Names of owners may not be complete. Farming has always been the mainstay of this rural section, with cotton as king before the Civil War. Rice was planted in earlier years, but was not planted in recent times. Tobacco, corn, and soybeans are the big money crops of 1979. Many local farmers also have large swine operations.
Some farms still have cattle and horses which can be seen grazing lazily on the green pasturelands.
In more recent years some truck farming has been attempted, with good success. In the early years of our community, about 1900, the U. S. Post office was at Justice, S. C., located on land owned and operated by W. Boyd Jones, near Chinners Swamp and a few hundred yards off Jones Road. This was the first known U. S. Post Office. A rumor has it that one may have been at a place called Joppa or that Justice may have been called Joppa. I can find no one who remembers anything about this and nothing to document it.
