FRENCH HUGEUNOT
The Avant family ancestors were originally from France and came to America during the early 1700s as Huguenot refugees. Later descendants became quite influential in Covington County during the last century or so.
One Francis Avant, who was born circa 1670 in Chantilly, Ile de France, France, died in 1724 in Black River Craven County, S.C. Thus, he was the ancestor to bring this family to the new colonies. He was married to Mary who was born in 1670 in France as well. They had at least the following four children who were all born most likely before the family left France: John, b. 1690, d. 1748, m. Ann ?; Caleb, b. 1700, d. 1743; Francis, b. 1706, d. 1742; and Benjamin, b. 1708, d. 1743.
Very little is known about three of the above sons, but there is considerable documentation on the life of Caleb Avant. He was born circa 1700 in Chantilly, Ile de France, and was married in 1726 to Mary Lewis who was born circa 1708 in Prince Frederick Parish, Craven, S.C. Caleb and Mary were among those who settled along the Black River at a site known as Winyah. This was the first part of the present county of Williamsburg, S.C., to be settled by white people.

ecil- February 13 - Mr. West Rountree, the oldest settler of Lowndes county, died suddenly at his home on Little River yesterday evening at 3 o'clock. I learned that he had gone out to the woodpile for some wood and fell dead while getting it.
Mr. Rountree was born in Burke county, in 1814, and came to Telfair county with his father when a child. His father, James Rountree, moved to Lowndes, the second settler, (Joe and John Bryant being the first) in 1823, and settled on the place where West Rountree, with his brother, James lived.
Mr. West Rountree settled in the yard where he died in 1837, and in 1844, March 6, was married to Miss Edith Folsom, who still survives him. He left five sons and one daughter - Messrs. James W., George F., Noel L., William F., and Hardy V. Roundree and Mrs. Elizabeth Joyce.
Although he never held any office above road commissioner, yet there was no man in this section of the state more widely known or more esteemed as a citizen. He was of that school of gentlemen whom it was not necessary to swear to get the truth, or to take his note for a debt.
Truly, one of the best citizens of Lowndes county has gone, and left a monument in the hearts of her people.- Boremian.
