Abt 1775 Moved to Turkey Creek in the Camden Crown District of the New
Acquisition in South Carolina
Military 8 FEB 1779 South Carolina
ABT 1782 moved to Broadway Creek,Pendleton District,South Carolina WILL: 2 SEP 1819, Pendleton District,South CarolinaFrom Wm. Joiner:
(All of the documents pertaining to Robert LOVE, Sr.'s death and estate
settlement are on file in the South Carolina Department of Archives and History, Columbia, South Carolina: #302 Anderson County Estate Papers, Roll 142, C119--Robert Dowdle.)
Robert DODLE, Sr. entered the Revolutionary War as a member of the South
Carolina Militia. The British seized Savannah on 29 Dec 1778 and in early
Hanuary of 1779 they began advancing up the Savannah River toward Augusta.
Robert DOWDLE Sr., enlisted on 8 Feb 1779; his brother James DOWDLE enlisted on 15 Feb 1779. Robert DOWDLE, Sr., served as a Quarter Master's Sergeant in a "troop of horse" under a Major ROSS. from 8 Feb 1779 until 9 May 1779. James DOWDLE served in the same unit, under a Captain KIRKPATRICK.
Both Robert DOWDLE, Sr. and James DOWDLE participated in the Battle of Briar Creek in Georgia, which occurred on or about 3 Mar 1779. The farmer-soldiers couldn't compete with the highly trained professional British Army. The battle was a comlete rout with Robert and James' unit suffering very heavy casualties and the loss of many horses and much equipment. Robert later received reimbursement for his equipment; James received reimbursemnt for his horse, bridle and saddle. James terminated his period of service on 2 Apr 1779; Robert terminated his on 9 May 1779.
Robert and James again responded to the call for volunteers and served for 40 days in July and Augsut of 1779. Both Robert and James served under General SUMTER and were again the victims of a sound defeat, in August 1780, at the hands of the British at the Battle of Fishing Creek in South Carolina. Robert and James again lost equipment for which they were reimbursed at a later date.
Robert DOWDLE, Sr. later served as a Lieutenant for a period of 30 days.From Wm. Joiner:
Ann Dowdle LOVE is not mentioned in the will of her father, Robert DOWDLE,
Sr., nor are her sisters, Rebecca Dowdle LOVE and Jane Dowdle MIDDLETON;
however, all three sisters are mentioned in the estate papers of Robert DOWDLE, Sr.From Wm. Joiner:
Robert DOWDLE, Sr., sold his land on Turkey Creek in the Camden Crown District of The New Acquisition on 17 July of 1781, prior to moving to Pendleton County of the Ninety-Six Judicial District of South Carolina.
Robert DOWDLE, Sr. and his family moved from the Turkey Creek Community in the Camden Crown District of The New Acquisition in South Carolina shortly after 1781 to Pendleton County of the Ninety-Six District in South CArolina. Robert DOWDLE could have moved into this wild, unsettled area by late 1781 or early 1782, for he was listed as a "squatter" in pre-1784 land records of that region.

From Wm. Joiner:
It is known that Robert DOWDLE's first wife was named Jane. Circumstantial
evidence indicates that she was a CLEMENS; however there has been no
documentation of that fact.
