horse having been stolen by British soldiers, she rescued the animal by
waving her apron in such a way as to frighten the horse, which threw its
rider and escaped. She died in Tippecanoe county, Indiana at the advanced

On December 2, 1771, in Berkeley County, South Carolina, he married Susanna WRIGHT, daughter of Rachel WELLS and John WRIGHT.
Tom,
You're a peach! I am trying to get the new baby's name so she can be added.
You have been a wealth of information. FYI: I am trying to get Isaac "Big
Isaac" added to the DAR patriot's index on the basis of a skirmish he had
with a British soldier when he denied him rations. The soldier tried to get
into his corn crib and drew his sword. Isaac disarmed him and chased him
off. Quite a feat for a Quaker minister, but it clearly shows where his
loyalties were. Wish me luck!
Suzy
Susan HigginsOn pages 1 and 2 of the Annals of Newberry it is said of Isaac "Big Isaac"
Hollingsworth... "He possessed great physical strength and unbounded
courage. During the Revolution when a British officer approached his corn
crib he was forbidden entrance. The officer drew his sword and threatened.
Big Isaac went to him, toed the sword from him, saying: 'Thus far shalt thou
go, but no farther.' The officer succumbed. Once, when he was about starting
to meeting, a poor Irishman accosted him desiring employment. Isaac having
nothing else for him to do set him to moving a pile of stones. On returning
from meeting and finding the job done he had him to move the stones back.
After which he paid him."
She was born 1755 in Orange Co., NC, and died 31 Jul 1830 in West Milton, Miami Co. Oh.
