Pat,
Jacob Shadrack Champion is my ggggg-grandfather! :-)
There is a multitude of information on Jacob Shadrack Champion.
I have information from a book entitled
"Morgans of Wilcox and Clarke Counties Alabama and Allied Families" researched
and authored by Helen Morgan Akens and Sheldon LeGrande Morgan. Library of Congress
Catalogue Number 94-067187, copyrighted 1994. One of their "Allied Families"
chaptered in the book, is chapter four "The Champion Family."
The section begins with Jacob's ancestors from the mid-1600's.
Too much information to include here. Here is an exerpt from this book that first speaks
of Jacob.
"Jacob Shadrack Champion, son of William and Tabitha (Green)Champion, was born 1750
in Kershaw Co., SC, and married 1776 in Kershaw Co., SC, Ann Martin. Jacob Shadrack died
12 Jun 1832 in Camden Dist, SC. Ann died 1832 in Kershaw Co., SC." Three and a half
pages of information, including the will of Jacob, follows this entry. The chapter carries
on with his and Anne's children and so on.
Perhaps you can locate this book at your local library. I will be happy to scan the
paperwork I have and send it to you, but at the moment I am remote, on vacation, and will
not return home until Tuesday, March 28. I have my genealogy information with me, if
there is a specific question you have, I can find it for you if you'd like. I will be
checking my email daily.
Sincerely,
Sherry Champion
