| Peter (Pierre)
Chastain Jr. (pg ) (page 15 of Little Otter) (son by Ann Soblet,
referred to as Peter Junior) b circa 1707 d aft 1775 VA, on tithe
lists of King William
| Parish
through 1731. On 1 Dec 1740 patented land in
Goochland Co soon to become part of Albemarle Co then Buckingham County.
Appears on tithe lists in
| Buckingham County in 1773 but not 1774, some
thinking he went to South Carolina about 1775. Date and place of death are
uncertain. Not named in census of 1790 in South Carolina.

13 Aug 1747 Albemarle Co County levy Wm Allen, Peter Shasteen & Ben
Witt
| m probably Mildred "Middy"
Archer in the 1730's, reported to have been born about 1709.

children may have been born in Queen Ann Parish (Is this St. Annes
Parish?) in Albemarle Co however
records are not in existence.

REF | REFERENCE WORK: "Little Otter
to Lost River" by Claude E. Cook. Much of the following is in this book
starting on page 39.
Pendleton District is a former judicial district in South Carolina.
It existed as a county or a district from 7 March 1789 to 20 December 1826.
In the colonial period, the land around the coast was divided into parishes
corresponding to the parishes of the Church of England. There were also
several counties that had judicial and electoral functions. As people
settled the backcountry, judicial districts and additional counties were
formed. This structure continued and grew after the Revolutionary War. In
1800, all counties were renamed as districts. In 1868, the districts were
converted back to counties.[1] The South Carolina Department of Archives and
History has maps that show the boundaries of counties, districts, and
parishes starting in 1682.[2] Pendleton County was created on 7 March 1789
in the former Indian lands. It included the current Anderson and Pickens
counties and all but about 70 square miles (180 km2) along the Chattooga
River of Oconee County. The land along the Chattooga belonged the Cherokee
and Creek peoples. Pendleton County was attached to Abbeville.
On 19 February 1791, Pendleton County became part of the new Washington
District, which also included most of Greenville County. On 1 January 1800,
Washington District was disbanded. Pendleton County and Greenville County
were renamed as districts.
On 19 December 1816, Pendleton District gained the Indian lands along the
Chattooga. Finally, on 20 December 1826, the Pendleton District was
abolished and replaced by Anderson and Pickens Districts. Pickens District
incorporated both the current Pickens and Oconee Counties.[3] The court
house and jail for Pendleton District were in Pendleton, South Carolina. As
the time of the dissolution of the district, its second court house was
under construction. This was completed by the Pendleton Farmers' Society. It
is still standing in on the Pendleton Square and is part of the Pendleton
Historic District.[4]
TO DO: In the book "Little
Otter to Lost River", many references are made in the section on
William Chastain and George Shasteen to the spelling of the last name in the
records of Franklin Co., and Henry Co. (from Pittsylvania Co., which was
from Halifax Co., which was from Lunenberg Co.) in a variety of ways -
Shateen, Shatteen, Shasteen and Shashteen. These records should be looked at
closely for descendants of my line as George from William is not certain,
but more importantly, William from Peter (second
son of Pierre Chastain) is very uncertain.(??) Additionally, the
children listed for William are probable, which leaves open the possibility
that there were other Shasteens in the area to which some of these children
belong, and their movements are not in all cases firmed up, leaving the
possibility that one of them could be in my line. |
