Greetings from SC. I don't know of a research center but the Georgetown County Public Library (right down town) has a fairly good collection. I have spent several afternoons there in the past & have been pleasantly surprised by their SC holdings. URQ

Does Georgetown have a historical research center? If so, would someone please post their address. ________________________________________________________________________ Check out AOL.com today. Breaking news, video search, pictures, email and IM. All on demand. Always Free.

I hope this helps you and others.... =========== To: afrigeneas@msstate.edu Subject: Enumeration District maps From: "Damita D. Green" Date: Wed, 9 Apr 1997 11:07:36 -0400 (EDT) Reply-To: "Damita D. Green" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have you ever wondered what happened to the county maps used for the Census'? While at the College Park, MD branch of the National Archives I ran across the following FREE publication: "The National Archives of the United States - Preliminary Inventories - Number 103 - Cartographic Records of the Bureau of the Census"; compiled by James Berton Rhoads and Charlotte M. Ashby; National Archives Publication No. 58-6; published by The National Archives - National Archives and Records Service - General Services Administration, Washington: 1958, reprinted 1981. This booklet has an index of the Enumeration District ("Office Copy") Maps, 1880-1940 that are available for each state and county. It's wonderful if you have no idea if these maps are available for your research. The 1880-1890 maps are few and far between. These maps are on file at National Archives at College Park Cartographic Reference 8601 Adelphi Road College park, MD 20740-6001 (301)713-7040 - Cartographic Reference Room I was able to get copies of the 1900, 1930, & 1940 Enumeration District Maps for Clarendon County, SC. The 1900 ad 1930 maps are especially helpful to me because the township and enumeration district boundaries hadn't changed much during that time frame. The maps vary in size and detail. The 1930 Clarendon County maps has excellent detail, and is roughly 3x3 feet, whereas the 1900 map shows very little detail other than the major cities/towns and the townships, and is small in size (less than 7" wide). Now i know where those no longer existing townships are in relation to present day areas. They also have mail order service thru vendors. Contact the Archives for more information.

Someone was looking for Woodlief, this is certainly the site for that name. It also has recipes on it! I had sent this to the Huguenot list but remembered not everyone reads the Huguenot list, so here it is. Kit F. http://www.geocities.com/awoodlief/martin.html this is a site for Huguenot info, there are many names mentioned. Kit F.

There are outlines of the township boundaries. Clarendon county maps are available for at least 1930 & 1910 and perhaps other years, I just do not recall. You can also search the census rolls. There is a series that lists the enumeration district descriptions as well, that would help somewhat in approximating township boundaries. Good luck, Damita Drayton Green dldgreen@mail.com

He was born "around" 1823 in Alabama. In Monroe County, he held several land patents above Beatrice, AL. In 1850, he is listed in Escambia County, FL - Pensacola. He married Mary Ann Elizabeth McMillan (from AL) on Feb. 14, 1850. His son was named Daniel T. Chisholm. Hugh worked in Pensacola at the Navy Yard as a carpenter; he was in the shipping business according to a family source. He was killed or died before 1850 - before his son was born on Dec. 25, 1850. John Chisholm - was also a carpenter - born in NC in 1810. He married Matilda Curry (from Georgia) in 1834. John held land patents near Hugh and Daniel Chisholm. After 1840, John and Matilda moved to Mobile County, AL. Their children were: 1850 Mobile County, AL census John Chisholm was 40 years old, a carpenter from NC Matilda was 37 years old from Georgia William Allen Chisholm was 14 years old - he later married Martin Arledge's daughter, Nancy Elizabeth Arledge, and they moved to Winn Parish, LA.
