Your Lee County Connection My name is Cindy Ridgeway Parker. I
volunteered
as coordinator for the Lee County, South Carolina USGenWeb homepage
because
all of my roots go back to the Old Sumter District, which much of Lee
County
was formerly part of. My parents, my grandparents, their parents, and
on
back were born in Clarendon County which was also part of Old Sumter
District.
I was born in and I live in Sumter County, less than 20 miles from
where
my ancestors were settlers, farmers, and then planters. My family has lived in South Carolina from as far back as 1680.
If you have other data to add to the files that you find posted on this web site, please let me know. I will be happy to get them on-line for you. "Each smallest act of kindness reverberates across great distances and spans of time, affecting lives unknown to the one whose generous spirit was the source of this good echo, because kindness is passed on and grows each time it's passed, until a simple courtesy becomes an act of selfless courage years later and far away....." This Momentous Day, H.R. White Let's
continue our circle of sharing. The Lee County, SCGenWeb site
is dedicated to the memory of my beloved daughter, Melissa Leigh Sutton Carolina Girl turned Hodkgin's Warrior, turned Carolina Angel. June 6, 1978 - May 19, 2004 http://www.palmettostateroots.org/missy
Sumter County Be sure to take a look at the Sumter County home page too. Since much of Lee County was once part of the Old Sumter District it might be a good idea to look there also. The old Salem County area that was once part of Old Sumter District is now within Lee County's borders. There are many more queries on the Sumter page .

(To find out which counties need a coordinator, check on the main SCGenWeb
page.) About the South Carolina USGenWeb Project In March and April, 1996, a group of genealogists organized the Kentucky Comprehensive Genealogy Database. The idea was to provide a single entry point for all counties in Kentucky, where collected databases would be stored. In addition, the databases would be indexed and cross-linked, so that even if an individual was found in more than one county, they could be located in the index. At the same time, volunteers were
found who
were willing to coordinate the collection of databases and generally
oversee
the contents of the web page. The SCGenWeb Project is an extension of
the
KYGenWeb Project. This project is now nationwide. The USGenWeb The USGenWeb Project and the SCGenWeb Project are a non-commercial, all-volunteer organization and are NOT connected in any way with USGenWeb, Inc. which is a for-profit Idaho corporation.
