CHURCH/CEMETERY HISTORY:
------------------------

In the Carolina Room, you will find bits and pieces of information collected by 
me, in my travels in different Counties in South Carolina. Visit 
http://members.aol.com/pastense2/scroom.htm

In the Carolina Room, I have stored many documents that pertain to the State of 
South Carolina, however, I do have some records that I have acquired from other 
States, as well. Here you will find a little bit of my Family History, South 
Carolina Misc. Records extracted, from (wills, deeds, marriage records, deaths 
records, probate records) Penitentiary Records, Coroner Inquisitions, Church 
Cemetery transcriptions where to get copies of these books, pictures, census 
information, surname connections, Mortality records, Slave records and Mortgage 
Records. 
 
Many of the items in my possession, were copied from the original document and 
later compiled and placed in one of my many databases, for future reference. 

Keep in mind, that a lot of hard work has been placed in the years of research 
that I have done. Most of what you will find here I freely share, with the 
understanding that it is copyrighted material, published either by me or someone 
else, that I have acknowledged.  

The following history information was taken from the Inventory of Church
