The Pendleton District in northwestern South Carolina has a complex
history. It was originally part of the Cherokee Indian lands which
were divided in 1789 to create Pendleton and Greenville counties.
The name was subsequently changed to Pendleton District and it
finally ceased to exist as a political unit about 1825 when it was
subdivided to form the present Anderson and Pickens counties. This
volume provides a brief (70 pages) history of the region followed
by hundreds of genealogical sketches of district families, which
includes the following: Adams, Adger, Anderson, Bee, Bellotte,
Benson, Blassingame, Bowen, Broyles, Burns, Burt, Calhoun, Cornish,
Craig, Davant, Davis, Dickinson, Dickson, Dupree, Earle, Gaillard,
Gibbs, I-fall, Hamilton, Hanckel, Harrison, Hastie, Hayne, Hubbard,
Hunter, Jenkins, Latta, Ligon, Lorton, Martin, Mavrick, Mays,
McBryde, McElhenny, Miller, Newton, North, Owen, Pickens, Pike,
Pinckney, Poe, Potter, Randell, Reese, Robinson, Ross, Scott,
Seaborn, Shanklin, Shaw, Simpson, Sitton, Sloan, Smith, Steel,
Stevens, Stirling, Symmes, Taliaferro, Taylor, Thompson, Trescott,
Warley, Watkins, Whitefield, and Whitner. Many of these families
and individuals were from Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, and
North Carolina, as did many of the wealthy residents of the
low-country of South Carolina. (1913), reprint 2007, 2011, New
