I have been for two years unsucessfully trying to locate my family in South Carolina. I recently found my Grandmother's mothers name. Any assistance would be deeply appreciated.
My Grandmother's name was Daisy Mae Lucky who married Nathanial Addison. Her mothers name was Clara McDonald, born around 1888.
My grandmother had two sisters that I know of - Clara and Shupie. My family was know to be in the area's of Sumpter, Bishopville, Lee County. I hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance.

I can't tell you anything about Clara but I'm also looking for relatives with the last name McDonald, my grandfather Thomas McDonald. He was born around 1886 in South Carolina. My mother told me he was from Elliott. I think that's fairly close to Sumter. Unfortunately, he didn't tell anyone his parents names and I don't know if he had any siblings. He left South Carolina for Detroit Michigan probably in the early 1900s. I found him in the 1920 census in Michigan, married to my grandmother but I can't Nanything before that especially in South Carolina with out another relative to connect him to. He named his first born daughter Christena. Not sure if he was naming her after a loved one in South Carolina. This is very fragmented information but if there are McDonalds in Lee county that may have a possible lead, I would love to hear from you.

Thanks for your inquiry. Unfortunately I have not been on this websiite for a couple of years since my search has come to a pause. Clara McDonald is where my search has stopped. I haven't been able to go beyond her as of yet. Clara is my great grand mother, the mother of my moms mother, whose name was Daisy Mae McDonald (her marriage name was Lucky). My name is Lorenzo, heres my email if you happen to find anything further, or just want to communicate: Cahsene7@Yahoo.com. Thanks again, take care.

Are any of these names familiar to you? Harvey McDonald, Carolyn McDonald, Alfred McDonald, Craig McDonald, and many more to name. All are originally from Lee County, S.C. within the same vicinities that you indicated (Sumter, Lynchburg, Bishopville, Timmonsville, etc.).
