A South Carolina Family and Friends’ Historical Fishing Legacy, Since 1900, By Dr. Charles L. Singleton
Readers, in celebration of this incredibly special February 2021, American historian Carter Godwin Woodson (1875 – 1950), Father of African American history: Founder of Black History Month is remembered (Bing Photo). Therefore, our “History,” Mr. Woodson: “Some of the Drayton-Flood-Singleton Families’ loved ones, relatives, friends, and neighbors, for the last circa 121 years, fished in ponds, canals, waterways, channels, branches, roadside ditches, and various lakes and swamps.
Other locations possibly, were the MeadWestvaco Canals, and at the Ashley River, near Dorchester State Park, South Carolina.” --- Isreal T. Singleton. “Then again, some of our earlier family members, and even today, fished in Collection County, the state park area in Givhans, South Carolina.
And very often, many fished alongside the ditched parallel to US 17A, on the way to Cottageville, South Carolina: ‘good fishing.’ We, on many days went all the way to the Train Trestle Bridge on SC Highway 61, passed Middleton Place Garden.” --- Tillman U. Millhouse, Jr. “We fished in the Sandpit and everywhere; if we could walk, drive, or catch a ride!” ---John Thompson. “We often fished at the Highway: South Carolina Highway 61 Sandpits, various Swamps, and the MeadWestvaco Canals.” --- Alex Singleton. Alex was also the recipient of Wal-Mart Bass Fishing League (BFL), “Look for the Hook,” South Carolina Division, Lake Murray 5th Place in 2008. Enjoy our history, our heritage, our family stories.
