From the cousins' book From Whence we Came: Our Thomas McCrary was born in Ireland of Scots-Irish parents. There are no known confirmed records of his parents, the date of his birth nor any details of his life in Erin. He arrived in American about 1750, this according to tradition and not a known fact. There were ports of entry in Baltimore and Philadelphia and many immigrants from Northern Ireland arrived at either one of these places. Tradition tells us he came with his brothers, Andrew, John and Robert. According to cousins who have researched the family, there is evidence (but no documentary proof) that they settled for a short time in Pennsylvanis, in the area of York (then Baltimore) Co., and in Lancaster Co. According to the researchers they were many McCrary's (of various spellings) in that area as early as 1730 through 1740's.
"Surviving Early Records of York Count, Pennsylvania, 1749-84", in the South Central Genealogical Society, contains an entry (#70), which lists Andrew, John, Robert and Thomas McCrary. But is this our Thomas? Some researchers believe their parents were John and Martha McCrary who lived in Berkeley Co. now Laurens Co., SC, in the Duncan Creek area at the same time as the four brothers. The McCrarys arrived in this area circa 1752-1755.
THOMAS McCRARY married LETITIA BRANDON, born about 1737, died 1796/1797.
"Thomas McCrary Senior was born about 1737. It is believed that he was born in Ireland and emigrated with his brothers around 1750 to Pennsylvania and from there settled in Duncan's Creek. He married Letitia Brandon, known as Lettie, the daughter of George Brandon and sister of Colonel Thomas Brandon who fought at Ramseur's Mill, Musgrove Mill, Blackstock, Cowpens, and King's Mountain. Col. Brandon's outstanding leadership won him the rank of General by the end of the war. The Brandon family came from Pennsylvania to Duncan's Creek. Thomas McCrary, Sr., was an openly avowed enemy to the British crown during the Revolutionary War." [source: From Jamestown to Texas: A History of Some Early Pioneers of Austin County ...

The Duncan Creek Presbyterian Church's cemetery is located 5 miles east of Clinton near Newberry line in Laurens County, South Carolina. This church was organized in 1764. The following ancestors served in the Revolutionary War and their names are listed on a marble tablet placed by the DARs on the front inside wall of Duncan Creek Presbyterian Church: Joseph Adair, Sr., Joseph Adair, Jr., Thomas McCrary.
Thomas died around 1793 and is buried in the Duncan's Creek Presbyterian Church Cemetery. It is in the back left of the cemetery near a tree. The headstone has no dates, but reads "SC Troop - Rev. War"
