I,m finding something new everyday from this site now--its taken me a bit to
recover from being offline for a month,and winding up w/ 450pieces of
southern chat email,w/ viris threats for my new computer to worry
about---even--but I now have two queirys I,d like to respond to--1st,its my
understanding that last names many times became 1st names,and 1st names last
--viceversa--I had a g.g. uncle Morgan Corder,was told that sometime in the
17 oe 18hundreds that may have happened w/ my family--family history passed
down that the Corders worked w/ Morgans to build the Morgan House breed (from
Va.,Tenn.,Ky,Nc,and into SC) mainly from the huge Ben Franklin Corder
plantation in Chester,Fairfield,"Camden Dist.?" or SC of mid and late
1700s---Also---someone wrote about the Name Johnson--I live, in Lexington
County,SC(bordering Edgefield and Aiken cos..the names Johnson and Morris
are very popular here---I knew twins back in highsch. in the 60s named Cary
and Gary Johnson,very athletic,and blond and tall---also worked w/ several
Morris' yrs ago, from Aiken County---so the info keeps coming together--keep
it up Ya,ll-------------
