Charles Quinn of Edgefield District, South Carolina was married to Rebecca Nicholson, daughter of David Nicholson and Rhoda Whitehead. He probably died there before 1830 when Rebecca Quinn is listed on the 1830 Monroe County, Georgia, census.

Charles Quinn received a legatee's distribution from the estate of David Nicholson and was living next door to his widowed mother-in-law Rhoda on the 1820 Edgefield District census.
