Biographical History
South Carolina Revolutionary War soldier, U.S. commissioner negotiating with the southern Indians, 1785-1802.
Mrs. Alice Noble Waring of Hughes, Arkansas, great-great-great granddaughter of General Andrew Pickens, collected photostatic copies of original correspondence, documents, and papers which she used in writing The Fighting Elder: Andrew Pickens, 1739-1817, published in 1962. These copies were acquired from major research libraries, including the Library of Congress, the State Historical Society of Wisconsin (Draper Collection), William L. Clement Library, the Huntington Library, Duke University, and the New York Public Library. Mrs. Waring owned some originals, and she donated the original deed of Tamassee to the South Caroliniana Library, Columbia, South Carolina.
