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!

Susan Higgins

On 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."

monthly meeting of the Friends' church, he was united in marriage to Mary
Cook, who was born in Union district, SC, Nov 18, 1794, the daughter of

Olive Cook

Olive Cook was a woman of heroic character, and passed through thrilling experiences in connection

horse having been stolen by British soldiers, she rescued the animal by
