Heniford Connections

John Heniford was the son of Moses Harrelson and Civil Boyd Suggs Cannon. From different marriages, there are several half siblings of John Heniford. These siblings signatures appear in the land grants of Moses Harrelson when the land was deeded over to the Heniford family, as well as Moses other children by his wife Ann. It appears that most of the names in the land transfers were kin. The following family narratives show the connections.

Background of Moses Harrelson

Moses Harrelson was a wealthy plantation owner in the "Pleasant Meadow" area in what is now Loris, Horry County, SC. Moses land is shown on the neighborhood plat map from the early 1800's. Much of these lands were grants from King George II and King George III. These grants have been handed down through families for generations and some still remain in descendant's hands today.

These pioneers came from several different countries. Moses Harrelson's family came from Denmark by way of Holland to New Kent County, VA. Moses great great grandfather, Paul Harrelson Sr. brought emigrants from Denmark and Holland to the Colonies in New Kent County, VA. He decided to stay and became naturalized in the early 1700's. Paul Harrelson Sr. was a crusty old sea captain and noted as a cleaver sort of short man with a twinkle in his hazel eyes and who liked a bit of a joke now and then.

Moses was the son of Josiah L. Harrelson and Mary Vick. His grandfather was Joseph Harrelson who married Su Song (Su-San- (Ni). From family oral tradition, Moses grandmother was a beautiful Indian Princess of the Cheraw Indian Tribe.

End Notes

My father was Homer Hamilton Harrelson Sr., the son of Doc D. Harrelson and Ava Jane Graham. We lived in Loris, S.C. as neighbors and very good friends of the Heniford families.

As a child I remember hearing there was a connection between my Harrelson family and the Heniford family. In all my research and oral tradition, I am convinced that the first Heniford (John) was the son of Moses Harrelson and Civil Boyd Suggs Cannon.
