Thomas Sumter's Store

About 1765-1767 Thomas Sumter, future hero of the American Revolution, kept a country store near this spot where the stream of colonial traffic to the Up Country divided in the fork where the Nelson's Ferry Road branched off from the Road to Congarees.

Marker can be reached from Old Number Six Highway (State Highway 6 / 45) near Nicholas Drive, on the right when traveling west.
