Recounting the challenges, choices, and triumphs of successive generations of people of color, Wilhelmena Kelly relates distant examples of wisdom and leadership that, when examined, reveal the shared history of many of today's Southerners. This volume comes with an indexed guide to old church cemeteries and long-forgotten Barnwell burial grounds, providing a name-by-name list of ancient county residents, many who have descendants now living in New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chicago, and Washington, D.C., to name just a few. It also includes the only known index to 1860 Slaveholders in Barnwell County, widening the trail to further discovery. |
