The following comes from a letter written in 1940 by Amos Tims great-granddaughter:
"He had evidently become something of a legendary figure to his family in later years, Mrs. Owens writes that he was proud of his "noble blood and aristocratic family," she said she had seen pictures of him. "He was always standing reared back, his sandals had big buckles on them and his stockings reached to the knee. His long knee breeches, long-tailed coat, ruffled shirt bosom and his English haircut, long and curled up at the ends."
He married Mary Cabeen 5 Feb 1807 in Chester, South Carolina. This union had 9 children:
*Amos Tims
*Margaret Tims
*Daniel Tims
*Ellenor Tims
*Alexander Tims
*Juliet Tims
