The Last Foray
The author examines the education, public offices, religion, and general culture of the large plantation owners of antebellum South Carolina. He appends brief biographical sketches of almost 400 plantation owners, including birth and death dates, names of plantations, land and slave holdings, details of education, church affiliations, public offices held, society memberships, and publications credited.
Willtown
Willtown was founded in the late 17th century on the banks of the South Edisto River, but the movement of the Willtown Church in the 1760s to another location marked the demise of the town. Hugh C. Lane Jr. encouraged The Charleston Museum in its research in and around the Willtown area, asking the question, "Why did Willtown fail?" "Our serendipitous discovery of James Stobo's rice plantation a mile from Willtown revealed a site remarkable in its pristine preservation, the clarity of its stratigraphic record, the number and types of artifacts recovered, and in the complexity of its architectural detail."--Introduction, p. 1.
