Can anyone tell me what records are contained in the Charleston City Archives? My trip to Charleston in a couple of weeks will focus on 18th century records, and I'm wondering if they have those sort of records. Elizabeth DuBois Russo
Elizabeth - The Charleston City Archives is an evolving collection of official documents and memorabilia. You might want to call and see what they have at this point in time. I don't know if they have a web site or not. Phone number was: 843 724 7301. Charleston is a hard place to do research since records are scattered in lots of different places. What type of records are you seeking? I used to live there and am familiar with a lot of the repositories - but the lack of a centralized location for genealogically oriented records is frustrating.
