Livingston ladies loved Newberry

We’ve made it back to Mississippi now, but goodness did we love Newberry! For years, my sister Lee Anne and I have wanted to travel to Newberry, South Carolina, where we knew that our Livingston ancestors had originated. All of our older family members have passed on now, but we used to hear stories of how our family began when one of our ancestors made his way to Smith County, Mississippi, from Newberry. My paternal aunt, Eva Grace Livingston Noblin, was even a member of the Old Newberry Genealogical Society. Her meticulous papers helped us on this trip. We knew there was an actual Livingston Family Cemetery, but we had no idea just how many Livingstons we’d see in various cemeteries around the county.
