Doing research in the
GoldenCorner
(Anderson-Oconee-Pickens)
counties
of South Carolina
might be time consuming for you, because of how these counties were formed.
Based on your time-period, you might need to research all (3) counties. As
a result, you'll find that many of the webpage links on the left side of this
page will represent all (3) counties.
- Prior to ~1783, no lawful White
settlements were above present southern Anderson
County border.
- In 1789 Pendleton County was formed as part of
the 96 Judicial District from Indian
Country.
-
In 1795 Pendleton County was placed in the Washington Judicial District.
- In 1799, Pendleton County was named Pendleton District by the State
legislature and
Washington
Judicial District was discontinued.
-
In 1826/27, Pendleton District was divided into the Anderson & Pickens
Districts.
-
In 1868 the state legislature decided to change all districts to counties.
-

Land.

The SC
GoldenCorner
GenWeb County Homesteads are due
to the volunteer efforts of
Paul Kankula and
Gary Flynn. We have spent thousands of dollars and over
10-years of spare time hours in order to bring you these
GoldenCorner
county homesteads. Our only reward is knowing that all our hard-work will
be permanently preserved in the GenWeb Project Archives and enjoyed by endless
generations to come. See
Remembering & Preserving Our Past
Heritage.
