Find Your Family History in South Carolina Newspaper Archives

As one of the original 13 colonies of the United States, South Carolina has been a highly important and influential state throughout American history. Not only was South Carolina the main port for trade throughout the southern states, but it was also a major player of the slave trade, which made this state among the most profitable and powerful during it’s establishing years. Also during this time, European immigrants found refuge in this area, which helped to increase the state’s population and diversity.

Perhaps your ancestors were involved in the American Revolution or where there when South Carolina became an official state in 1861. Or maybe you'll discover stories of them as a courageous fighter in the American Civil War.
