James Alexander McManus of Chesterfield, SC

I am looking for info on my father's side. James Alexander McManus, resided, at least the latter half of his life, near Chesterfield, SC. Supposed to have gone by the sobriquet of "Black Jack"; no idea of origins, just rode up up one day; supposed to have have had two brothers who went to Texas at some unspecified earlier date, plus we don't know their names; interestingly, "Houston" has been a popular middle name for a few generations.

I'd like to share notes on ancestors Uriah A. Mcmanus and Exie Williams McManus. They are laid to rest in Pageland, SC. Pageland is in Chesterfield County but on the border of Lancaster County is where the cemetary is. They attended church at Union Hill Baptist Church and that is where the cemetary is. I understand that the land was donated by a Mary McManus and then more later by James Monroe McManus. Theodocia and Jermaine were two of James' sisters as well as 21 other siblings raised by Uriah A McManus!

Any more on these folks???

John Richard McManus m. Carrie Leo Taylor (2nd Wife) (1st wife = Corra Nunie Nelson). Pleasant May Pickney McManus married Elizabeth H Woods. John McManus married Rachel Graham - both born 1810 in SC. Rachel's parents were Ruthy and Peter Graham. 1850 Census has John in Coosa Co., Alabama. 1855 Census has Pleasant and John.

But John's children were born in Georgia and Alabama. John's were Hugh L, Ellison, Pleasant, Francis, Geoge, Mary, Anna, John and Matilda. There may be an Alexander born in 1851 to John and Rachel.

Looking for info on Sarah Ann McManus born Feb.13,1835 died Feb.17,1879 married to Tillmon Adcock born June 2,1827 died Apr.10,1890 .They are buried in Fuston Cemetary (Keltonburg community of Dekalb Co.,TN). The Adcock family originates from Spartanburg S.C. it could be possible that these Mcmanus are from this same area.
