Talk:Fort Hill (Clemson, South Carolina)

Post-1850 Ownership
I have noticed that this article, and the articles on Thomas Green Clemson, and Floride Calhoun contain possibly conflicting statements regarding the ownership of "Fort Hill" following John C. Calhoun's death in 1850. Any assistance in clearing up these discrepancies would be most appreciated. --TommyBoy (talk) 08:58, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

I have posted requests for assistance in resolving this matter at the Village Pump, and on the Talk pages of User:Bubbazen and User:KudzuVine. --TommyBoy (talk) 22:55, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

I have also contacted User:Caponer for assistance in resolving this matter--TommyBoy (talk) 15:15, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I have edited the page by providing some information on how Fort Hill passed from John C. Calhoun to Thomas Green Clemson. This version is from E. M. Lander's 1983 history of the Calhoun Family and Clemson. Alternative versions of this transfer exist. Many simplify the history by implying that it went from Calhoun to Clemson. See the South Carolina Encyclopedia for an example. KudzuVine (talk) 17:28, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I just added link to the NRHP inventory/nomination text for the site, which would probably also be pretty definitive about ownership up to the date of that text. doncram (talk) 03:31, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
