South Carolina Real Estate > McClellanville:
|
History & General Info
The tiny town of McClellanville was founded by rice farmers in 1822 after a hurricane destroyed their summer camp at the mouth of the Santee River. The town, which is located on Jeremy Creek, later became a year-round residence for the farmers' descendants. Today, McClellanville is home to a fleet of shrimp boats, and commercial fishing has replaced agriculture as the top economic industry.

The neighboring community of Awendaw developed as part of the Seewee Barony (later called the Awendaw Barony) in 1709. The Barony, a 12,000-acre plantation, was visited by George Washington during his southern tour in 1791. Today, homes in Awendaw are scattered along Highway 17, with new subdivisions growing along the Intracoastal Waterway. Developing downtown Awendaw, which includes the town hall and fire station, is on Seewee and Maxville Roads, just east of Highway 17.
