Frantz Carl "Francis" Huyet

Seeking info on Frantz Carl "Francis" Huyet/Hewitt, and his descendants.

Here's what info I have:

Frantz Carl Huyet (aka Francis Hewitt/Huet) b.c1718 Germany m.on 07 Mar 1746 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Maria Gertrud Quattlebaum b.c1728 Germany.

They had at least one child:
Johan Jacob Huyet b.30 Nov 1748 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.


Johan is supposedly buried in the Huiet Burial Grounds in South Carolina. I can find no record of where this may be.

-----
Frantz came over in the ship Glasgow from Germany to Philadelphia. He then moved to South Carolina where he bought 200 acres on Crims Creek, which is in present-day Newberry County (the name on the land info is Francis Huet). He apparently also bought some land in 1769 where he signed as Huyet, but I haven't been able to find that record yet.
-----
Given that my Hewitt/Huet family is from the Newberry County and Laurens County area, and that the nearest Hewitt family besides Frantz's is in Charleston, I have a feeling the two are connected. However, I need more info on Frantz's descendants before I can figure it all out.

Thank you,
Shanna
