The Land called Chicora and related materials, 1933-1963.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/25995123

The Land Called Chicora and Related Materials series is composed of research notes, correspondence, and manuscript drafts relating to Paul Quattlebaum's book, The Land Called Chicora. This series also contains material dealing with general South Carolina history as well as genealogically-related correspondence. The book details early European exploration and abortive attempts at settlement along the South Carolina coast prior to the coming of the English in 1670. In writing this book Quattlebaum compiled research from libraries and archives in North America and Europe. He maintained extensive correspondence with various historians, curators, archivists, and antiquarians. As his reputation as a local historian grew, Quattlebaum received numerous genealogical inquiries pertaining to South Carolina and Horry County. In some instances this genealogical correspondence relates to individuals in the Horry County Families series in the Quattlebaum papers. Well known correspondents in the Chicora series include A.M. Huntington, Bernard Baruch, and South Carolina historians Robert Meriwether, Chapman J. Milling, and A.S. Salley.
