Robert Conway came to this area from Charleston before 1790. He became a
large landholder and public official, serving six terms in the South Carolina
General Assembly. He was a veteran of the American Revolution, and in 1806
succeeded Peter Horry as Brigadier of the Sixth South Carolina Brigade. Conway
died in Georgetown in 1823, at age seventy. ~ text of marker
