Publisher's Synopsis
South Carolina 1740 Jury List contains 2160 entries. In 1749, South Carolina's white population was estimated to be about 25,000 and using the 1790 household size of 5.5 persons there would be approximately 4,545 households. Ignoring duplicates, this book includes about 48% of the households in South Carolina at that time. Of course, counting the duplicate names would make the percent smaller.South Carolina State Motto(s): Dum spiro spero (Latin, 'While I breathe, I hope') Animis opibusque parati (Latin, 'Prepared in mind and resources')
