SUMMARY:The Laurens County Battles of Fort Williams: The Most Contested Site in the American Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Nestled between Mountville\, Cross Hill\, and Newberry County\, near a modest creek\, lies the historic location of Fort Williams. Known as the most contested site in America during the American Revolution\, Fort Williams changed hands six times throughout the conflict. This significant site\, hidden in Laurens County’s landscape\, holds a pivotal place in the history of the Southern Campaign of the Revolutionary War. \nHistorian and battlefield preservationist Durant Ashmore will shed light on this crucial chapter in American history during a special presentation on Tuesday\, September 10\, at 7:00 pm at the Laurens County Museum\, located at 116 South Public Square\, Laurens\, SC. The public is warmly invited to attend. Museum members and those 18 years old and under can enjoy the event free of charge\, while others are encouraged to make a suggested donation of $5 to support the museum’s ongoing efforts. \nAshmore highlights the elusive nature of Fort Williams’ exact location. Despite the ambiguity\, General James Williams’ biography\, Backcountry Revolutionary by Will Graves\, chronicles the fort’s role in the war. James Williams\, a prominent figure in the Southern Campaign\, was a pioneer in the Ninety Six District\, a miller\, and a member of the Provisional Assembly before the war. His valor and leadership on the battlefield were instrumental\, though he ultimately fell at the Battle of Kings Mountain. \nThe Laurens County Museum’s exhibit hall is open to the public Tuesday through Saturday\, from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. For more information on museum membership\, volunteer opportunities\, or upcoming programs\, please contact the museum at (864) 681-3678\, visit their website at LaurensCountyMuseum.org\, or check their Facebook page.

SUMMARY:“Rosemont to Mount Vernon“ Exhibit Opening and Celebration August 15 at the Laurens County Museum
DESCRIPTION:Against all odds and over 165 years ago\, Ann Pamela Cunningham of Waterloo\, SC\, started the association that saved Mount Vernon\, home of the first United States President George Washington.  Thursday\, August 15\, at 2:00 pm\, the Laurens County Museum and the Rosemont Preservation Society will celebrate her 208th birthday and the opening of phase one of the “Rosemont to Mount Vernon” Exhibit at the Laurens County Museum\, 116 South Public Square\, Laurens\, SC.  Refreshments will be served. The celebration is free and open to the public.\nThe Mount Vernon Ladies Association began raising funds to purchase the dilapidated mansion on the banks of the Potomac River in 1852 at their first meeting in Cross Hill\, SC\, at Liberty Springs Presbyterian Church.  The  exorbitant (at the time) price for purchase was $200\,000.  In addition\, Washington’s nephew\, John Washington\, owned Mount Vernon at the time and did not want to sell to an association of women!  The ladies who were led by Ann Pamela Cunningham\, persisted with much hard work\,  exceptional organization and persuasion skills\, eventually succeeded in purchasing Mount Vernon in 1859.  The restoration work began immediately\, and because of Ann Pamela’s vision\, Mount Vernon is the national treasure we know today.\nThe mansion is still owned by the Mount Vernon Ladies Association.  The grounds of Rosemont Plantation in Waterloo are now owned by the Rosemont Preservation Society.  The Society is working to preserve the gardens and land of the First Lady of preservation in the United States\, Ann Pamela Cunningham.\nCome to the Laurens County Museum on August 15 to enjoy period music\, birthday refreshments\, and learn more about this fascinating daughter of Laurens County.  For more information\, call (864) 681-3678\, or visit Facebook or LaurensCountyMuseum.org.  Museum hours are Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 am until 3:00 pm.

SUMMARY:Laurens County Museum to Host a Lunch and Learn About the Fascinating Life of William Hix
DESCRIPTION:Come join the Laurens County Museum for a captivating Lunch-and-Learn presentation on William Preston Hix\, taking place on Tuesday\, April 30\, at Noon. Historian\, author\, and esteemed researcher Laura Elliott from Gadsden\, Alabama\, will delve into the life of Laurens County native William Hix\, a notable figure who\, along with his three brothers\, served during the Civil War. Hix became renowned as an artist and photographer\, among other pursuits. Admission to the lecture is free for museum members\, and non-members are encouraged to contribute a suggested donation of $5. The museum is conveniently located at 116 South Public Square\, Laurens\, SC. All are welcome to attend; simply bring your lunch and be prepared to learn! \nWilliam Hix’s artwork can be admired at State Houses in South Carolina and Virginia. Elliott recently acquired one of his paintings depicting a Columbia\, SC doctor at an auction in Laurens\, which will be showcased during the event. \nAccording to Mrs. Elliott\, “William Preston Hix is arguably one of Laurens’ most significant figures from the 19th Century\, yet his important contributions remain largely unknown. He was a brilliant\, talented individual bursting with potential\, a true artistic genius. Although overshadowed in the photography realm\, Hix eventually earned well-deserved recognition as an artist\, albeit belatedly. In business\, he initially shone brightly until he faced considerable adversity at the hands of a magnate. Hix’s life was a tapestry of highs and lows: skill and aptitude\, fortune and misfortune\, triumph and tragedy\, riches to rags – and back again. Was Hix simply impatient\, an underachiever\, or inherently unlucky? The reality is far more nuanced.” \nJoin us in welcoming Mrs. Elliott on April 30th. For further details\, please contact (864) 681-3678\, or visit the museum on Facebook or at LaurensCountyMuseum.org.

SUMMARY:LC Museum Lecture – Viciousness in the Revolutionary War
DESCRIPTION:Historian and battlefield preservationist Durant Ashmore will hold nothing back in the telling of what actually happened in the battles and skirmishes of the Revolutionary War on Tuesday\, January 16\, 2024\, at 7:00 pm at the Laurens County Museum.  “The Viciousness in the Revolutionary War” is the title of the next talk in the Revolutionary War Lecture Series.  This lecture will be for adults only due to the graphic nature of the topic.\nAshmore said of the lecture\, “In many ways\, the Revolutionary War has been romanticized.  I assure you that war was anything but romantic.  In every lecture I have ever given\, and as many gory details as I have listed\, believe it or not\, I have held back significant details.  In this lecture I will not be holding back.  I think this lecture will give a more accurate portrayal of what really happened.”\nThis lecture is co-sponsored by the Laurens County Revolutionary War 250th Committee and the Laurens County Museum.  There is a $5 suggested donation for those not members of the museum. There is not a fee for Laurens County Museum members.\nThe Laurens County Museum is located at 116 South Public Square\, Laurens\, SC\, 29360.
