Library, I >found a book called,"Fairfield Family Histories" (1700's-1982), compiled by >Faye Johnson, Published by Fairfield Publishers, Inc. The library copied >pages for me for 10 cents a page. They might do that plus the cost of >postage. Their number is 803-635-4971. They also had a copy of the 1820-25 >atlas of Fairfield co. with names of many of the property owners and the >location of the property identified. There was also a sketch book of old >homes around the county, with brief histories of the original and subsequent >owners. I don't have the name of that book but the librarian would know what >you were asking about. There are three volumes of Fairfield CO. cemeteries. >Vol. 1, Western Section, Vol. 2, Eastern section and Vol 3, Misc. and >family cemeteries. All three provided new dates and connections for me. >Also, the Fairfield County Museum @231 Congress St., Winnsboro, SC 29180 > 803-635-9811, has two rooms of genealogy materials and files. They are >staffed by volunteers on Wed and were wonderfully helpful. They will answer >questions and make copies @20 cents per page plus postage. They have large >copies of the Fairfield page from the 1820 atlas for $5 and they sell the >cemetery indexes for $25 each. > Is anyone else researching descendants of Thomas, the Regulator >Woodward? I have very good records after him but his parentage and previous >generations are sketchy. Good luck in your searches, Karen > >
