CHARLESTON COUNTY, SOUTH CAROLINA - OBITS - Colzy, Louis Charlemagne - 1819 ************************************************ Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm http://www.usgwarchives.net/sc/scfiles.htm ************************************************ Contributed for use in SCGenWeb Archives by: Kellie Crnkovich markkell95@aol.com September 27, 2005 The CIty Gazette, May 8, 1799 Abstracted information from Obituary According to a notice in the City Gazette on June 26, 1819, friends and acquaintances were invited to attend the funeral of "Charles Colzy." According to that same notice, he was a resident of 48 Church St. The interment records of St. Mary's Catholic Church recorded his name as Charlemain Colzy. The church records listed his age at the time of his death as 49 and reported that he was a native of Lyons, France. (So his first name was probably Louis and not Lewis; the newspaper back then was pretty loose on spellings.) His will had been written on June 24, 1819, leaving his estate to this wife for the duration of her life and then to the couple's children. The will was admitted on June 30, 1819.
