!COURT:21 Mar 1840 Marion Dist., SC Judgment Roll # 4344 concerning Robert Hussey's race, whether he has to pay special tax or not:
Robert Hussay vs. the State. "We find that the relator is a free mulatto." (from jury).
Says he is a free white ... not a negro or mustezo but a free white. His great grandmother was a free white woman named Rachael Smith of Irish descent of Halifax Co., NC. She died leaving a female child named Patience Turner. Around the American Revolution Patience Turner removed to Marion Dist., SC. She has since died leaving several children including Mildred Turner who married Samuel Hussey a free white man of English descent. They are parents of Robert Hussey, your petitioner.
Sarah Martin was a daughter of Penny Turner a daughter of Patience Turner; who married John Martin.
I've been recognized as a white, been on patrol duty, muster duty, maintained good character... and has voted without denial of rights until Octobert last. Wit: Ed. B. Wheeler, John Blackman, John Ward, Henry Berry, Hugh Godbold, Alexander L. Gregg, H. G. Fladger, Moses Mace, Barfield Moody, Isham Watson and Joel Fore;
