Charleston County Parks seeking descendants for input
(CHARLESTON COUNTY) – The Charleston County Park and Recreation Commission has initiated a site-specific cemetery study at its McLeod Plantation Historic Site on James Island.
The majority of the cemetery at McLeod Plantation Historic Site contains enslaved African Americans and family descendants associated with the plantation. The cemetery can be traced back to the property’s earliest recorded history from the mid-late 18th century, with the last recorded burial occurring in 1965. It’s estimated that the cemetery contains approximately 300 known and unmarked burials; however, additional research is needed to fully determine the cemetery’s physical boundaries, number of unmarked graves, and history.
As this study is being conducted, Charleston County Parks highly encourages and welcomes input from families, friends, and members of the community who may have loved ones buried in the McLeod Cemetery or have additional information about the site.
The
McLeod Cemetery Project will be completed in several phases. The first
phase is currently underway through summer 2022 and includes:
Visual and instrumental surveying to help identify existing and unmarked graves
Use of Ground Penetrating Radar
Use of scent detection dogs to help identify cemetery boundaries
Digital mapping, inventorying, and recording
Archival/historical research
Collection of oral histories from family descendants
A public presentation about Phase One findings
With over 11,000 acres, Charleston County Parks manages and preserves a wide range of natural and cultural resources. Part of this management includes several cemeteries within the parks. In 2021, Charleston County Parks completed a Cemetery Preservation Management Plan. Charleston County Parks believes each cemetery tells an important story and that these sites deserve respect, protection, and preservation. With each cemetery project, Charleston County Parks will work closely with descendants and the community at large to help honor the lives and legacies of those interred.
For the McLeod cemetery project, a special Advisory Group has been created that includes known family descendants, community members, Charleston County Parks Foundation, Historic Charleston Foundation, and the City of Charleston. Charleston County Parks contracted New South Associates, Inc. to provide professional services for the initial phase of cemetery work. New South is a nationally recognized cultural resource management firm, with extensive experience in handling historical cemeteries. To learn more about their expertise and services, please visit newsouthassoc.com.

The 1960’s, 70’s and 80’s were a tremendous time of change in the United States. It was a time defined by equality, civil rights, reaching for the stars, global turmoil, liberalism and conservatism, musical exploration and religious freedom. It was a time my when voices were heard and change was in the air. Here in Charleston, we maintained a family friendly coastal home. For many, it was our time of childhood when innocence, hopes and dreams engulfed our lives. Summers on the beach and rich history on the peninsula was the life we knew.
It was a wonderful time to be in Charleston, SC. We found some great images captured during this period of our Charleston home.
Take a step back with us. If you were raised during this time, enjoy these moments of reflection. If you were not, this is an opportunity to learn more about the evolution of this beautiful area.

About Video
We’ve told you the good. We’ve told you the bad. Now it’s time we tell you them together. In this video, we’re talking about the PROS and CONS of living in: Charleston, South Carolina. Charleston, the South Carolina port city founded in 1670, is defined by its cobblestone streets, horse-drawn carriages, and pastel antebellum houses, particularly in the elegant French Quarter and Battery districts.
The Battery promenade and Waterfront Park both overlook Charleston Harbor, while Fort Sumter, a federal stronghold where the first shots of the Civil War rang out, lies across the water. ― Google #CHARLESTON#SOUTHCAROLINA#TOP10
To those who like to send vulgar emails and leave nasty comments; These lists are not intended to be used for making life-changing decisions. They are just another look at the city. I present both good and bad points of view on this channel. I don’t just make videos that are negative. There are positive videos on the channel too, check them out. They are made from statistical sources made available by government agencies as well as first-hand resident experiences.
