SUMMARY:The History\, Discovery\, and Recovery of the CSS Pee Dee armament at the Mars Bluff Naval Yard
DESCRIPTION:The Horry County Museum and the AVX Foundation present a lecture by State Underwater Archaeologist Jim Spirek on the History and Recovery of the CSS Pee Dee on July 16th at 1 PM.\nIn 2019\, three cannons from the CSS Pee Dee were installed between the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs building and the National Cemetery in Florence\, South Carolina. The cannons were jettisoned at the Mars Bluff Naval Yard and the gunboat scuttled in the Great Pee Dee River during the waning days of the American Civil War. The presence of these cannons represents the culmination of several decades of searching\, discovering\, recovering and conserving them for public display. Situated between these two military edifices\, the display was not intended as a memorial\, but rather to reflect on the sacrifices made by those in the armed services and of the complexity of human conflict. The project to document and recover the cannons relied on private and public partnerships. This presentation will provide historical background and archaeological findings from the investigations of the cannons\, CSS Pee Dee\, and the Mars Bluff Naval Yard.\nJames Spirek\, the State Underwater Archaeologist for South Carolina\, works at the South Carolina Institute of Archaeology and Anthropology at the University of South Carolina\, Columbia.  Employed there since 1996 and holding his current position since 2012\, Jim’s responsibilities include managing and studying the maritime archaeological legacy residing in the lakes\, rivers\, and coastal waters of South Carolina.  Jim has participated in numerous projects documenting a diverse range of sunken prehistoric and historic watercraft\, Colonial and Native American sites\, Civil War warships and blockade runners\, and other underwater archaeological remains in state waters.  He is co-editor of Submerged Cultural Resource Management: Preserving and Interpreting Our Sunken Maritime Heritage\, and a co-contributor to Archaeology in South Carolina: Exploring the Hidden Heritage of the Palmetto State\, Florida’s Lost Galleon: The Emanuel Point Shipwreck\, and Guns of the Pee Dee: The Cannon Recovery.  Jim received his B.A. in History from George Mason University in 1987 and his M.A. in Maritime History and Nautical Archaeology from East Carolina University in 1993.\nThe program will be held on July 16th at 1 PM 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.

SUMMARY:Steve Smith-Francis Marion
DESCRIPTION:“Steven Smith: Francis Marion and the Snow’s Island Community: Myth\, History and Archaeology” \nThe Horry County Museum and the AVX Foundation present a lecture by Steven Smith on July 23rd on his book\, Francis Marion and the Snow’s Island Community: Myth\, History and Archaeology. \nLoyalist Colonel Robert Gray described South Carolina as “a piece of patch work\, the inhabitants of every settlement\, when united in sentiment being in arms for the side they liked best and making continual inroads into one another’s settlements.” One of those pieces of patch work\, the people living on and surrounding Snow’s Island\, South Carolina\, were ‘united in sentiment’ against the British crown. This community of partisans had joined the rebellion as early as 1775 and had stubbornly refused to surrender\, even when Charleston fell in 1780. They had supplied food\, forage\, and blood to the rebellion and\, under the leadership of General Francis Marion\, had become an obstacle to British control of the southern colonies. This is their story. \nSteven D. Smith\, is a Research Professor at the South Carolina Institute of Archaeology and Anthropology at the University of South Carolina.  He is the former Director of the Institute\, and has over 40 years’ experience in historical archaeology\, largely focused on military sites of the American Revolution in the South.  He has conducted excavations associated with Francis Marion and American Revolutionary War battlefields including the siege of Fort Motte\, Parker’s Ferry\, Black Mingo\, Snow’s Island\, Camden\, the siege of Ninety Six\, and the battle of Williamson’s Plantation.  He is the author or co-author of six books\, including\, Partisans\, Guerillas\, and Irregulars:  Historical Archaeology of Asymmetric Warfare\, 2019\, University of Alabama Press\, and Francis Marion and the Snow’s Island Community\, United Writers Press\, 2021.  His latest book\, coauthored with Colonel Kevin Dougherty\, is entitled Leading Like the Swamp Fox: The Leadership Lessons of Francis Marion\, Casemate Publishers\, was just published in June. \nThe program will begin at 1:00 pm 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.

SUMMARY:The South Carolina Dispensary System and Prohibition
DESCRIPTION:Join Horry County Museum’s Technical Assistant Abigail Geedy on July 30th at 1 PM as she discusses the South Carolina Dispensary System and Prohibition in the state. By the early 1890s\, many assumed South Carolina was on the verge of declaring prohibition\, but in 1892 the dispensary system passed as an alternative. It wouldn’t be until multiple versions of the dispensary system fell out of favor that state prohibition was passed in 1915\, followed not far after by Federal Prohibition. This talk discusses an overview of the history and controversies of the dispensary system and state and federal prohibition with a focus on Horry County’s thoughts and reactions.\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 5 years before joining the Horry County Museum as a Technical Assistant. She has also previously worked as an intern or volunteer at the York County Heritage Trust in York\, PA\, the Pennsylvania State Museum in Harrisburg\, PA and McKissick Museum in Columbia\, SC.\nThe program will begin at 1:00 pm on July 30th 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.
