Reverend John Renwick
was apparently born of a very religious family that had been
very involved at one time in the religious wars of Scotland.
His relative was James Renwick
the last covenanter leader martyr of Scotland. Due to
this fact the Renwick families along with many other
supporters were forced out of Scotland, some were put onto
ships and exiled to the colonies. Others took refuge in
northern Ireland, as ours relatives were said to have done
according to the family history written below. There are still
a number of Renwick (pronounced "Renick" by the Irish) in
areas of Belfast. They are probably still the protestant
"Orange Men" that the Irish Catholics have long fought
against.
There was a John
Renwick, "convenanter" that was exiled out of Scotland for the
colonies as early as 1684, which is four years before James Renwick was to have
been martyred. Our particular relative was not supposed to
have come to the colonies until 1767, or roughly a hundred
years later. He apparently had a congregation in Antrim before
coming to South Carolina and brought part of his congregation
in 1767. He made a trip again in 1770 when he brought
another group including his wife who gave birth to their son,
John Renwick Jr. on ship board. John Renwick did come to
carry on the mission of the Presbyterians by establishing
several churches in Newberry County, South Carolina. He worked
as an itinerant preacher in the Cannon's Creek and
King's Creek Churches. His son, John Renwick Jr., who follows his father's
work, marries Jane Bothwell. The Bothwell family was also very
prominent in the Scottish history around the time of the
Convenanter Raising.
More on the Convenanters of Scotland
This tribute to John
Renwick was given in Newberry County, South Carolina in a 1988
article in the Newberry County newspaper.
"Born in Ireland of
Scottish Ancestry. Family of James Renwick, last Covenanter
martyr of Scotland, 1688. Brought his Anti-Burgher
congregation from County Antrim, Ireland to Newberry County,
South Carolina in 1767-1770. founder of King's Creek and
Cannon's Creek Churches. Elizabeth, his wife, buried beside
him.
The Reverend Timothy Hood, Pastor of Quail Hollow Presbyterian
Church, Charlotte, N. C., presided over the service. In his
introductory remarks, "Why Gather," he stated the purpose of
the dedication.
The Reverend
Robert Carlisle, Pastor of Startex United Methodist Church,
Startex. S. C., offered prayer.
Mr. Renwick
Bradley of Savannah, Georgia, delivered an address
"Concerning James Renwick." He stated that it was most
appropriate to gather here in this 300th anniversary year of
the death of James Renwick, the last of the covenanter martyrs of Scotland,
for it was on February 17, 1688 that the 26 year old Renwick
"glorified God in the Grassmarket of Edinburgh by there
laying down his life for Christ's Crown and Covenant.'
Mr. Dan Titus of
Atlanta in colorful regimental Highland uniform, played
"Foures of the Forest" on the bagpipes, setting the Scottish
tone for the service. The main address, "Great Is Thy
Faithfulness-- A Tribute to John and Elizabeth Rewick", was
presented by Dr. Charles H. Carlisle, Vice President of
Business Administration, Erskine College, Due West, S. C.,
who is a great-great-great-grandson of Reverend John Renwick
Sr.
... of Renwick's
congregation arrived in the same community. The first
Communion service held for the congregation in America was
in Patrick Carmichael's barn near Boyd's Crossing between
Newberry and Prosperity.
John Renwick, Sr.
was an Anti-Burgher pastor. In Scotland and Ireland this was
of great importance. An Anti-Burgher was one who believed it
was wrong for any of their number to swear the oath of
office to become a Burgher ( that is a town councilman) if
that oath had a religious clause in it. In America, this was
not so important and soon the Presbytery that was formed had
both Burgher and Anti-Burgher pastors. Dr. Thomas Clark of
Cedar Springs was a Burgher pastor.
According to the
A. R. P. Centennial History, John Renwick, Sr. died August
20, 1775 at the age ...
...that her
(Elizabeth Renwick) estate shows that she owned four Negro
slaves means that she had accumulated some financial assets.
She willed one slave to Agnes, one to John and one to
William. She also gave each one a good feather bed which
shows the value of feather beds. Why the second daughter,
Anne, didn't get a slave or a feather bed and makes one
think that she was well provided for by her husband.
Elizabeth had cows, calves, hogs, horses, sheep, and
household goods.
There were four
children of John and Elizabeth Renwick. The oldest was Agnes
(sometimes called Nancy) born in Ireland in 1768. She
married and had a daughter named Leah. I do not know her
husband's name. Her daughter married John Machen of
Greenville, S. C. and the family moved to Alabama. "
["Memorial Marker Dedicated At Cannon's
Creek Cemetery", Newberry S. C. Newspaper, Friday, June
24, 1988, ]
1763-1775 - The
Annals of Newberry give a history of the churches in Newberry
along with the important ministers.
"From the years 1763 to 1775 the elements of
Cannon's Creek and King's Creek Churches, from which grew
Prosperity and Head Spring, came from County Antrim, Ireland,
and settled in the fertile region between Enoree and the Dutch
Fork, centering near the creeks from which the churches took
their names. In the year 1767 a portion of Rev. John
Renwick's congregation came from Ireland and settled in
Newberry County. In 1770, a larger portion, with their
pastor, came over and settled near the others; and in 1772
there came a third colony. We thus see that the first
Associate Reformed preacher and pastor of the churches in
Newberry was the Rev. John
Renwick, was born at sea on the passage over,
December 31st, 1770. The Lord's Supper was first administered
to these Christians in Newberry, in Patrick Carmichael's barn,
near what is now known as Boyd's Crossing between Newberry and
Prosperity. This Rev. John Renwick is believed to have been a
descendant of the family of Rev. James Renwick, the last
martyr of Scotland, who suffered February 18th, 1688.
Rev. James Renwick
preached at Cannon's Creek and King's Creek Churches, which
were founded at the same time, in 1772. He died August
20th, 1775. After his death there was little preaching, owing
to the troublous times, until the year 1790. In that
year, or the year before, the Revs. David Bothwell and James
Rogers arrived, and they were also present at that time Revs.
Thomas Clark, Peter McMullen and John Boyce, ministers, with
James McBryde and William Dunlap, elders.
Mr. Rogers became
pastor of Cannon's and King's Creek Churches on the 23d of
February, 1791, and served in that capacity for twenty-four or
twenty-five years; for though the pastoral relation had been
formally dissolved in 1801, yet they having no settled pastor,
he continued to serve them in so far as he was able, until the
year 1814.
In 1802 Prosperity
Church was built and the congregation organized, with Abram
Carmichael and Abram Youn, elders.
Rev. John Renwick, son of the
first pastor, and who, as has been already mentioned,
was born at sea, December 31st, 1770, was licensed to preach
January 1st, 1807 -- missionated two and a half years and
settled at Gilder's Creek-- was five years pastor and
continued to preach there and elsewhere as long as he was
able, until he was superannuated a few years before his death,
which occorred about the close of the year 1836. " [O'Neall.
part II, p674-5]
1770 - 80 - John Renwick was a Covenanter and an Associate
minister at the Canon Creek, Head Spring and Prosperty churches
in Newberry Dist. of South Carolina about 1770-1780.
[Hanna p. 130]
1770 - John Renwick is listed as minister of the Presbyterian
Churches on a ship to South Carolina. One researcher
indicates that he is bringing with him a number of parishsoners
to settle in South Carolina area of Newberry from Antrim,
Ireland. page 67 [Marshall page 67]
"During this
period (1763 -1775) the original elements of what has been long
known as Cannon and King’s Creek Churches, out of which
Prosperity and Head Springs subsequently sprang, came from the
vicinity of Ahoghill and Randallstown, County Antrim, Ireland,
and settled in this fertile section of country lying between
Enoree and what I’ve familiarly known as the Dutch Fork, and
centering near the creeks from which these churches took their
names. From information furnished me by your committee appointed
for the purpose of collecting facts and forwarding them to the
speakers on this occasion and William Renwick, Esq., it appears
that a portion of Rev. John Renwick's congregation came to
America and settled in Newberry County in 1767. In 1770 a larger
portion of the same congregation, with their pastor, came and
settled in the vicinity of those who had proceeded them. And in
1772 a third colony. This date has been satisfactorily and
unmistakably determined; for a letter from Rev. T. Thompson of
North Ireland, regarded quite an antiquity, and now in the
possession of Mr. William Renwick after giving some account of
the former life and labors of this pioneer minister of the
Gospel (to which we shall again refer) says of his removal “that
when there was much going to America, he removed there about or
after 1770.” [Rev. Sloan]
1775, Aug 20th - Rev. John Renwick
dies in Newberry Co., South Carolina. He is buried in the
Cannon's Creek Old Cemetery, Newberry County. The photo of the
stone is from the Newberry Genealogy Trails. The cemetery was surveyed and photographed by Donna
Brummett. I have not been able to contact her for permission
to use her photo, but thanks in advance.

-
The Bothwell family come over later than the Renwicks.
This family is still under study but David Bothwell is
found to be a minister of the Cedar Springs Associate Reformed
Presbyterian Church in Abbeville Co., South Carolina in 1790. He
could be a brother to John Renwick Jr.'s wife Jane Wright
Bothwell. The church had five hundred members by
1802. [Seller, Hazel Crowson. p. 111]

"On this
site stood the first log structure called the "Old Irish
Church." this congregation of Scotch-Irish Seceders from County
Antrim, Ireland was organized who followed Renwick to South
Carolina in 1767, 1770, & 1772, is interwoven with the
turbulent years of the Revolution. Renwick served both Kings's
Creek and Cannon's Creek A. R. P. Churches, until his death, in
1775. (He was buried at Cannon's Creek churchyard.) About 1790
rev. David Bothwell, and probationer James Rogers came from
Scotland to the churches, and Rogers succeeded to the pastorate,
until 1814." [Renwick, Robert M., History of King's Creek A. R. P. Church,

A memorial stone has
been erected by his relatives at the Cannon Creek Cem. with
this inscription.
"Rev. John Renwick,

James Renwick, last Covenanter martyr of Scotland, 1688.
Brought his Anti-Burgher congregation from County Antrim,

1800 -
David Bothwell was assigned a ministry at the Cedar Springs Church
in Abbeville. He was also minister of Buckhead and Big Creek along
with churches in Jefferson and Burke Counties in Georgia. He
died in 1801 and John Renwick Jr. apparently marries his widow, Mary
Wight Bothwell. She is buried at the Kings Creek Church
cemetery. David Bothwell 's parents were David and Margaret
Bothwell. He was educated at University of Edinburgh where he
studied divinity then moved to Mohanagan, Ireland from which he
emigrated to Georgia. [Rev. H. T. Sloan p. 64]
New information from the
University of Glasgow states that David Bothwell was a native of
Ireland and had gone to Glasgow for his divinity
education.
1807, January 1 - "Rev. John Renwick, Jr., son of the
first pastor, born at sea, as already mentioned, December 31,
1770, was licensed to preach January 1st, 1807,
missionated for two and a half years, then settled at Gilder's
Creek in Laurens Co. as its pastor for five years and continued to
preach there and elsewhere as long as he was able, until he was
superannuated a few years before his death, about the year 1836."
[Brown, W. C. A Short Sketch of
the Cannon's Creek Church]
According to David Bothewell, "Present day knowledge indicates
that the Rev. Dr. David E. Bothwell was the son of David and
Margaret Bothwell who were tenant farmers in Monaghan Co.,
Ireland. He went to Scotland to study (_NOT_
Edinburgh, but Glasgow - see copy of email
following) but was not _OF_ Scotland. We know
that the Bothwell's originated in Scotland and went to
Ireland at some point during, or immediately
thereafter, the "Plantation" period - but we do _NOT_
know precisely when. Nor do we know much about his
parents or siblings. However, we do know that a
younger brother, Samuel C. Bothwell and his family at the
time (several sons at the very least) appear to have
emigrated to Georgia about five years after the Reverend
(abt 1794)." [correspondence from David Bothwell, May
31, 2010]
1812- John Renwick, Jr is a minister for Warrior's
Creek(now Bethel) until November 11th, 1825 and Gilder's Creek
until March 1st, 1814 when it was dissolved. [Sloan p. 334

1865- A description is written of Dr. James A. Renwick, physician of
Newberry in 1895.
"Dr. James A. Renwick, a descendant
of the old Scotch Covenanters, than whom the world never produced
a braver or more liberty-loving race, after a not very long but
useful career as a physician and a man, died on the 13th of March
1865. He was a brother of Col. John S. Renwick, and like
him, a consistent member of the Church of his fathers. "
[John Belton O'Neall, The
Annals of Newberry, p. 833]
Colonel John
S. Renwick p.605
"This very excellent man, a native of
Newberry County, and who spent his long life as one of its
citizens, was of Scotch descent, and a not very remote
descendant of James Renwick, the last Scotch martyr. He
became a member of King's Creek Church in early manhood and
remained in connection with it until the day of his death.
The circumstances of his early life prevented him from acquiring
a first-rate education, but he knew its worth and gave his sons
and daughters the best that could be obtained. He was the
first to suggest to Dr. Bonner, then in charge of the Female
Academy at Due West, the propriety of converting that
institution into a Female College. He had no political
asparations, but was content to do his duty as a private
citizen, a farmer and member of the Church, in which he was a
Ruling Elder for nearly the whole of his life. This good
man died March 19th, 1889, in the 76th year of his age. " [John Belton O'Neall, The Annals of Newberry, p. 605]
1872 - p. 193 William W. Renwick was born c. 1812 and
died in 1872. He was the sone of the Reverend John S. Renwick Jr.
(1770-1836) of the Kings Creek A. R. P. Church area of Newberry
County and the grandson of the Irish pioneer to this country
(1735-1775). Renwick married Rosannah P. Rogers (19 January 1812-
4 January 1850), daughter of John A. Rogers Jr. (1764-1847) and
Rosey M. Rogers (1778-1841) of Orange Hall plantation. They
were all members of Kings Creek Church and, like the local Reids
and Caldwells, all descended from Scots-Irish dissenting
Presbyterian emigres from County Antrim, Ireland.
