I Would like to discover the parentage of Joel and John Biggs and extend the Biggs line up from there. Any help appreciated.

Looking for Golden of South Carolina to Georgia

William Golden and his wife Nellie came from Ireland before 1790 and settled in Edgefield, South Carolina. I know of two sons, Isaac Golden and Abraham Golden. Abraham is my great-grandfather and was born in SC in 1791. He and Isaac moved to Baldwin County, Georgia before 1820. Abraham moved to Monroe County and then to Marion County, Georgia where he is found in the 1850 Census. There were several other sons and daughters. Would love to have information on these siblings and Parentage of William and Nellie; and where they came from in Ireland. Will share with others of the family.
