My 5th Great Grandfather.
#### NOTE: Some have in their family trees that William B. and Elizabeth Phillips had a daughter named SUSAN. They did NOT. If you are a descendant and finding family, do not record Susan because it is not correct. There are several sources that prove there was not a Susan. She is not mentioned in William B. Barwick's will, nor the letter Benjamin Barwick wrote giving all of siblings names.
William and Elizabeth were the parents of 15 children. Their descendants are many and populated the southern states.
Robert Dan Barwick has researched the family, the old fashion way of traveling and spending time reviewing records in archives of several states.
The following was written and researched by Dan. Thank you Dan for your hard work.
William and Elizabeth moved with their family and William's parents to the Cheraw District (later Darlington Co), SC abt 1785.
William was first granted land in the Cheraw District in 1786. Nathan Barwick's obit states that Nathan moved with his parents to SC when he was a boy. Since Nathan was born in 1782, the move would have occurred between 1782 and 1786. William appeared with Elizabeth on both the 1790 and 1890 census. Their growing family is shown with precisely accurate household content on both census counts. William died Aug 31, 1807 when he made one of the deathbed wills which characterized Colonial citizens. The will was proved by affidavits of James Herron, John Register and James Griffin. It was sworn before John Mixon, Jr.
Elizabeth continued to live in Darlington District, SC until her death in 1820. She was listed as head of household on both the 1810 and 1820 census. She was dead by Aug 1820 as Noel, her son, applied for letters of administration for her estate on that date.
A heated controversy developed between the sons of William and Elizabeth after Elizabeth's death. When William died in 1807 he left a will which directed that his property be first left to his wife and then to his seven youngest sons upon her death. Noel, born in 1798 and one of the seven youngest sons, was named as executor of the estate. A complaint was filed on Jan 1, 1821 in the Court of Equity at Darlington Courthouse alleging that Noel had refused to abide by his father's wishes in the division of certain of the real property in the estate. John, William, Stephen, and Redden were complainants and Noel and Samuel were defendants in the action. The youngest son, Eli, born in 1804, is said to have died interstate and with no heirs by the date of filing. The widow of William is also said in the complaint to have died.
A hearing was held at Darlington Courthouse on the second Mon in Feb, 1821. A writ was issued to a group of Darlington men consisting of Nathan Hanks, Richard IFigure Moses Waters, John Beasley and James Herron. The writ directed that the group attempt to divide the land and failing such an attempt, arrange for its sale. The property was appraised on Oct 23, 1821 and subsequently sold with closing in June 1822. The buyer, Edward Woodham, paid $626, the appraisal amount for the land, in two annual installments in April 1823 and April 1824.
The controversy over William's estate and the subsequent sale of his land help to explain the migration of his sons from SC in the 1820's. The young men would have felt acrimony and would have had money in their pockets. Nathan, Benjamin, William and Redden moved to SOUTH GEORGIA. (Redden later would move to ALABAMA). Noel moved to MISSISSIPPI. Stephen went to ALABAMA. The Barwick name was thus spread over at least those states.
