Hi, my name is Eleanor Bateman. I am working on tracing my family
genealogy, taking over for my grandma. She got stumped back at a
Robert Seth Daniels, born in 1809, in South Carolina. All we know
about his parents is that they died while he was still young, and he
was adopted by an Angus Patterson. I was wondering if you wouldn't
happen to know of any Roberts who were orphaned at a young age around
then? I saw that y'all have done extensive research into the Daniels
line. If there's nothing easy to find don't worry about it - I just
was hoping you might have the missing link :)
If it helps at all, here's the info that I have on him and his downline:
? ? ?Robert Seth Daniels, born 12/21/1809 in South Carolina. Married
Regina Hill January 29th, 1833 in Dallas Co. AL. Died 08/29/1878, in
Grandview Texas.
? ? ?Angus Patterson Daniels, (named for Robert's adopted dad), born
02/10/1840, died 10/19/1930. Married Jane D. Ramsey 01/03/1844 -
06/19/1873.
? ? ?Meek Levelle Daniels?(10/17/1871 - 08/30/1923) married Etta
Harrell?(08/27/1877 - 11/22/1957).
? ? ?Milburn Levelle Daniels (05/24/1906 - 05/19/1947) married Buelah
Belle Joss (12/08/1910 - 04/18/2004)
? ? ?Paul Rooney Daniels (07/14/1941 - 08/21/2018) married Evon Taylor
(12/18/1940 - present)
? ? ?Dan Rooney Daniels (05/11/1962 - present) married Vicki McGatlin
(04/16/1962 - present)
? ? ?Me! Eleanor Dawn (Daniels) Bateman, (born 07/14/2000).

Feel free to use any of that info if it's helpful at all to you :) I
really appreciate your time, and again, don't worry about it if
there's not a quick, easy answer. But if you happen to have any info
at all about Robert Seth, please let me know!!

Hi, Eleanor.

I can't help you with this line, at least at this time. It has no known
connection to my O'Daniel, Daniel, Daniell lines in SC.

Don't know how much gen research experience you have, so I'll offer a
couple of suggestions if I may.

1. Were you familiar with or work with folks in the DANIEL List on
rootsweb, com? Ancestry.com bought out Rootsweb and terminated this
terrific collaboration site. You can still access the Daniel-L Archives
on rootsweb and search for data there. Much was shared and archived on
numerous Daniel lines.

2. Kevin Daniel is the project manager of the Daniel DNA Project.
Reach him at
If you haven't had an appropriate gen Y-DNA test on a direct male
descendant, Kevin can advise what you may need go get. A basic Y-DNA
test of 12 markers is totally worthless for discovering family lines, 67
markers and higher 111 markers are more likely to help. Problem is that
unless someone directly related to your Daniel line has tested, there
can be no match. They would have to be from Robert Seth's brothers, if
any, or from descendants of Robert Seth's uncles, if any.
He is also moderator of the new free Daniel research site at email
address: Daniel groups.io
You will have to join the group, but it's free and you may find help
from contacts there.

3. There are many records available online at the SC Archives at

Large amounts of info there including land grants and old last wills and
testaments. Search by surnames, places.

4. I have a copy of "S. C. WILLS" an Index to "South Carolina Wills 1670
- 1853 or later" Tell me what districts or counties Robert Seth lived in
early SC and I can check for surnames county book and page info.
Nothing else in the book, it is an index only. You may be able to find
it in a library, author Mary Bondurant Warren.
Angus Patterson is listed in Barnwell County Book 2 Page 236.

I did find Seth Daniel and A. Patterson listed as witnesses in the 7
June 1835 LW&T of William Owen, recorded 19 Mar 1836 in Barnwell Will
Book "C", Page 157.

As you may know, I did have family in Barnwell District, SC.

Best regards,
Bob Daniell
