One odd fact is that the graves of both the founders of Troy have been lost. John Hanchey (1808-1844), born around 1808 to Martin and Nancy Mathis Hanchey in Horry District, South Carolina, died in Pike County around 1844 not long after the incorporation of Troy, but neither his grave nor his wife Sarah Ann Elizabeth Hanchey's grave is anywhere to be found.
John and his father James spelled their name "Coskrey," but most other members of the family who immigrated to the U.S. and Canada used the spelling of "Coskery."
