Biographical History
Robert Heriot (1739-1792) was a native of Dirleton, Scotland, who immigrated to South Carolina in 1759. He served in two expeditions against the Cherokees in 1759 and 1761. He married Mary "Polly" Ouldfield, the only daughter of John Ouldfield and Anne LaRoche, and settled in Georgetown, S.C., where he became a merchant and planter. Supporting the colonial cause in the American Revolution, he was commissioned a captain on April 29 1776 and commanded a light infantry company.
