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 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."
