Historic Resources of St Helena Island c 1740-c 1935 MPS



The limits of the St Helena Island complex, consisting of St Helena, Datha, Warsaw, Polawana and Pine Islands.

The sea islands of South Carolina, from Pawleys Island in the north to Daufuskie Island in the south, are rich in natural, cultural, and historic resources. One of the largest of these, St Helena Island, has one of the most significant and most diverse collections of surviving historic and cultural resources in the South Carolina lowcountry. Although many physical evidences of St. Helena's history have disappeared due to both the passage of time and modern development along the coast, there are still many resources which help to illustrate the growth and development of St Helena Island from c 1740 to c 1935. These extant resources include archaeological sites, tabby ruins, plantation houses and other residences, commercial buildings, praise houses, and military installations. Due to St Helena's prominent role in the educational, social, and economic development of blacks emancipated during the Civil War and to the island's relative isolation until the twentieth century, its historic resources are unique. The most intact of the properties and features are included in this multiple property submission. - NPS
