No reference to either name in the book. I've learned through reading the book that it tends to focus on many of those plantations and churches that are on the National Historical Register. Many of the structures they highlight are standing today. Bill Baldwin Clearwater, Fl Does it have any thing in regards to a plantation called " Good Hope " which I have been told was also Old Home Place, later Lang Syne. Thanks, CJK

On Wednesday and Thursday of next week, a group of folks will be researching at the SC Historical Society library as a part of our Huguenot Internet Genealogical and Historical Society reunion. We are arranging for the library to stay open after hours for a fee, and a currently have a couple of spots for someone to join us. If you would be interested in joining with an interesting group of totally dedicated serious researchers from around the U.S., please let me know. We will fill the slots on a first come, first serve basis. The advantage--in addition to our marvelous company, of course--would be the opportunity for uninterrupted research for longer hours and with experienced staff and fellow researchers. Additionally, we are negotiating for the use of scanners--a first for this facility. [No promises yet. This is still under negotiation.] The cost would be five dollars an hour after 4 p.m. of each day. If you are the sort of researcher who copies hundreds of pages a day at a research facility, you would be quite at home among us nut cases.... :>]

In some cases I have found that the date on the cemetery records is the burial date.

I think it was a pretty small plantation. John

Hi, Bill Does it have any thing in regards to a plantation called " Good Hope " which I have been told was also Old Home Place, later Lang Syne. Thanks, CJK

John, Ormond Hall Plantation does not appear in my book "Plantations of the Low Country". Could it be under another family surname? Bill Baldwin Clearwater, FL.

Dear Margie, I hope to have an answer to your CARNE-STROBEL question below sometime next week. What more can you tell me about this couple? Or either of them? REsidence? Occupation? Religion, etc.?

I don't want to keep the digital thread running for to long but to beware of something that is coming in the future when it is very easy to print up a picture or two or three for you albums and so on. I use both cameras for different things and seldom take duplicate pictures just to make sure I have a copy for the future. This is what I do and the future will have to take care of itself.

I was wondering why the dates on the Death index cards is different , from the cemetery records. Can someone tell me who provides the information on the death index cards at the library ? Also does any one know why the place of interment is not on some of the cards . Regarding 1st Baptist Church Yard : is 1st Baptist Church Yard the same as 1st Baptist Burial Ground / or are they differnt places ? Thanks, CJK

i have an entry in a family bible about a marriage having taken place in charleston, sc between John Elliott THAMES and Anna R. C. Joye, on Nov 1, 1848 by the Rev. I. H. Honor. does anyone know, or know who i could contact to find out, which church the Rev. I. H. Honor was in? thanks for your help. julie thames howell, jax, fla

Thank you Charles for the advice. I was able to copy the list of those buried at the Huguenot Church from the Transactions. I hope to transcribe it for this list and the Hugo list when I get back. Or else upload it to my website. I was pleasantly surprised to see some HUTCHINSONs on the list. I don't know yet if they are "mine"--hoping to find out while in Charleston--but I'll claim them, along with the ALEXANDER DUBOIS who may or may not be related to any of my own DUBOIS. Hopefully I'll sound more definite about the relations when I ask the docents to see the cemetery. Unfortunately, we cannot afford to stay in the Historic District; Comfort Inn Riverside was the only place we could find for less than 150 dollars per night during the Easter holidays. At least it is a short distance away. Elizabeth DuBois Russo "Charles L.

Anne, you are so right about digital cameras. I have a Kodak 215 that I love. It has saved money and my photos are right where I can make good use of them. It is connected to both my desktop and my laptop for immediate downloading.

The technology will change and the day will come when you will not be able to "read' those pictures unless you continue to upgrade to the newest technology. I subscribe to a photo-genealogy site and the words of wisdom from professionals are to take a photo of your digital picture with a regular camera and have it printed on good paper in black and white.

I have hundreds of black and white negatives from the early 1900's that still print into good pic tures. My color negatives from 20 years ago are beginning to change.

Can anyone tell me anything about Ormond (or Ormand) Hall Plantation? It was in the northern part of what is now Charleston Co. at the mouth of the Santee River. I believe all or most of it is now in the area included in the Santee Coastal Reserve. Thanks. John Cook

I think you sent this one to me by mistake. However I am looking for Hayward (Heyward) from the Georgetown, Charleston, and Beaufort area. The Family I am looking for would have been slaves

I have a photo of the Huguenot Church in Charleston, white and very ornate, and I believe the name of it is St. James. Judy << This may seem like an elementary question, but I don't know too much about the Heugenot background. Is there another name for the Heugenot Church in Charleston. Someone told me that St. Philip's was the Heugenot Church. Thanks. Myrna Lazenby >>
