Thanks for responding:

I have already tried that. I called every funeral home in Lancaster County, SC. None of these funeral homes have any record in their archives of a Will Witherspoon. I even went to the church where he is buried. I was told by the deacons that they did not keep any records before 1950. I am at a brick Wall. All of the older families members who may have known are deceased.

Thanks.
Sheila
