SUMMARY:The Grim Years: Settling South Carolina\, 1670–1720
DESCRIPTION:The Horry County Museum and the AVX Foundation present a lecture by John Navin on his book\, The Grim Years: Settling South Carolina\, 1670–1720 on Saturday\, August 21st at 1:00 PM. \nThe Grim Years: Settling South Carolina\, 1670–1720 is a graphic account of South Carolina’s tumultuous beginnings\, when calamity\, violence\, and ruthless exploitation were commonplace. With extraordinary detail and analysis\, John J. Navin reveals the hardships that were experienced by people of all ethnicities and all stations in life during the first half-century of South Carolina’s existence—years of misery caused by nature\, pathogens\, greed\, and recklessness. \nFrom South Carolina’s founding in 1670 through 1720\, a cadre of men rose to political and economic prominence\, while ordinary colonists\, enslaved Africans\, and indigenous groups became trapped in a web of violence and oppression. Navin explains how eight English aristocrats\, the Lords Proprietors\, came to possess the vast Carolina grant and then enacted elaborate plans to recruit and control colonists as part of a grand moneymaking scheme. But those plans went awry\, and the mainstays of the economy became hog and cattle ranching\, lumber products\, naval stores\, deerskin exports\, and the calamitous Indian slave trade. The settlers’ relentless pursuit of wealth set the colony on a path toward prosperity but also toward a fatal dependency on slave labor. Rice would produce immense fortunes in South Carolina\, but not during the colony’s first fifty years. Religious and political turmoil instigated by settlers from Barbados eventually led to a total rejection of proprietary authority. \nUsing a variety of primary sources\, Navin describes challenges that colonists faced\, setbacks they experienced\, and the effects of policies and practices initiated by elites and proprietors. Storms\, fires\, epidemics\, and armed conflicts destroyed property\, lives\, and dreams. Threatened by the Native Americans they exploited\, by the Africans they enslaved\, and by their French and Spanish rivals\, South Carolinians lived in continual fear. For some it was the price they paid for financial success. But for most there were no riches\, and the possibility of a sudden\, violent death was overshadowed by the misery of their day-to-day existence. \nJohn J. Navin is a professor of history at Coastal Carolina University\, where he teaches early American history and conducts research on community\, race\, and violence in colonial America. He holds a master’s degree in American studies from Boston College and a Ph.D. in history from Brandeis University. \nThe program will be held in the McCown Auditorium located at 805 Main Street\, Conway S.C. This event is free and open to the public. For more information\, call 843-915-5320 or email hcgmuseum@horrycounty.org.

SUMMARY:Horry County Museum Lecture Series: Agrarian Folklore & Folk Remedies
DESCRIPTION:Rural farming communities have long been places with people who lived and worked closely with the land for their daily survival. Folklore springs from this in ways such as knowing if the ‘signs’ are right for certain crops or other farm activities\, a concept that drives much of the information in the widely used Farmer’s Almanac to this day. Agrarian communities were also often distant from doctors\, or couldn’t afford to see one regularly. This encouraged folk remedies using mostly ingredients you could find on the average farm\, as well as community Faith Healers. Join us on September 18th at 1 pm to learn more about local agrarian folklore and folk remedies with Horry County Museum Technical Assistant Abigail Geedy. \nAbigail Geedy was born and raised in south-central Pennsylvania and moved to South Carolina for college in 2012. She has both an Anthropology Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree and a Graduate Certificate of Museum Management from the University of South Carolina. She began volunteering in museums in 2011 and had worked in curation at the South Carolina Institute of Archaeology and Anthropology for the last 5 years. In 2020\, she joined the Horry County Museum as a Technical Assistant. \nThe program will be held in the McCown Auditorium located at 805 Main Street\, Conway SC. This event is free and open to the public. For more information\, call 843-915-5320 or email hcgmuseum@horrycounty.org.
