First Presbyterian Church (Columbia, South Carolina)

The First Presbyterian Church is a historic church building in Columbia, South Carolina, United States. Constructed in 1854, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 25, 1971. History Although the first meetings of what would become the First Presbyterian Church were held in 1795, the congregation did not have a building of its own until 1813, having met in the South Carolina State House and on the campus of the South Carolina College until then. In 1813, the South Carolina Legislature incorporated the church as the "First Presbyterian Church of the Town of Columbia" The current site of the church was a shared cemetery with the local Episcopal congregation from 1794 to 1813. The legislature gave the cemetery and other lands to be shared between the Episcopalians and the Presbyterians. A local legend says that First Presbyterian and the now-nearby Trinity Episcopal Cathedral drew lots to determine which congregation would get what lot, with First Presbyterian receiving the cemetery, located at the corner of Lady and Marion Streets. The 1813 building still exists, and is now known as Jackson Hall. A new, larger English Gothic structure was built in 1853. Though spared the torch during Sherman's march to the sea, the building's original 180-foot spire was destroyed in an 1875 hurricane, and rebuilt in 1888. The spire was again damaged in a 1910 fire, and rebuilt to be eight feet taller. A remodeling in 1925 increased the capacity of the building to 1,250 from 800, increasing the length of the building by 40 feet. At the same time, classrooms were built at the sides, a choir loft added in the rear, and the organ loft rebuilt. The architect of the remodeling project was R. H. Hunt of Chattanooga, Tennessee. Formerly a member of the Presbyterian Church in the United States, it seceded in 1983 and joined the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church. Former pastors include James Henley Thornwell, Benjamin Morgan Palmer, John Girardeau, Sinclair Ferguson, and Derek Thomas. The current senior minister is Dr. Neil Stewart. There are quite a few notable people buried in the church's cemetery. Among them are Henry William de Saussure, second director of the United States Mint; Jonathan Maxcy, the first president of South Carolina College; and Martha Thomas Fitzgerald, the first woman elected in a general election to the South Carolina House of Representatives.

Florence Crittenton Home (Charleston, South Carolina)

The Florence Crittenton Home is an institution for the support of unwed mothers at 19 St. Margaret St. in Charleston, South Carolina that is on the National Register of Historic Places. History The first Florence Crittenton Home in Charleston opened on October 3, 1899, at 20 Ashton St. Later it was at 63 Washington St. In 1925, the Florence Crittenton Home closed because its location at 63 Washington St. was condemned for fire risk. The plans for a new location had already started; L.D. Long Construction Co. was awarded the construction contract for a new building in December 1923. John D. Newcomer was the architect. Claudia Tharin was the leader of the Charleston branch and bought land on St. Margaret St. where she began having a new facility built; she lacked the money for the entire project and paid for new phases of the construction as she raised new money. 19 St. Margaret Street location The building housed medical areas and residential areas for the mothers and the staff of the facility. Common rooms, a chapel, a kitchen, a laundry, and a dining room were on the first floor with residential rooms on the second floor. The building finally opened in April 1932—nine years after the facility on Washington St. was forced to close. The building cost $65,000 when it was completed in 1932. A chapel was dedicated a month after the opening of the Home. In 1964, a new, stand-alone chapel was added in a new building next to the main building. In 1997, the building was nominated for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places. In August 1999, a proposal was made to include the Home (along with many other National Register properties outside of the historic district) in the jurisdiction of the Board of Architectural Review. The Charleston Planning Commission approved the rezoning in October 1999. In December 1999, City Council created the Landmark Overlay Zone to protect historic buildings outside the traditional jurisdiction of the Board of Architectural Review and included the Home in the new overlay zone.

Florence Regional Airport

Der Florence Regional Airport (IATA-Code: FLO, ICAO-Code: KFLO) ist ein öffentlicher Flughafen, 5 km östlich von Florence, im US-Bundesstaat South Carolina. Er hat zwei Asphaltpisten, wird jedoch nur von American Eagle mit dem Charlotte Douglas International Airport verbunden. Geschichte Der Regionalflughafen stammt ursprünglich aus dem Jahr 1928, als lokale Einwohner 300 Hektar an Land ankauften, um darauf den ersten Flughafen in der Umgebung bauen zu können. Bereits im folgenden Jahr konnte die erste Maschine auf diesem landen. 1931 wurde der Flughafen Teil des Postnetzwerks des United States Postal Service. Mit dem Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkriegs benutzte die Third Air Force der United States Air Force den Flugplatz als Trainingsbasis und erweiterte dabei das Grundstück. 1942 war die 52. Pursuit Group in Florence stationiert und trainierte dort mit Flugzeugen vom Typ Bell P-39 und Curtiss P-40. Nachdem die Einheit im April 1942 nach North Carolina beordert wurde, war der Flughafen weiterhin als Ausbildungsstelle für Truppentransportgruppen im Einsatz. Er wurde zu einer Ausbildungsstätte für die Nachbesetzung von Kampfbesatzungen, wobei Maschinen vom Typ A-20 Havoc verwendet wurden. 1945 wurde das Gelände an die First Air Force übergeben. Nach Kriegsende wurde der Flughafen zurück an die Stadt Florence übergeben, welche diesen mit dem Florence County teilte. Von 1948 bis 1965 wurde er von den Eastern Air Lines bedient und bis 1981 flog ebenfalls Piedmont Airlines Florence an. Der Betrieb des Flughafens wurde 1999 der Pee Dee Regional Airport Authority übertragen. Die Behörde bestand aus neun Vertretern des Pee Dee Regional Airport District, zu dem die Stadt Florence sowie die Landkreise Florence, Dillon und Marion gehören. Fluggesellschaften und Ziele Der Flughafen wird von American Eagle bedient. Im Jahr 2025 bediente er ungefähr 46.120 Passagiere, womit er erstmals wieder mehr Kunden hinzugewann. Dennoch verlor er 2026 einen der drei täglichen Flüge nach Charlotte, womit es nur noch zwei pro Tag gibt.

Fountain Fox Beattie House

The Fountain Fox Beattie House, the home of Greenville Woman's Club from 1950 to 2014, is a historic house in Greenville, South Carolina. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. History The house was built c. 1834 on East North Street by merchant and banker Fountain Fox Beattie for his bride, Emily Edgeworth. Originally the house had a simple design, two rooms on each floor with a separate kitchen behind the house. Beattie prospered even during Reconstruction, and generations of his family continued to live in the house well into the 20th century. Probably in the 1880s, the Beatties added one-story wings and an elaborately columned porch with Italianate brackets. After the death of Mrs. John Beattie in 1938, the family rented out the house. In 1946, when the house stood in the way of street widening and was slated for demolition, Greenville club women asked the city to buy and preserve the house as their meeting place. The house was moved to a new street, named Beattie Place, and rented to the Woman's Club for a dollar a year. When Beattie Place also became a busy thoroughfare, the house was moved once again in 1983 to a site off Bennett Street. In 2014, citing declining membership, the Greenville Woman's Club disbanded, and ownership of the historic house reverted to the city of Greenville. The city negotiated with Black Knight International, a development group owned by Marc Player, son of professional golfer Gary Player, which planned to repurpose the building into office space. After Black Knight declined to buy the house, the city agreed to sell the house (with a preservation easement) to Greenvillians Ryan and Jori Magg, who reconvert meeting and event space back into living area. Architecture The two-story structure has one-story wings. The roof on the central portion is flat except for a small central gable. The wings have a flat, balustraded roof. There is a one-story piazza supported by six pairs of columns. These form three large and two smaller arches. The main entrance is a set of double doors. References
Francis Marion National Forest

The Francis Marion National Forest is located north of Charleston, South Carolina. It is named for revolutionary war hero Francis Marion, who was known to the British as the Swamp Fox. It lies entirely within the Middle Atlantic coastal forests ecoregion. The park is also entirely in the Subtropical coniferous forest. This National Forest is contained entirely in the counties of Charleston and Berkeley and is 263,904 acres (1,070 km2) in size. The forest contains the towns of Awendaw, Huger, Jamestown, and McClellanville. Charleston provides emergency services to the southeastern portions of the forest. Forest headquarters are located in Columbia, together with those of Sumter National Forest. There are local ranger district offices located in Cordesville. In 1989, the forest was nearly destroyed by Hurricane Hugo; only the young growth survived the storm and its aftermath. Today, most trees in the forest do not predate this hurricane. The forest is a multiple use area. Recreation opportunities include campsites, rifle ranges, boat ramps, and several trails for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, including the Palmetto Trail, as well as off-road motorcycling and ATV riding specifically at the Wambaw Cycle Trailhead. (OHV) The Forest Service also administers wilderness areas, experimental forests, timber production, and protection and management of wildlife and the watershed. Wilderness areas There are four officially designated wilderness areas lying within Francis Marion National Forest that are part of the National Wilderness Preservation System.

Catawba

Catawba-folket (også benævnt Issa eller Esaw, men oftest Iswa) er et folk, der er anerkendt som sådan af USA's centralregering under navnet Catawba Indian Nation. De bor i det sydøstlige USA langs grænsen mellem North- og South Carolina. Catawba'erne blev engang betragtet som en af de mest magtfulde blandt de østlige siouxstammer. De indledte deres bosættelse i området midt i det 17. århundrede, men det debatteres, hvor catawbafolket boede før europæernes bosættelse, selv om det er almindelig antaget, at de kom fra egnene omkring og sydøst for De store søer. Da de mest levede af agerbrug, var catawba'erne venligt sindede over for de første europæiske kolonister. Derimod lå de i næsten konstant krig med irokeserne, shawneeerne, delawarerne, cherokeerne og andre folk i Ohiodalen. Trods deres ringe antal, deltog catawbaer i den amerikanske befrielseskrig sammen med andre amerikanske oprørere i kampe mod briterne bl.a. i Slaget ved Guilford Court House. Selv om man værdsatte deres bidrag til oprøret i South Carolina, fortsatte deres antal og landområde med at svinde ind, mens nybyggerne rykkede ind mellem dem. Selv om folket bestod af ca. 5.000 personer, der boede i North- og South Carolina før oprøret mod briterne, svækkede konstant krig og børnekopper i et omfang, så de blev nødt til at udleje dele af deres reservat i 1826 og resten i 1840. North Carolina afviste at tildele dem land, men South Carolina stillede 800 acres (3.2 km²) til rådighed. Her bor catawbafolket i dag. I 2006 var der ca. 2.600 catawba'er tilbage. De fleste bor i South Carolina, men der er små grupper i Oklahoma, Colorado og andre stater. Catawba statsreservatet, der ligger i York County, South Carolina, havde en befolkning på 124 (i 1990). Catawba-sproget, som man nu er ved at genoplive, er en del af Sioux-Catawba sprogfamilien. Folket blev officielt anerkendt af staten North Carolina i 1993. Det hovedkvarter ligger i Rock Hill, South Carolina. Folkets navn indgår i Catawba River, Catawba County, Catawba College og Rhododendron catawbiense. Note
Catobas

Les Catobas (en américain, Catawba, également appelés Issa ou Esaw) sont une Nation amérindienne qui vivait à l'origine dans le sud-est des États-Unis, le long de la frontière entre la Caroline du Nord et la Caroline du Sud. Malgré leur petit nombre, ils servirent en tant que Patriots durant la guerre d'indépendance des États-Unis, combattant aux côtés d'autres révolutionnaires américains contre les Britanniques au cours de batailles telles que la bataille de Guilford Court House. Bien que leur contribution à la Révolution fut grandement appréciée en Caroline du Sud, la population et le territoire des Catobas continua à décliner alors que les Américains blancs prospéraient autour d'eux. En 1996, il restait environ 1 400 Catobas, essentiellement en Caroline du Sud, et quelques groupes moins nombreux en Oklahoma, au Colorado et ailleurs. La Réserve d'État Catoba, située dans le comté de York en Caroline du Sud accueillait 124 personnes en 1990. La langue catobane, qui est en cours de renaissance, fait partie des langues siouanes. De nos jours, la plupart des Catobas sont mormons. La rivière Catawba tire son nom de cette tribu. Notes et références Annexes Bibliographie (en) Thomas J.

Catawbas

Os Catawba, também conhecidos como Issa, Essa ou Iswä, mas mais comumente Iswa (Catawba: Ye Iswąą - "povo do rio"), são uma tribo federalmente reconhecida dos povos nativos norte-americanos, conhecida como a Nação Indígena Catawba. Atualmente suas terras estão localizadas na Carolina do Sul, no rio Catawba, perto da cidade de Rock Hill. Seu território também já se estendeu até a Carolina do Norte, estado onde eles ainda possuem direito legal a algumas parcelas de terras. Eles já foram considerados uma das tribos mais poderosas do sudeste da Carolina do Sul, bem como uma das tribos mais poderosas do sul como um todo, tendo se fundido com outras tribos menores à medida que teve contato com os povos colonizadores da região. Os Catawba estavam entre as tribos da região da costa leste dos Estados Unidos que fizeram alianças seletivas com alguns dos primeiros colonos europeus, quando esses colonos concordaram em ajudá-los em seus conflitos com outras tribos, como os Iroqueses, os Cherokees, os Shawnees, Delaware e vários membros dos Algonquians da região dos Grandes Lagos, aliados dos franceses. Durante a Guerra Revolucionária Americana, os Catawba apoiaram os colonos americanos contra os britânicos, servindo como batedores. Dizimados por epidemias coloniais de varíola, guerras e rupturas culturais, os Catawba diminuíram acentuadamente em número no final do século XVIII e no século XIX. Alguns Catawba continuaram a viver em suas terras natais na Carolina do Sul, enquanto outros se juntaram aos Choctaw e aos Cherokees, pelo menos temporariamente. Extinta como tribo pelo governo federal em 1959, a Nação Indígena Catawba teve que se reorganizar para reafirmar sua soberania e direitos de tratados. Em 1973, eles estabeleceram seu registro tribal e iniciaram o processo de recuperação do reconhecimento federal. Em 1993, seu reconhecimento federal foi restabelecido, juntamente com um acordo de US$ 50 milhões do governo federal e do estado da Carolina do Sul por suas antigas reivindicações de terras. A tribo também foi oficialmente reconhecida pelo estado da Carolina do Sul em 1993. Sua sede fica em Rock Hill, Carolina do Sul. A partir de 2006, a população da Nação Catawba aumentou para cerca de 2.600, e em 2012 ultrapassou a marca de 3.000 indivíduos, a maioria na Carolina do Sul, com grupos menores em Oklahoma, Colorado, Ohio e outros lugares. A língua Catawba, que está sendo revivida, faz parte da família Siouan (ramo Catawba). Referências
