Dennis R. York: U. S. Census 1820 Pendleton District, South Carolina; Page 203/49, line 31, John YORK 2-2-0-0-1-0-? -3-1-0-1-0 It is most interesting to note that on this same census page is Semore York, line 18 of Randolph County, North Carolina that migrated into Rabun County, Georgia in about 1822. Next to Semore York is John Woodall, line 19. Also between Semore York and John York is Gary Lee, line 28. As Judson Crow suggests this John York is the one in Rutherford County, NC that married Rachael Lee.

Judson Crow: The John York on page 47 of the Pendleton County (District) SC is probably the John York that married Rachel Lee on 25 Jan 1805 in Rutherford Co, NC with D. Lyles as the Bondsman. I am not an expert on Pendleton Co, SC records, but the Cracy (Crecy, Leucrecy) Lee that is listed three names before John York on page 47 of the 1820 Pendleton Co, SC census is a good indication it is the same John York. Barbara (Wilson) Dooley has done thorough research on this John York and co-sponsored, with Pete Homesley, Michael York in the York DNA project. She and I have exchanged much information from the Rutherford Co, NC records in an attempt to understand the relationship of Crecy Lee and John York as given in the Rutherford Co, NC Deed Book 25 -- Pages 217 and 218, November the 7th 1810 whre Crecy Lee, John York and Hillary Scott sold on 12 September 1810 100 acres to Mary Hampton. My wife and I compiled land record abstracts for the Lee, York, Hampton and other families in an effort to identify the 100 acres but only found some general indication of the location. Our transfcription of the deed and other miscellaneoud abstracts relating to John York (husband of Rachel Lee) are contained in the attachmen to this email.

"We have NOT found Hillery Scott and Lecrecy Lee in the Rutherford County, NC 1820 census records."
