Below you will find a book on the Ford family of Chester County, SC and their relatives and descendents. I typed it in from a copy of the hand-written document. I tried to leave it as it was originally written.
Antecedents of the Family of Robert Ford and their Lateral Relatives so far as now known with some Military Record of himself and sons L. M. Ford
August 5, 1904 This was written for Mrs. H. M. Stevenson, daughter of Robert Ford.
(Note from BLHamrick: The information on Nathaniel, Sr. is in the Notes section for him. The information on Nathaniel, Sr.'s other children are in their respective Notes sections. For a complete, unadulterated copy of this transcript, see Message Number 2526 on the FORD GenForum.)

South Carolina in 1840 and no mention was of children. This Gardner Ford had a sister, Janie, who married a Middleton. One of her sons, Austin Peay Middleton, was clothed and sent to school by Col. A.F. Peay. This boy came out to S.C. and returned to Mississippi with Gardner Ford and his wife. Elsie Ford married James Yongue a widower, near Blackstock, S.C. and bore to him Osmorne, William Belton, Martha Ann, and Mary Acina. Osmorne married Jane Lemon, and died in the 50's without issue. William Belton studied medicine and became an M.D. He died in 1855 unmarried. Martha Ann married Dr. Green Berry Colvin. They both died without issue. Mary Acina married Jonathan Pratt and bore to him William, Jefferson, Alice, and Bartlett who died in infancy. After the death of Pratt, his widow married Charles B. Watt, both went to Texas about 1866. Elsie Yongue died
