❚ Introduction
This bibliography provides an easy-to-use list of the county, city, and
town histories and related published records—abstracts of wills and
deeds, cemetery records, marriage and death notices, and so forth—
available in the Department’s reference library. The list is organized
by county, each followed first by a brief description of its origin, then
by cross references to related counties, and finally by the author, title,
place of publication, printer or publisher, date of publication, and the
Reference Room call number of each publication held.
The card catalogue located at the entrance to the Reference Room
Library holds information on all our holdings—general South Carolina histories, histories of specific periods, statewide genealogical
compilations, and so forth. You should consult it as well. Archaeological and architectural studies appear in this bibliography only if they
contain county histories, or if published material on a particular
county is limited.
For more extensive holdings on South Carolina history, including
both published and unpublished family genealogies, you may wish to
visit the South Caroliniana Library on the University of South Carolina campus.
