To Quote Wilma's site: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Districts and Counties, 1785 The 1785 act gave the Cheraws District the counties of Chesterfield, Marlboro, and Darlington; it divided Camden District into York, Chester, Fairfield, Lancaster, Richland, Claremont, and Clarendon counties. It gave Ninety-Six District the counties of Spartanburg, Union, Laurens, Newberry, Abbeville, and Edgefield. And it divided Orangeburg District into Orange, Lewisburg, Lexington, and Winton counties. Thus I have mixed Old Pendleton with Old 96. Maryellen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wilma C.
