McCormick County Genealogy
McCormick County was formed in 1916 from Greenwood County and Abbeville County. The county was named for Cyrus Hall McCormick, an inventor. The Cherokee Indians massacred early settlers in 1760 at Long Cane. As a response, Fort Charlotte was built to help protect the area. This was one of the first forts captured by the Colonists in the Revolutionary War. Gold was found on the site where the current town of McCormick sits around 1850. Cyrus McCormick had purchased the gold mine and then later gave some land for the town. The town bearing his name was established in 1882 and is the county seat.

SonyaCJ on “Crider and Nettles familes that lived in Orangeburg Dist. before 1820″
My 4g-grandfather, Frederick Crider and wife, Susannah, came from Orangeburg Dist., S.C. to Southwest Mississippi (Franklin County) before 1820. Their daughter, Elizabeth Chrishine, married Elisha Nettles before 1820 and was also living in Franklin County, Mississippi. There is also an Elisha Nettles in Orangeburg Dist. in 1820. All of this is based on the 1820 census for S.C. and MS. I am trying to find out if the younger Elisha Nettles that married the Crider is the son of the older Elisha Nettles living in Orangeburg Dist. There was another Nettles that came to MS about 1810 from another district in S.C. but he left MS about 1815 and moved to Louisiana. There is no marriage License on record in Mississippi for Elisha Nettles and Elizabeth Christine Crider. Can anyone help me? I need to know if these two Elisha’s are father & son and if Elisha Nettles married Eliz. Crider in South Carolina.
