Steve,
Can you give the address of the Greenville Library? I'm headed to South
Carolina July 20th-28th for a McCay reunion in Red Hill, Ga. I'm staying with
my mother above Walhalla and was going to go to the Anderson County Library and
Courthouse. I was born in Anderson and my family are from Pendleton-Clemson
area. Thought maybe Greenville Library may be better. What do you think? I
visited the Ancestral Library in Columbia before it moved but we're only going
to be in Columbia for one day this time. Thanks for any help you can give. Has
anyone been to the Pendleton Historic Society building?
Every time I'm there they are closed.
Janice in Texas
