| OF INTEREST: Keith Riley states: "During
the past
years, I have collected over five hundred (500) Indian arrowheads, some
pottery and other artifacts, many of which were found in the immediate
area. The arrowheads range in size from about 1 inch to about 3
inches
long. I estimate that these artifacts are at least two hundred and
fifty
(250) years old. I have, also, done some research in trying to
determine
the name of the tribe or tribes who inhabited this area, but have been
unsuccessful thus far. We truly believe this section was one of
the
Indian's "Happy Hunting Grounds."
re: ROLL OF CONFEDERATE VETERANS, Company C., 24th
Regiment
S.C.V., which was recruited and organized in the upper part of St.
George's
Parish by Hon. Morgan T. Appleby in the latter part of the year of
1861.
