There is a publication that was available from Donalds Historical Society that was written by C. Newell Bowie published in 1993. It contains a map overlayed on a current map of an area by Donalds and Due West in Abbeville District. This area was called Boonesborough Township and was platted In 1762 and consisted of 20,500 acres. It shows about 70 plats with names of the owners. The Historical Society did have a web site that offered this and other publications for sale. A Google search should find them. Charles Webb "Dale E.

There are two items that should be of great interest to anyone trying to understand early 19th century Abbeville District settlement. First, there is a collection GIF image files for the 1820 census of Abbeville District. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/sc/abbeville/census/1820/ Second, there is an online image of the 1825 Robert Mills Landowner's Map of Abbeville District. This does display all landowners. Instead, it displays principal and important landowners and sites such as mills, meeting houses, etc. as were found during a survey of the district in 1820. Both the census and the survey were conducted in the same year! This map image can be zoomed into and scrolled across in search of place names and those places where important personages resided. http://www.davidrumsey.com/maps860022-23855.html If you can find your ancestors in that listing of the 1820 census alongside their neighbors, then you can compare those neighbors against that map's display of landowners. There are possibilities in comparing these two resources. Sincerely, Dale E.
