Swygerts/Lytes/Ponds from Lexington County.

Classification: Query
I am looking for the family of Ida Swygert. Her father was Hannibal. The family lived in Lexington County, Gilbert Hollow before moving to Conway County, Arkansas. Ida married George Ponds the son of Mark and Frances Lytes Ponds after they moved to Arkansas. Mark and Frances don't exist in any records except the 1880 census that I can find. The marriage license for Ida spells the name Swaggers, and it also appears as Swaggert and Swygert. Hannibal was in Arkansas in 1900.

My great-grandfather said the Ponds family was tri-racial. I don't know about the Swagerts. The Arkansas branch of the Swygert/Lytes/Ponds/Thornton families will hold host a family reunion in Arkansas in 2008 and they are trying to find all relatives to add to their genealogy and reunion roster.

One of the Davis/Lafayette researchers said that all of them came from Batesburg/Leesville.

Any information appreciated.
