| MACLIN - My mother was
a Maclin. They settled in MS from VA in mid 1800's I believe they come from
Greensville county. census's show them as from Benjamin Maclin and Elizabeth
B. of Greenville Co. I found a marriage of the two? in Greenville Co in 1810.
They were in the census till after 1830. I need to confirm that it is them.
would like land deeds and any info. I would like more info about the Nat
Turner riot of 1831 in neighboring Co. B Maclin was a slave owner and the
riot may have influenced the move. Is there a list of the people killed in
