Marriage Notices from Winnsboro MARRIAGES LISTED IN THE FAIRFIELD HERALD AND THE NEWS AND HERALD Albert Grover Brown and Mary Frances Roberts Marriage Picture – February 1, 1906 1 IN MEMORY OF GROVER PRESTON BROWN Frebruary 13, 1921 – Octrober 28, 1998 Son of Albert Grover and Mary Frances Roberts Brown 2 This book contains marriage notices and implied marriages from the Fairfield Herald, January 13, 1866 to October 5, 1876, and The News and Herald, October 12, 1876 to February 24, 1916. Both of these newspapers were published in Winnsboro, South Carolina. These papers had a tri-weekly edition and a weekly edition. Because more issues of the weekly edition remain, the vast majority of the marriage notices are from the weekly edition, which was published on Wednesday. Because of missing issues there are gaps in the notices. The main gap is between 1907 and 1916. There were no issues for 1907 through 1910 and only a few for issues for 1911 through 1916. Many of the notices appeared in two issues and the issue that contained all pertinent information is listed. There are a few notices that are listed twice because all pertinent information was not included in either notice. This book is divided into two sections. Section One (pages 4 through 76) has information from marriage notices from August 1, 1866 to May 6, 1911. The information lists any name, date and location found in the notices. This books ends in 1911 because this is when South Carolina started keeping marriage certificates. Section Two (pages 77 through 114) has marriages implied in death notices. These death notices are from July 4, 1866 to February 24, 1916. This section was added because we know how difficult it is to find the maiden name of an ancestor. Although South Carolina started keeping death certificates in 1915, this section ends in 1916. More information on these notices may be found in “Death Notices listed in the Fairfield Herald and The News and Herald Book”. This book has about 2300 death notices and includes any name, date, place of birth, place of death, cause of death, etc. found in the notice. Every effort was made to copy the information exactly as it was printed in the newspapers. As a result be sure to check any spelling that is close to the name you are researching. The entire notice may be seen on microfilm in the Fairfield County Library in Winnsboro, South Carolina. 3 January 13, 1866 Issue Married on the 16th ult. by the Rev. Wm. Banks, Capt. O. A.

H RICE, State Superintendent of Education. M125287 REPORT. To t he Honorable the Senate and the House of Representatives of the State of South Carolina : Gentlemen : The Public Schools of our State need money. Our system is capable of adjustment and amendment for all emergencies. These can be gradually applied, with the healthy growth of the work. It is well understood that we have too many schools. This tendency to multiply teaching places is natural, and has not been sufficiently guarded by law. The State undertook to give the peo ple a comprehensive and flexible system of schools, and very properly gave the Trustees, as nearest the voters, large powers. Under stress of political influence, in every neighborhood school houses have been sought, and too often located, without regard to the greatest good of the greatest number.

This book attempts to give a short, simple history of South Carolina from the first settlement to the present day. Biographical sketches of rulers and leaders are arranged in close connection in order to furnish a con- tinuous historical narrative. The story of the lives of many great and good men of the state is of necessity left out; the boys and girls of South Carolina must read about them in larger books than this. Many worthy and noble women have also helped to build up and strengthen the state of South Carolina. In Colonial and Revolutionary days, and most of all during the period of the Southern Confederacy, they toiled and suffered in behalf of their people. It is not possible, however, in these brief pages to give the story of their deeds of devotion and self-sacrifice. The statements made in this book are based through- out on public records and on the original writings of those who had a share in the events and deeds herein described.

Roger Grant, Committee Chair Dr. Rod Andrew Dr. Alan Grubb ABSTRACT This thesis is intended to demonstrate the tangible reforms initiated by Benjamin Ryan Tillman between 1885 and 1895 for farmers and other citizens of South Carolina. After exploring the most notable historiography surrounding the Tillman era in South Carolina, the thesis examines Tillman’s appeals to the farmers’ depressed condition, the establishment of Clemson Agricultural College, and state-level reforms of business and government institutions. Tillman’s restructuring of the South Carolina Penitentiary, the Lunatic Asylum, and the creation of the state liquor dispensary are shown to be significant accomplishments in the reformer’s political career.

Robertson of the Union City Schools, Miss Ina H. McNally of the Sumter City Schools and Miss Octavia Walden, Rural School Supervisor of Spartanburg County. These gifted teachers read and constructively criticized sections of the book while it was in manuscript. The thanks of the editor are rendered to Mr. A. S.

In yet another example of the State ignoring both this Court’s Orders and the requirements of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Report is not a rebuttal at all, but rather an opening, supplemental and rebuttal expert report collapsed into a single document by an expert never previously disclosed or included on any witness list. Moreover, the Report – addressing an issue as to which the State bears the burden of proof – was served one and a half months after the deadline for such disclosures. At this late hour, the State knew that its tardiness would prevent Intervenors (and Defendant) from filing 1 Defendants the United States, et al., do not object to the relief sought by this motion.
