Isaiah Pemberton II was the son of Isaiah Pemberton I and Elizabeth Hall. Isaiah was born and grew up in Frederick County, Virginia (now Jefferson County, West Virginia). When he was a young man his father converted to the Society of Friends (Quaker) faith. About 1774 he migrated from Virginia to Bush River, Newberry, South Carolina. There in 1788 he married Esther Coate.

According to Pemberton family historian Dan Buckley, Isaiah II filed his will in Newberry Co.  (Estate Record Book C, p. 151) 18 Jan 1801:

"I Isaiah Pemberton of the District of Newberry and State of South Carolina being in a Low state of Health but of sound mind and Memory do make this my Last Will and Testament...I leave unto my Beloved Wife Hesther Pemberton all my Estate both real and Personal During her Natural Life...I Will and Bequeath unto my two sons Robert & John Pemberton a Plantation or Tract of Land Containing one hundred acres which I purchased of Jacob Airs...to be Equally divided between them..I Give and Bequeath unto my two sons Isaiah and George all the Tract of Land on Plantation where on I now live containing one Hundred and fifty five acres more or less ...to the Dividing Line between me and Richard Pemberton...I Give and Bequeath unto my two Daughters Mary and Elizabeth all my Household furniture after my Beloved wifes Deceased and all the remaining part of my property to be sold and Equally Divided amongst my six Children...I have here unto set my hand and seal this Eighteenth day of the first month in the year of our Lord Eighteen hundred one..."

In summer, 1805, after Isaiah's death his surviving widow and children joined the great migration to Ohio. Their perilous journey most likely took seven weeks and started on the Broad River and through western North Carolina and the Allegheny mountains to southwest Ohio.

Isaiah's gravestone is missing.

Children (in addition to those listed in familylinks section):
