We have recently identified a burial, thought to be of an African American, in the midst of an early-eighteenth century plantation slave settlement in the coastal plain of South Carolina. I am not familiar with any reported instances of burials being identified in the settlement area and would appreciate any information others might have on similar parallels. Please realize, this is not a cemetery. It is simply one isolated burial in the immediate area of the slave settlement or street. Since I imagine that this isn't of special interest to the list in general, please feel free to contact me directly at [log in to unmask] Thanks in advance. Mike Trinkley Chicora Foundation, Inc.
