If you write to any of the societies or archives on this list for information, please remember to include a self addressed stamped envelope (SASE). Most of these institutions work with a limited budget, supplemented by volunteers, and can not afford to respond unless a SASE is included in your letter. The names of online societies and other organizatons are in hypertext so that you may link directly to that page. If you have knowledge of any other South Carolina resources which should be listed on this page, please e-mail me the information. Thank you, in advance.

Based on an original file created by Robert McLaran in March 1989, this file was updated and uploaded by Bill Green in November 1993. Carl Kirton former, SCGenWeb State Coodinator took it from the Roots-L archive in 1996, and added more information, attempting to make it as complete as possible. I took over maintaining and adding to the the pages during June of 1997. If you find any errors or know of any information that I need to add to this listing, please let me know.
