Six books have arrived in the Georgia Room today that genealogists researching the Palmetto State should find interesting: South Carolina’s Royal Grants, Volumes 1-5 and Marriage and Death Notices from ‘The Southern Presbyterian’, Volume 2.
The royal grant books cover the years 1732-1776 and include maps of colonial, coastal South Carolina as well as a name index in the back of each book.
Marriage and Death Notices covers these important Southern life events during the years 1865-1879. The Southern Presbyterian has a local connection as well- it was published in Augusta from 1864 to 1865.
