"In 1710, Nightingale, the matern

site of Winnsboro, it a spot aIfter

by the lamented ('elnerall, Strother. A

Congaree, soon after, formed a similar

it ippenrsi.. thtat they left B3ute Coint y,

they didl at the iioith of Beaver Creek,

We s Io se the late Jo2 I hnrri:on,

the former certailly inherited the

It was not uitil 1755 that the teri

This was Offected by ia treat y between
