Situation, Boundaries, and Extent

Marlborough forms the extreme northeast corner of
the state, and lies mostly within the alluvial region; only
a small angle (the northwest) dipping into the granite, or
primitive formation. This district is bounded on the southwest
by the Great Pedee river, which separates it from Darlington,
as high up as Pouncey's ferry, and from Chesterfield, as high
up as the North Carolina line, about 12 chains above Parker's
ferry; on the north by a line drawn in 1764, through the last
mentioned point, directly east and west 14-1/2 miles to a light
wood post, which divides it from North Carolina; on the
northeast by a line drawn from the said light wood post, (which
marks the northeast corner of the state, being part of the line
run in 1764, dividing South and North Carolina,) S. 48,
E. 17-3/4 miles, to a dead pine; and on the southeast by Marion
district, from which it is separated by a line drawn from the
aforesaid dead pine S. 22-1/2, W. 24-3/4 miles, or until it
intersects the Pedee river.

_____________

From Gregg's "History of the Old Cheraws":
"In May, 1751, Anthony Pouncey obtained a grant for land in the Welch [sic] Tract. He petitioned for and obtained a grant for 800 acres on the Wateree, April 6th, 1749, where he probably settled first. In this petition he stated that he had a wife, six children, and eight slaves. The name of William Pouncey appears about the same time. The former was probably the father of William and Roger."
