Hello all! My name is Mary and I live in the beautiful Lowcountry of South Carolina.I am obsessed with genealogy. I have always been interested in the old stories told by family elders but I began to become obsessed when trying to connect the dots. I have been very fortunate to have some amazing family historians that have been working on my Hux/ Hucks sides for years. However, my Phillips and Gatlin lines have all kinds of twists, loops and dead ends that have kept me puzzled for over 20 years.

I also research the Tucker, Cox, Brazier, Langston families. Of course, I have found that I am related to almost the entire Lowcountry of SC and the majority of the Southern States. I often get burnt out and exhausted from the confusing dead ends but I always come back with a passion to see what the next link will tell me. The Phillips brick wall is still on the top of my genealogy wish list!I am a little embarrassed to admit that I have been around for so long but have never really contributed much to Find A Grave. I have the information in many files and I have pictures galore as well. I volunteered and helped many others by sending pictures through the years. I've just never committed to this wonderful project until now. My family cemetery is called by many names. We call it "Johnson's Cemetery" but I've seen it called Wesleyan Methodist, Beaverdam, Community Wesleyan and etc. However, I have family buried in almost every cemetery in Berkeley County.

Feel free to stop by their pages and show some love. You are welcome to follow the links to find out more about my ancestors. Please do not hesitate to message me. I love making connections with fellow researchers and cousins-- I am by far not a professional; nor do I have all the answers, but I absolutely love researching and learning about my family. I absolutely adore old photos and I believe that each and every one gives us a special connection to our past.


(Note: if you haven't already, label each and every photo that you own!!) My Daddy advised me to do that more times than I can count but somehow I still have unlabeled photos that I struggle to identify. If you have happened along my bio by visiting a page, please leave flowers for the departed. Nothing makes me sadder than visiting a neglected or seemingly forgotten grave.


My wish is for us to remember that these were not just names that we are documenting and researching-- these people LIVED! They LAUGHED! They LOVED! Happy researching! NOTE: Any photos I have added are meant to be shared. I believe photos are only enjoyed if passed to those who will treasure them-- otherwise, they are just paper. <3
