State of South Carolina, District of Beaufort
On this 21st day of April 1843 Personally appeared before me, Mrs. Susan Joyner, widow, formerly widow of John Grayson deceased, a resident of Beaufort in the District of and State aforesaid, Aged 71 years, who being first duly sworn according to law, doth on her oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the provision made by the acts of Congress passed July 7th 1838, and the 23rd of August 1842, granting pensions to widows of persons who served during the revolutionary war, that, she is the widow of John Grayson who was then Ensign and Lieutenant in Colonel Roberts’ Regiment of Artillery South Carolina line and served therein under arms as Deponent believes two years during the war of the revolution, Deponent says she can not name the places at which he served, but she has reason to believe that he served wherever of the Regiment served from the beginning of the year 1777 to the surrender of Charleston in May 1780, when he was made a prisoner of war, and so detained until he was regularly and exchanged. Deponent refers for these services to the record of the Bounty land, and Commutation pay paid him on account of said Services, and to the proof hereto annexed, She also declares that, she was married to the said John Grayson on the ninth day of October 1787 and that her husband the aforesaid John Grayson died on the __ day of September 1797. That, she was not married to him prior to his leaving the service, but the marriage took place previous to 1 January 1794, viz., at the time above stated. She further declares that after the death of her husband aforesaid, she was married to William Joyner on the __ day of September 1798 -- that he died on the 24th day of December 1834 and that she is still a widow.
Sworn to and subscribed on the day and year above written before
S/ Jno M Baker, Magistrate S/ Susan Joyner
I certify that the following record is on the Public Register of St. Helena Parish viz.
"Grayson William John, son of John and several, married by the Reverend Mr. Lewes, 9th October 1787 to Greene Susannah.”
S/ Thos. O. Barnwell, Warden
St. Helena church Beaufort
Jos. R. Walker, Rector[facts in file: William J. Grayson applied on March 17, 1826 for bounty land on account of his father’s Revolutionary war services; applied on behalf of himself and the other heirs at law (not named) of his father; he was granted 200 acres of land; Widow died March 4, 1854]
A tree at Ancestry.com has Susan's birth as 2 Dec 1790 in Beaufort, South Carolina, but if the marriage date is correct, she would have only been aged 8 years. Perhaps the year should read 1779.
In 1850, she was living with her daughter, Cornelia De Treville (nee Joyner) who married Richard De Treville. He became Lieutenant Governor of South Carolina in 1854.
On 21 April 1843, Susan applied for pensions due to her from her two deceased husbands, John William Grayson and William Joyner.

Rev. Dr. William Theophilus (Tomlinson) Brantley
Dr. W.T. Brantley was one of the first pastors of the "First Baptist Church" of Charleston, and a leading Protestant minister in America during the early 1800s. He later became a Doctor of Divinity.
Further details can be found at the Brantley Association of America
His middle name was originally Tomlinson, after his mother.
In 1817, he conducted the funeral service of William Norton at St. Helena parish church, Beaufort. It is possible that William Norton was a granfather of Dr. Brantley's 2nd wife, Margaret Joyner. Mr. Norton's sister, Elizabeth was married to a Mr. Joyner before she married Rev. William Eastwick Graham.
It is possible that Margaret's paternal grandmother was Elizabeth Norton, although this is purely speculative at present. Elizabeth was married to a Mr. Joyner before she married Rev. William Eastwick Graham.
In 1817, Margaret's husband conducted the funeral service of Elizabeth's brother, William Norton, at St. Helena parish church, Beaufort.
However, it is said that Elizabeth never had any of her own children, but did raise the children of her 2nd husband, Rev. Wm. E. Graham. The mother of these children was Sarah Fripp, daughter of John Fripp III and Elizabeth Hann.

This Biography of Richard Jr., by Edan Hughes, was found at: http://www.calart.com/Data/Artists/Richard_DeTreville.asp
RICHARD DeTREVILLE (1864-1929) Born in Beaufort, South Carolina on November 17, 1864 into a prominent, old family of French ancestry. His grandfather fought with George Washington in the Revolutionary War and at the time of his birth during the Civil War, his father was Lt Governor of South Carolina.Little is known about his art training; he was possibly self-taught. In 1892, he moved to California and settled in Stockton where he established a small newspaper called Det's Magazine. Shortly after 1910 he moved from Stockton to San Francisco where he worked as a cartoonist for the Park Presidio News. In his studio on Clement Street he exhibited his paintings as well as in local department stores and art galleries. His works were handled locally by Schussler Brothers and Sanborn & Vail. The last few years of his life were spent across the bay in Alameda where he died on February 25, 1929.
DeTreville worked in oil and, on rare occasions, in watercolor. He was known to be an excellent portraitist although his portraits are rare. The most prolific of early California painters, his thousands of small landscapes are invariably of the San Francisco Bay area, Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, and northern California. He sometimes signed his works "DeT". Member: American Art Bureau. Exhibited: White House Department Store (San Francisco), 1926 (250 oils). Works held: California Historical Society; Oakland Museum; Alameda Historical Society.
Another tree suggests that Sarah's middle name was Burton.
