    1. [SCANDERS] Caesar, black preacher of Big Creek
    2. Kim Wilson
    3. Vandiver, _History of Anderson County_, p. 42: "One of the negro members [of Big Creek Baptist church] named Caesar was rather an unusual character. He was a preacher of considerable influence. He had been a slave who saved enough to buy his own freedom, and later bought his brother. The land just above the place where Rush and Vandiver's planing mill once stood, was owned by Caesar. He was buried in a field just in the rear of the old Williamston Female College buildings." ------- 1) Does anyone know where the old Rush and Vandiver's planing mill once stood? 2) Is Caesar's grave marked behind the old Williamston Female College buildings? 3) Does anyone know which surname Caesar took, or the name of his brother? Thank you, Kim
