Research in colonial South Carolina is frustrated by a lack of indexes of tax, land, and legislative records and newspapers. Far more than a "name list," this book has been taken from original documents and newspapers in South Carolina and the British Public Records Office in London, England. Records of long residents of the colony as well as those persons just arriving are included. Some hard-to-find sources abstracted were land titles and petitions for bounty land in the up-country, passenger lists, customs records, and newspapers. The 2nd Edition adds Land Memorials Book 2. Hardback, 508 pages, full name index. NOW OUT OF PRINT
