Hi, Is there anyone there in Charleston, SC. that would know the address of a yellow house on the corner of Tradd and King which faces Broad St. The other corner building that faces Broad St. is, I believe, a gas station. I was there for a few short hours last summer and found this house that my grandparent had lived in in 1889. I did not think to see what the address was. I also could not tell if the address would be Tradd St. or King St. In the 1900 census he was living at 9 New St. His name was Alexander Richie Haig. So far I have only been able to get the 1900 census on the Haig family. They moved to Charleston in early 1700s from Scotland. My 5th great grandfather was George Haig and his wife was Elizabeth Webb Haig. In the early 1730s George was a land surveyor of District 96- Cherokee Trail. He was killed by the Sennaca Indians in 1948. Thanks for any help. Betty

I will be in Charleston this summer - can anyone suggest a place where the European origins of my ancestor, Thomas KICKLIGHTER might be recorded? I know when he arrived in Charleston, the name of the ship, and the port from which he departed with his family, but not his country of origin. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Yes, there are still standing markers at St. John's Lutheran cemetery. It's a nicely kept cemetery and many might well pre-date the Civil War since many are also in German. I have seen tombstones erected in memory of people who were not buried at a site, but have also seen markers erected at later dates for people who were buried at a site. I'm not sure there is any 'rule' on this one. Sorry, I have no idea what the 'rule book' refers to. Good luck.

Hi All! I just received an answer to my request about my ancestors being buried in St. John's cemetery--and finally, I got a "YES" answer. Now I have questions that perhaps can be answered by listers, instead of having to write back and forth... Are there still stones standing in St. John's cemetery, from before the "War between the States"? Does anyone know what the "Rule Book" is pertaining to? There is a notation about his place of birth in this book...Does it have anything to do with St. John? If a tombstone is erected to the memory of a spouse about 28 years after he dies, does that mean he IS buried there, or could his body actually be somewhere else and this is just a memorial to him? Any ideas or experiences on this??? Hope this is good food for thought... Maggee

DISCOURSES OF SLAVERY AND ABOLITION: WRITING IN BRITAIN AND ITS COLONIES, 1660-1838 A Two-Day International Conference at the Institute of English Studies University of London, United Kingdom 6-7 April 2001 Proposals are invited for short papers. SUBJECT AREA: This conference aims to bring together scholars working on the literature of slavery and abolition in the long eighteenth century. For almost two centuries, between the formation of the Royal Adventurers to Guinea in 1660 and the complete emancipation of slaves in British colonies in 1838, the effects of slavery and the slave trade were evident at every level of British society. Accordingly, there existed by 1838 a considerable body of literature concerned with slavery, abolition and emancipation, a body which included political tracts and pamphlets, newspaper and periodical reports, biography and autobiography, and novels, poems and plays. This literature is often viewed merely as historical source material, an approach which often precludes a more subtle discussion. The conference will raise questions about its form, genre, rhetorical strategy, its place in the wider context of literature in the long eighteenth century as well as its historical, political, and theoretical context. POSSIBLE THEMES FOR PAPERS: * Fiction, drama, and poetry of slavery and abolition * Journals, letters and diaries * Individual authors * Individual abolitionists * Black self-representations * Rhetoric of abolition * Theories of race and empire * Slavery and Augustan, sentimental, or Romantic literature * Race and gender * Newspapers and periodicals. * Pro-slavery writing * Travel writing * Images of Africa and Africans * Writing the Caribbean * Colonial encounters * Women and the abolition movement * Slavery beyond the Atlantic PROPOSALS: Proposals should be approximately 300-400 words for 20 minute papers. They should be submitted to the conference organisers by 31 October 2000. E-mail proposals are preferred, but typewritten copy is also acceptable. Informal enquiries can also be made to the organisers. SUBMISSIONS TO: b.a.carey@qmw.ac.uk or Brycchan Carey Discourses of Slavery and Abolition Conference School of English and Drama Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London Mile End Road London E1 4NS United Kingdom FURTHER INFORMATION: The conference webpage will be regularly updated: http://sites.netscape.net/brycchan/dsa.htm

Hello, The Second Presbyterian Church is off Meeting Street behind the Manigault House. It is also across the street from the museum. The address of the Manigault House is 350 Meeting and also across the street is the Visitors Center. That should help you locate it. Have you tried calling to see if they have a list of burials there? The number is 843-723-9237 at 342 Meeting Street, Charleston, SC 29403. JOY

"Entangled Lives" is useful to those of us researching slaveholding families. It's about Pam Smith and Ann Neel. Pam was researching her family's slave history, and Ann was an expert on slaveholding families. They found out Pam's ancestors had been owned by Ann's. Now they have a website called Entangled Lives: www.entangledlives.com Marian Douglas RootsWeb Sponsor dasha@unet.com.mk Brabham, Lowndes, Brownfield, Starling, Duncan, Kearse, Deas in South Carolina.

I am helping my husband track down his gggrandfather. The best information we have is from the 1850 census in Charleston where he is shown as follows: McCabe, James 48 from Ireland Isabella 44 Pennsylvania John 17 Pennsylvania George 14 New York (my husband's ggrandfather) Edward 9 New York Bery F 4 South Carolina We then think we have found James & Isabella in the WPA cemetery project at the Second Presbyterian Church. But we are looking for the rest of the family. Does anyone have a cemetery book for the Charleston County area? Is there one on online? Can someome tell me where the Second Presbyterian cemetery might be? We are trying to plan a trip to Charleston in the next few weeks, either August or September. Thanks Cheryl Flowers
