Experience life on the family farm in Horry County from 1900-1955 at the L.W. Paul Living History Farm. Join us on January 4th from 9:30 AM until 10:30 AM for Farm Harvest Day to participate in the picking, gathering, and preparing of crops on the farm. This month’s demonstration will focus on the importance of firewood. Cutting firewood was as much a part of harvesting on farms as picking or gathering field crops and would normally take place in the winter months when the work load was typically lighter. Visitors can try their hand at using the tools for this task and learn about the different types of wood that were most desirable to use. The Horry County Museum and the AVX Foundation present a lecture by J. Grahame Long on January 4th, on his book Lost Charleston. Even in a city as conscious of history as Charleston, South Carolina, not everything has survived. Natural disasters, wars and other calamities claimed many treasures. Only a few preserved bits of one of the city’s grandest mansions survive at Dock Street Theatre. An old Quaker graveyard still rests in peace but does so under a downtown parking garage. The famous corner of Meeting and Broad Streets was once the area’s busiest marketplace. The Grace Memorial Bridge spanned the Cooper River for more than seventy years. Join us as author J. Grahame Long details the history of these and more lost locations in the Holy City. |
