The Weems of Abbeville South Carolina

At least five different Weems men settled on Long Cane Creek in Abbeville County South Carolina before the Revolutionary War. Even today there are Weems living in Abbeville County both white and black. For years genealogists have been confused about who is the son of whom but land records make it clear that '4' men; Thomas (Eleanor) Weems Redfearn Weems Thomas (and Elizabeth) Weems and Henry Weems all were granted land on Long Cane Creek. While the county lines have changed dramatically over the years Long Cane Creek remained a constant. It was here that thousands of Weems descendants both black and white call home. Today DNA evidence is slowly dividing the different Weems children into family groups. Included here are the descendants of each of those identified children; regardless of who their parent(s) was. There is most certainly missing information errors in dates and places and misspellings. Feel free to scribble on your book and make your corrections and additions.
