Mercury Publishing Company, Mardian, Miss. 1885 Reprinted by Robert Henry Teer, Jr. August 1981 http://www.usgwarchives.net/al/montgomery/photos/documents/sketches1682nph.jpg Image file size: 381.2 Kb From page 129: "MORDICAI BOZEMAN - 1735 - DARLINGTON CO., SOUTH CAROLINA. A native of North Carolina, born about 1735. His sons were:" Page 130-131 "1. Peter, born about 1758, a soldier in the Revolution on the side of the American independence. Moved to Alabama. 2. John, born about 1760, soldier in the Revolution with his brother. 3. James, born about 1766, lived in Darlington County, South Carolina; married Elizabeth Flowers. CHILDREN OF JAMES & ELIZABETH FLOWERS BOZEMAN: a) Henry, born about 1800; married Elizabeth Norwood, lived in Darlington district SC; died in 1874. Children of Henry and ELizabeth Norwood Bozeman are: Henry Jr. born in 1833, married Martha Flowers in 1852; lived in Darlington, died in 1866, a carpenter by trade; had five children: Edwin born 1856, a farmer. Zach, Norwood born 1858; farmer. Rowena Bozeman, born 1860. John Henry, born 1862; farmer. James Brunson Bozeman, born 1864; student for the Baptist ministry in Furman University, S. C., in 1883; one of my correspondents. (b) Jesse Bozeman, son of James and Elizabeth Flowers Bozeman, and grandson of Mordicai Bozeman, born in 1802, married a Miss Beck, and lives at this date, 1884, in Darlington county, S. C. The three children of Jesse Bozeman were: William Bozeman, born about 1825, killed in the Confederate war; Peter Bozeman, born about 1827, killed in the Confederate war; George Washington Bozeman, born about 1830, lives in South Carolina. The above is all I have learned about the Mordicai Bozemans, of Darlington, South Carolina. I should think from the names, Peter and Jesse, that they are the same branch as Capt. Peter H. Bozeman, of Lauderdale County, Miss., whose ancestors lived about Cheraw, S. C., whose grandfather was named Peter Bozeman, and brother named Jesse Bozeman, and sons named Peter Edwin and Jesse James Bozeman." Additional Comments: Ten years go by before the war, so surely Mordecai had more children; in fact there is a young Jesse, living by Peter on the 1800 census, who cannot be his own son, and other children could have been born to Mordecai and his unknown wife. I have researched brother John and found him in Mississippi on several documents. Many Alabamians are researching Peter and we find that his first born son Meade appeared on the 1820 near his brother Jesse, but died soon after and Peter donated land to his sons, Jesse and Peter Henry in 1824. Peter's land was appraised in 1826 as they began the journey to Montgomery. Peter's daughter Elleanor Joiner took in the orphaned sons of her brother Meade.
