There are 14 Ladsons listed...Is there a particular oneyou are looking for?

Pictures of several of the churches of Old Berkeley County are in J. Russell Cross' "Ramblins in Old Berkeley County". Upon proper permission of the author and/or the Berkeley County Historical Society, I or someone could scan and post them. St. James Goose Creek (a clearer version than I've seen so far) is included. If I can find the pics my parents took, I will post them in the meantime. I think they are of St. Thomas/St. Denis and of St. James Goose Creek. And I plan to take as many as possible when there for the Huguenot reunion in April. Will post online after that. Elizabeth DuBois Russo

Judy, I would love to have a copy of the Huguenot Church in Charleston. Barbara Wouters wouters@mindspring.com

Barbara, The photo is on its way to you. Judy << Judy, I would love to have a copy of the Huguenot Church in Charleston. Barbara Wouters wouters@mindspring.com >>

I have a photo of the Huguenot Church in Charleston scanned if anyone would be interested, I will gladly send it. Judy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ << Jerri Lynne A great idea to add the photo of St. James Goose Creek to the Charleston pages. Please consider posting pictures of OTHER wonderful old, historic churches to the Charleston Archives. Then people like myself with "Charleston roots" - who live too far away to visit in person - can still "see" the "real thing". Mary Alice >>

Have you placed all of these AXSON , if so will you PLEASE list .

The St James Santee Plantation Parish History and Records 1685 -1925 Axson, John Page 34n Captain John Axson lived and planted rice at Palo Alto Plantation. His Charleston residence was in Mazyckborough on Charlotte Street. In his will, dated 1840, he left his friend Thomas Gadsden a pope of Maderia wine. Page 154 John Axson gave 5 acre site on Islington Plantation for the rectory with the proviso that the land be returned if not used as a site for the rectory. Page 279 Palo Alto plantation was next to the Wedge. It was originally owed by Farr, then to William Douxsaint, John Axson, Dr Alexander Gadsden, Stephen Doar, then Samuel C Doar, ( Doar page 44) I do not know if you had this .

I have seen it both ways too....but most of the records I have seen on the family have it as Susannah Elizabeth.....

Betty: Thanks. I do not have the Arthur parents either, nor Elizabeth's husband. Sure would like to find out for sure whether the mother's name was Elizabeth Susannah, or Susannah Elizabeth Mouzon. I've seen it both ways lately. Edward >Axson- Parents--William and Eliz'th Susn'h Mouzon > >Elizabeth........born Dec. 12, 1762 > bap.

Mary, This church you speak of in St. James, could it be the Hugaunot Church? My husbands ancestor, Rev. Pierre Robert founded the first Huguenot church in that area. He sailed to Charleston with his family and followers in 1686. I have scanned photo's. Judy << Re my question on location of Parish of St. James Goose Creek/Charleston Neck THANKS to Patricia, Barbara and Elizabeth for taking the time and interest to reply with some great information. I looked at the SC Roots List - did not find a reply re exact location of "Charleston Neck".However, I did find several entries re taverns on the road - at 4 Mile, 6 Mile, etc. More on this later !! I got out my Charleston map - ordered from Triple AAA !! I found the street names- Stromboli, etc. in the area of modern North Charleston. Guess by the 1870's - these farms were being developed into streets with individual lots for sale. My 1852 deed - for 61 acres - was presumably one of the earlier farms - only boundaries named were two other land owners - and "vacant land" - possibly river marsh ? I turned over the map - to look for Mt. Pleasant Street - "new " city limits in 1849. Just above this street and the cemeteries on the map - there is a narrower (word?) section of the Charleston peninsula between the Ashley and Cooper Rivers. To my surprise, one short street is marked "Four Mile Lane". Presumably the location of the long ago Four Mile Tavern !! I thinks this is so neat ! This area must definitely be Charleston Neck or "the Neck". However, per map, only few streets are shown - plus some railroad tracks to warehouses?. Hardly residential at this time or maybe never. Re the "Parish" boundaries. Per Patricia's quotes from tour guide - the 1849 City of Charleston annexed that PART OF THE PARISH OF ST. PHILIPS between Boundary (Calhoun) and line drawn River to River - now Mt. Pleasant Street. I believe this means that in 1849 the Parish of St. Philips - ALREADY INCLUDED this particular area beyond then city limits of Boundary (Calhoun) Street. So I think any property sold in this particular area - in 1852 - would be called Parish of St. Philips, not St. James, Goose Creek. Plus, the size of the property - at 61 acres - definitely indicates a rural/country area - perhaps modern North Charleston - and later developed into individual city/type lots.. I would still like to learn, if possible - location of the boundary between St. Philips and St. James, Goose Creek. Why not Four Mile Lane ? Also, re the actual existing church of St. James, Goose Creek. I found and printed a great black and white picture of this church (my printer is B&W). But no mention of street address. Also I did not see church marked on my map - although others historic sites were indicated. Presume the church is located near the actual Goose Creek - and the church members came by boat to worship. Of course my map is for Charleston County and I believe you mentioned church is now part of Berkeley County. My roots (paternal and maternal) are in Charleston although I've always lived hundreds of miles away. I am new to "internet genealogy" and enjoy reading all the questions and answers on the list. Patricia, Barbara and Elizabeth - THANKS AGAIN for your informative messages. Mary Alice Droze Erwin PS - Thanks for name of book by J. Russell Cross - "Ramblings in Berkeley County". I will request on Interlibrary Loan. >>
