I misspelled Wilkes Co.!!! Also, our Y-Cromosome DNA test shows two living male relatives
in SC.
Regarding old Casper, yours is the first story I have seen that says that he defected at
Cowpens. Most stories say that he fought through the War for the Colonials and received
his land grant. I KNOW that he received land in Carter County(now Johnson County, TN) They
traveled from Boone, Wautauga County, taking their wagons apart and hand-carrying their
possessions across the most accessible pass below Boone to finally arrive in Carter Co.
Which one of his children are you descended from?
Barbara
