South Carolina Marriages, 1800-1820

A follow-up to South Carolina Marriages, 1688-1799, this second volume of marriage records extends the period of coverage through the year 1820. Like the first volume it is based on a scattered and miscellaneous group of source records. Until now these early records have been accessible only to the experts. Thanks to the meticulous researches of Mr. Brent Holcomb, however, they are now available to everyone. Indeed, drawing on more than thirty separate sources, Mr. Holcomb has wrested from obscurity some 2,000 records of marriage for the 1800-1820 period, each record carefully abstracted, documented, and indexed.
