The lands south of the Charles Town colony remained unsettled and undeveloped for nearly 50 years after its founding. This course explores the forces, policies, and tensions that eventually opened the region south of the Edisto River to settlement, and how infrastructure was developed to accelerate and sustain communities on the southern frontier of the Thirteen Colonies. The Beaufort District's role in early revolutionary efforts will also be examined.
