Candour McFadden & Descendants

*For the sake of brevity, I am only listing my direct ancestors in this particular posting.*

Candour McFadden was born sometime around the year 1710 in what is today County Antrim, Northern Ireland.  Though we don't know the exact dates, some family historians record that his wife was named Mary Guy.  Other family researchers state that Mary Guy was also born in County Antrim while others contest this.

Due to the difficulties one encounters when conducting Irish Family research for this time period, we may never know for certain the exact year in which he was born or where Mary, his wife, was born.

What we do know however is that they were the parents of my ancestor, Isaac McFadden (1753 - Dec 1820).  While it is not possible to know if Isaac was born in what was then "Ireland" or if he was born in "The Colonies" we DO know that both he and his parents died in Chester County, South Carolina.

This Isaac McFadden married Miss Mary Adams ( - 1830) and they made their home near Landsford, Chester County, South Carolina.  To them was born Julianna Susannah McFadden  (17 May 1812 - 18 September 1876)

This Julianna Susannah McFadden was the wife of David Hyatt and mother of Isaac McFadden Hyatt (Click here for more info on Isaac.) who was born 10 July 1831 in Chester County, South Carolina and died 27 February 1881, Chester County South Carolina.
