Does anyone have any information in regards to Good Hope Plantation ? Robert Axson, owned a small plantation of 480 acres called Good Hope in the St John's Berkeley area, he bought the plantation from Janet Purkey in feb, 1834. I am searching for info as to what happpen to Good Hope.
"Plantations of the Low Country" does not contain a direct reference to ROBERT AXSON. However, there is a reference to WILLIAM AXSON, who was a mason. He worked on the construction of Pompion Hill Chapel which was built on a bluff above the east branch of the Cooper River in St. Thomas & St. Dennis parish. AXSON signed is name in the brickwork.
