In 1761 John Cogdell was master of Wm Shakelford's schooner "Good Intent". In 1765 he acquired an island in Winyah Bay. In 1771 he was given ferry rights from his plantation on Waccamaw Neck to Georgetown and Sampit.
After the Revolutionary War, Georgetown SC still possessed a "merchant-class" which included John Cogdell. He ran a store for Smiths, DeSaussure & Darnell or Charleston who in turn were backed by the Anglo-American firm in London of Bird, Savage & Bird.
On April 18, 1767 he and his brother Charles Cogdell Jr of Prince George Parish, Winyaw were appointed administrators of the estate of John Keen, Jr by the court of Ordinary.
Â
Cogdells were listed among the first settlers of Prince George Parish in SC. One historian classified names of the early settlers as French or English. He lists the Cogdells as English.
