Trail of History - York, SC
On this Trail of History, we explore the history of York, a small town in the Carolina Piedmont with one of South Carolina’s largest historic districts. You’ll meet a baker who bought a historic building downtown as well as a long-time resident who lives in a hotel that’s more than 150 years old. We’ll also take look at some of the architecture that adds to York’s charm, and examine how the Revolutionary War and the Civil War impacted this area.

The Roots of Un-Civil War - The 250th Anniversary of Cornstalk's Campaign - by Douglas McClure Wood
Douglas McClure Wood presented The Roots of Un-civil War: The 250th Anniversary of Cornstalk's Campaign on Thursday, March 14, 2013, in the Archives and History Library at the Culture Center, State Capitol Complex in Charleston.
The Shawnee warrior Cornstalk was relatively unknown to European Americans in 1763 when he burst onto the stage of history as the leader of one of the most effective campaigns against the British colonies during Pontiac's War. A hero to the Shawnee and a fearsome foe to Virginians, Cornstalk was a brilliant military strategist whose coalition-building efforts, strategic planning, campaign coordination and battle tactics were followed 50 years later by another Shawnee, Tecumseh.
Cornstalk's generation of Shawnee warriors first melded American Indian tactics with European tactics to forge a powerful military alliance that nearly defeated the British. The Virginia frontiersmen's response to Cornstalk's warfare was to become more like the enemy in order to fight fire with fire. These learned skills became useful to western Virginians in subsequent wars, including the Civil War, when small units of home guards and bushwhackers used similar skills to thwart the efforts of invading enemy armies.
In his presentation, Wood will focus on Cornstalk's 1763 campaign in the context of the larger war waged by Pontiac. He will discuss the influence of the campaign on later Shawnee-Virginian relations and on the evolution of Virginian fighting forces.
Wood worked as an aquatic biologist and ecologist for 33 years before retiring from the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection in 2011. Since his graduation from West Virginia University in 1977 with a degree in Wildlife Management, he has researched 18th-century middle Appalachian cultures, with a particular focus on American Indian cultures of the Ohio Valley region. He also is a living history character with the Humanities Council's History Alive! program, currently portraying Ostenaco, a Cherokee military leader who fought for three years against the French during the French and Indian War.

South Carolina
South Carolina /ˌsaʊθ kærəˈlaɪnə/ is a state in the Southeastern United States. It is bordered to the north by North Carolina; to the south and west by Georgia, located across the Savannah River; and to the east by the Atlantic Ocean. Originally part of the Province of Carolina, the Province of South Carolina became a slave society after rice and indigo became established as commodity crops, and from 1708, a majority of the population were slaves, many born in Africa. It was the first of the 13 colonies that declared independence from the British Crown during the American Revolution.
South Carolina was the first state to ratify the Articles of Confederation, and the 8th state to ratify the US Constitution on May 23, 1788. South Carolina later became the first state to vote to secede from the Union which it did on December 20, 1860. It was readmitted to the United States on June 25, 1868.
