Hi Mike, Sorry - that info came from www.carolina.com Also: Camden District, SC Evolution of Boundaries - With Known Towns & Villages The "overarching" *Camden District ceded t**erritory to the Pinckney District in 1791 and to the Cheraws District in 1792*. Its population grew from 38,265 in 1790 to 42,693 in 1800, when it was eliminated and broken into smaller districts (counties).

To save me time, if you belong to any of these families could you let me know and what Family Chapter number I might have given that family, so that I can enter those details in the fourth column. > > The entries for the Camden District do not match the current Counties. Camden District was abolished in 1785, so I am not sure why this term was used in in 1790, but with many of these Counties being in the NW corner of South Carolina, it may be worth descendants of any of these families going to the Greenville, SC Games at the end of May. This is usually held on the Saturday, with about 60 Clan Tents include a Boyd Tent. > > Then you can visit the County Library from where your family came from.
