction notice with 'Old' Joe, not to be sold' born 1775. This raises a question as to whether Ally was Charlotte's mother.
Samuel had become a mail carrier by 1880. He and Charlotte were still living in Gills Creek with their son Abraham/Abram and daughter Sallie.

It is possible that the slaveholder William Reed 1791-1863 was the man who enslaved Samuel Reed. William Reed was recorded as owning 25 human beings in 1860. He was a farmer with Real Estate to the value of $4,200 and Personal Estate of $14,655. Reed was born in Pennsylvania and his wife Isabella was born in South Carolina. Some sources identify William Reed as the son of Margaret Davis 1754-1850, born in Ireland. 

Notes
No Death Certificates for Charlotte and Samuel Reed have been found to date. The search for the will and estate inventory of William Reed who died in 1863 is also ongoing.

Alexander Austin was born in Co. Antrim, Ireland about 1793. His wife was Isabella Coleman, born 1819, also of Co. Antrim. In 1850, Alexander and Isabella were recorded as living in Abbeville, South Carolina with their daughters Lethe A (11), Susan (9), Sarah (3), Martha A (2) and sons John (7) and Robert (5). Austin was enumerated as a farmer with Real Estate to the value of $1500.
In the same year, Austin enslaved seven people, a woman aged 70, a man aged 60, a woman aged 55, another woman aged 18 and three boys aged 15, 14 and 10. Neighbouring slaveholders were James Johnson, Noah Reeves, William P Martin, William Long, Frances Johnson, Daniel Gent, George Mattison and John Smith.
By 1860, Alexander and Isabella had three more sons McJohnson (8), Samuel (6) and Franklin (4). In 1860 Alexander Austin's Real Estate was valued at $3500 and his Personal Estate as $7765. William Faut, Overseer, was also resident in his household. Faut had a Personal Estate of $400.
The people enslaved by Austin in 1860 were four women aged 95, 65, 22 and 18, two young men aged 20 and 18, a boy aged 2 and a baby girl of 6 months.
Alexander Austin died in Abbeville in May 1864 preceded by his son Robert who died in Feb. of the same year whilst serving in the 6th South Carolina Cavalry. Isabella died in 1878 and they are buried at Friendship Presbyterian Church, Laurens County, South Carolina.
