Descendants say he was a trader among the Cherokee (note by Lisa Mitchell on Genforum 6 Nov 2001), "trapping and establishing trade routes. In the course of his 'business' he became acquainted with various other tradesmen whose genealogies can be notated through Quaker records of SC and NC: Lamb, Lynch, Siniard, Edmondson and Thompson. 'My Josiah Brock (son of Hiram) married Sarah Clarinda (Clara) Siniard who was the daughter of James Thomas Siniard (a French Indian Trapper) and Margaret Lamb, the half sister of Chief Red Head Will Webber.' "

Isaac and his brothers and sons lived near sons of his 1st cousin George Brock.

Isaac's children were born mostly in Orange Co., NC, and in Pendleton District which later became Anderson Co., SC. He served as a quartermaster in SC during the Revolution.
