EDGEFIELD COUNTY COURT HOUSE
Edgefield, s. C.
Erected in 1839 from plans by Robert Mills, de-
signer of the Washington Monument. The
grounds and court room have been the scene
of cultural, political and patriotic gatherings
significant to the entire state. A granite marker
in the city square bears the names of ten gov-
ernors and five lieutenant governors who were
native to or residents of Edgefield County. The
shaft to Confederate Dead is one of the early
memorials of the state to commemorate the
Southern Cause.
