Haddrell's Point is located in Mt. Pleasant on Shem Creek right across the harbor from Charleston. I live about 2 blocks away. There is no cemetery there. It is actually the old cite of the Lucas Family's rice plantation. I will check next month with the Christ Church Historical Society to see if they have any record of a cemetery. Are you looking for anything in particular> Rhita Wood Reynolds
Thank you so much for the information, it was an assumption on my part that there would be some type of burial around Haddrell's Point. There were a lot of deaths of Tories and Rebels and they had to bury them somewhere. In 1782, many refugees (Loyalist) arrived and spent a few months in some type of refugee camp. There were many deaths in the camps, I wonder where they are buried. I found a list of dead the back of Murtie June Clark's book " Loyalists in the Southern Campaign". the list was from a coffin maker. It names the dead and the person who was handling arrangements but not the place of burial. One of my ancestors, Robert Phillips of Fairfield County, died Aug. 12,1782 while a refugee. I would like to know where in Charleston, the burial would have taken place. It does not make sense that he would have been taken to Fairfield County. It was August, hot and muggy, they would have buried them quickly. Do you have information on this? As for Haddrell's Point, one of my Phillips Ancestors died there, he had to have been buried nearby. This is where my assumption that a cemetery would have been near by. Thank you for your help and Happy Easter. Frances Waring Hills wrote: > Hi Frances, > > Haddrell's Point is the tip of land on the south side > of Shem Creek in Mount Pleasant.

Is there someone on the list that get a copy of a will in Charleston for me. I would be happy to pay for it. I hope it will prove to be my ggggrandfather. Jerry Beddingfield
Hi Frances, Haddrell's Point is the tip of land on the south side of Shem Creek in Mount Pleasant. After the fall of Charleston, all enlisted men were put on prison hulks in the harbor, the officers were put on parole in Mt. Pleasant and allowed to travel as far as Christ Church, six miles to the north of the village. They had to routinely check in at the Hibben House (111 Hibben Street) to validate their parole. Their is no cemetary at Haddrell's Point. I would be interested to know the source for your information on prisoner burial. Best wishes, Waring Hills Mt. Pleasant, SC// __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send online invitations with Yahoo! Invites. http://invites.yahoo.com

Can anyone give information on Haddrell's Point? In 1780-81 the British controlled Charleston, capturing rebel prisoners. Many men were killed, they were buried somewhere around Haddrell's Point. Is there a cemetery around there, where is Haddrell's Point in relation to downtown Charleston?

Julie and anyone with these names in Charleston, Georgetown or Williamsburg SC, I am doing the best I can (which is pretty badly) at tracking down connections with my early NORTON family who had doctors and ministers among them and lived in Georgetown, SC; Williamsburg, SC; and Charleston in the period before 1851. A couple of NORTONS married HONOURS and I am hoping you or someone else may know about them. ANNE NORTON b ca 1798 probably Georgetown, married a LEE RENTZ in Charleston before 1816. They had a daughter named MARIA RENTZ who married LAWRENCE HONOUR (I do NOT have the dates on this, but I believe LAWRENCE HONOUR would have been in the age group to have been in the CSA. Please let me know if your HONOUR has any Rentz and especially NORTON contacts! Thank you so much for looking.

Hi Mary Alice, I would so appreciate getting the information from you to contact the St. Andrews Lutheran Church on Wentworth. I am "missing" some of my St. John's Lutheran ancestors, so maybe I can find them there...got to try! I photocopied all the German (translated) St. John's Lutheran Church Records from 1763-1787 from microfilm including births, marraiges, baptisms and deaths in case you have other questions. I've been keeping an eye out for your Droze family! Thanks....Lynn

Julie Thames Howell wrote re family bible record of Charleston wedding in 1848 by minister named Rev. I. H. Honor - and hoped to learn his church. I believe I might have the answer !! These past few years, I have had much success in corresponding wih several historic Charleston Lutheran Churches - re records of my maternal and paternal lines. Thanks to a recent mention on the List - I called historic St. Joannes Lutheran Church. No records of my family, but they referred me to a near neighbor - St. Andrew's Lutheran Church on Wentworth Street. I spoke with their Church Historian - and he kindly researched my family names, and mailed me photocopies of the church index cards - recording baptism, confirmation, marriage, funeral, etc. Most were for collateral lines - but to my complete surprise and joy - one was record of my own Droze great grandparents' wedding. Also per my request, he mailed me a booklet re History of the Church, which he had written in 1978. The St. Andrew's Lutheran Church (originally called the Wentworth Street Lutheran Church) was formed in 1866 after the Civil War, by merger of two congregations - the Zion's Lutheran Church and the Wentworth Street Methodist Protestant Church. (Note: The Methodists then became members of the Lutheran faiith.) The Lutheran Pastor was Rev. William S. Bowman - and the Methodist Pastor was Rev. Dr. John H. Honour. During the 1800's, the capital letters "I" and "J" were often written the very same way. So I believe that your Rev. I. H. Honor - was the Methodist Pastor - Rev. J. H. Honour - who in 1848, was still a member of the Methodist Church . Also, remember per custom, weddings were not in church - but usually in home - nearly always that of the bride. (Same for funerals.) As I write this, I am looking at a picture of Rev. Honour. Wish I had a scanner - but alas !! I do not. Julie, let me know if you would like a photocopy of this page and/or church address for further direct correspondence with them. Mary Alice Droze Erwin
Hi All! I apologize for duplicate posts of this message. Found this in my bookmarks. It has the title of a book about plantations which mentions some plantations in S.C. I've never heard of.

John, The Butler family ties in somewhat with one of my gggg grandfathers. It is rumored that he traveled with a John Butler to NC to supervise the construction of a church and several other structures near Fletcher NC. Just cant find proof of this. Bill Baldwin Clearwater FL Thanks for looking. All I know is that some (or all) of the plantation was owned in the 1820s by the Butler family. I think it was a pretty small plantation. John
