  • Notes 
    • Notes from Ewing Family History:

      "Thomas was a lawyer, distinguished for his achievements as a solicitor of patents. In 1928, he published the "Military Journal of George Ewing" and a book entitled, "George Ewing, Gentleman, a solider of Valley Forge." Who's Who in America, 1916-1917, p. 776. "

      From the Town of Mount Pleasant, South Carolia: regarding Snee Farm "In 1936, Thomas Ewing purchased this plantation to be close to his daughter. The Ewings operated a truck farm business and employed local agricultural workers. His daughter was Alexandra Ewing Stone, the wife of Thomas A. Stone who built Boone Hall Plantation's current mansion (1936). Alexandra inherited her parent's plantation in 1943. Since the Stones had already sold Boone Hall Plantation, they relocated to Snee Farm Plantation. Alexandra maintained this property until she died in 1968, at which point her estate sold the plantation to Guilds and Joyce Hollowell." [2, 5]
