"During the years 1770-1775, as it now appears, a Scotch-Irish family by the name of Hutchinson emigrated from Northern Ireland to America and settled in what is now Laurens County, South Carolina. Its members consisted of William Huthcinson and his wife (whose name is unknown) and their seven children, namely Mary, Elizabeth, Margaret, Robert, William, John, and James. ... The greater part of the history is devoted to that branch of the family founded by the immigrant James Hutchinson."--Pref. William Hutchinson was born " ... in Northern Ireland, probably about the year 1725. ... likely in County Antrim, near Belfast."--P. 1. He " ... died October 19, 1804, and was buried, presumably beside his wife ... in the Hutchinson Family Cemetery, located near Rocky Springs Presbyterian Church, Laurens County, South Carolina."--P. 5. His son "James Hutchinson was born, it is said in Northern Ireland, March 5, 1773. ... James married , probably about 1802, Mary Simpson who was born, it appears near Belfast, Laurens County, South Carolina. She was the eldest child of Alexander and Elizabeth (Barre) Simpson ... who emigrated from County Antrim, North Ireland, to America and settled in Laurens County, probably in the early 1770's. ...
