Life History

Notes

• 1860 Federal Census, Cleveland County, North Carolina, 13 August, page 131 (scan 382), Hse/Fam #939
  George McSwain 24 M Farmer $184 Personal b NC (b abt 1836)
  Hannah McSwain 19 F NC (b abt 1841)
  Pinkney McSwain 9mos M NC (b abt Oct 1859)
  
  The Hamrick Data Pages lists a son of George and Hannah named George Pinkney.  This woudl seem to match the chiold enumerated in 1860 as Pinkney.  Hamrick, howver, has an estimated birthday several years off from the age in the census.  Given no other indications, I will take this as the same individual and list this child as George Pinkney.  Hamrick does not report a spouse.
  
  McSwain, George Pinkney (*1865 - )
  father: McSwain, George Washington (1836 - 1864)
  mother: Hamrick, Hannah (~1841 - )
