Pictured
is Table Rock and Marietta, South Carolina. In 1791, the state
legislature established Washington District, an area which is composed
of present-day Greenville, Anderson, Pickens and Oconee counties. In
1798, Washington District was divided into Greenville and Pendleton
Districts. Pendleton District was composed of what later became
Anderson, Oconee, and Pickens. Due to the growing population and poor
transportation facilities in the Pendleton District, in 1826, the
legislature divided it into a lower part known as Anderson District and
an upper part called Pickens District. This land which included all of
the present day Oconee and Pickens Counties. Pickens District was named
for the American Revolutionary was hero, General Andrew Pickens.
Originally the own of Pickens was located in the center of the district
on the western bank of the Keowee River. This location is now called Old Pickens. In 1868, the Pickens District was divided into Oconee and Pickens Counties and a town of Pickens (county seat) was begun. Pickens County Wills, Transcripts Available to Members of South Carolina Pioneers
