    1. [SCHORRY-L] Tips for researching in SC
    2. I live in Boston and am planning a trip to Georgetown and Charleston in the fall. I need direction on how to research my g-grandparents' divorce between 1905-1910. He (TAYLOR) was from Charleston, she (CONGDON) was from Georgetown, and they lived together in Columbia, where he established a dental practice prior to the 1903 marriage. I understand that SC law prohibited divorce before 1949, and a special request had to be made to the legislature for permission. I have written to the Georgetown County Court twice, and received no response. Where would I look for this? Also, is there a web page to look through past queries for this group; if so, what is the web address? Finally, if I travel to SC on the day before Thanksgiving, will any of the libraries, historical societies or court houses be open on Friday (or Saturday or Sunday) of that weekend? > Thank you. > Kerry Wood > Boston > kmcwnu@aol.com > > Researching TAYLOR, TYLER, WILSON, WITHERSPOON in Charleston > Researching CONGDON, TAYLOR, REYNOLDS, HUCKS, LOHR in Georgetown
