Planning a genealogy adventure

Darlington to Columbia to Abbeville: http://goo.gl/maps/kgPbN

     OK, Baskin family, I'm planning something super fun! My friend is moving back to South Carolina this month, and I'm planning to go visit her in the Spring (I think).  Since I'll already be out that way, I've convinced her to join me in a little genealogy road tripping to the State Archives in Columbia (where I know there is a ton of material waiting for me) and then on to Abbeville to search for the places good old Capt. William Baskin and his family roamed and lived and fought.  Maybe I'll even find some cool graves...

   Anyway, wanted to let you all know that although I'm focusing more on other branches of the family now and doing work for my client, I'm still always on the lookout for any good Baskin info.  Of course I'll share it all here with you as soon as I can!

Wish me luck!
