Abstract
After the people in the Charles Towne settlement moved to the site of present Charleston, by 1680, the original settlement site had come to be known as “Old Towne Plantation,” and this term continued to the present when our work began. The previous chapter discussed the work done by Johnny Miller regarding his discovery of an “Old Towne Plantation,” post-Charles Towne house ruin, when the site was owned by James Le Sade.
Was any military evidence found for the period after Charles Towne? What evidence for industry was found? Was the Old Towne Plantation house ruin found? Was evidence found for African Americans on the plantation?
