by a circular saw. Listed on his death certificate is William Blizzard and
Lizzie Miles. I believe this may be incorrect, because the informant was
a neighbor and not a family member. Also I believe this to be incorrect,
because he is not listed in any census related to a William Blizzard and
Elizabeth Martin (not Miles). The only census I could find him on was in
1920. He owned some of the land purchased by Fort Jackson. If anyone could
help me with this, I would greatly appreciate it. 29 March 2007 |

| BROOKS Twins |
This occurred in about summer 1966/7 on the Peninsula in Charleston,
SC at that home for unwed mothers near the Citadel. It was called Criitte(n)don?
Everybody had a cover name. My sister called herself BRIDGET Brookes. She
was born in NJ but was living in Aiken, SC and my father brought her down
to Charleston to hide her, so to speak. I want to find out if they are dead
(and where they were buried) or alive (and where they are). My mother
says: "I never did believe they had not survived -- they were full-term to
begin with -- and when I asked the dep. right there in the hospital to SEE
their birth record, they refused me!! Then I asked to see their death record
- they REFUSED me!! Then I asked to take them home to Aiken for family burial
-- they REFUSED me!! I made an appt. with the obstetrics dept. head for that
very afternoon & got a time -- but when that time was there, the nurse
said he was called-away -- so I made appt. for the next day - and got there
-- I was told he wasn't available or something like that! I had to return
to Aiken that afternoon -- so when I got home I wrote to the dept. head doctor
- he never answered -- so I wrote again - and he never answered. I could
not get an attorney -- I had no money of any kind. Your father did NOTHING!!
NOTHING!! I asked him to -- he couldn't have cared less! I once suggested
to LBT that her name be registered wherever you do it - in case the children
(if living) needed to know about their parent (blood parent) -- for health
reasons later in life. I still wonder what really happened to them, of course.
When I asked to bring the twins home to Aiken for family burial, the head
nurse said "they've already been buried" (they had only so-called died the
day before!!). I asked her WHERE they had been buried -- she said (quipped,
actually) "Oh, we have a special place" - I asked where that was - she quipped
"It's confidential - we don't give that information". How DARE THEY!! They
were MY GRANDCHILDREN!! That's how I was treated. So, I do wonder if they
really died -- I could get no evidence of their dying. LBT's name at the
Crittendon home was Bridget Brooks. Well, if they did live, they are age
37 now." My name is susan taylor aldridge. I am the twins' aunt. I
need to put this subject into my solved box. I am doing the family tree research.
And will gladly give out all info needed for anyone who can help. 27 Sept.

Thomas Brown operated a trading post on the "Congarees" in the 1740-50
years. It has been told that Indians came from as far away as NY and Ohio
to trade with him. An event occured that made the Indians angry. They kidnapped
him and took him back up north. Captain John Pearson and his militia tracked
him down only to find him living contently with the Indians and having two
sons. Thomas and his sons returned to the Congarees. "The History of
