Old St. David's Church:
Church St. (c. 1770)
The last Anglican or "state" church built in South Carolina
under King George III. The church was used by the Americans and
the British during the Revolution, and later by both the Confederate
and Union armies. There are soldiers from every American War buried
in the cemetery. The steeple and vestibule were added in 1826. Open
by appointment. Contact the Cheraw Visitors Bureau.
Confederate Monument:
Cemetery, Old St. David's (c. 1867)
The first monument ever erected in memory of those who had fallen
in the Confederate War. The original inscription did not mention
Confederate soldiers directly since Union forces still occupied
the area.
