Check the link below, found on the Pageland, South Carolina Chamber of Commerce website: _http://pagelandcham.net/pageland-sc/history_ (http://pagelandcham.net/pageland-sc/history) This article on the history of Pageland indicates that the town was renamed at the time of incorporation after Adolphus High "Dolly" Page, the railroad engineer who apparently was responsible for getting the railroad to run through the town, formerly Blakeney's Crossroads. The town at the time of its application for incorporation, 1907, had a population of 157. I did not find any Page families enumerated in Blakeney's Crossroads in an Ancestry.com search of both the 1900 and 1910 census, but do not know if the town name would have been used in these enumerations (probably not in the former). There was, however, a farming family in the county, head of household was A. H. Page. I do not know if there is any connection there. Not knowing the history of the Adolphus High Page family, I am unable to give you the answer you are looking for. Following the family further back might prove helpful if you so choose. Judy Dugan
