Thousands of settlers flowed through this region like a river. It was part of the Great Wagon Road from the North and the Federal Road that carried travelers into the West. The diverse backgrounds of these individuals led to clashes and conflicts that played out over the landscape of the old South. Today, the character of Edgefield is captured for visitors in its downtown shopping district, countless historic sites, local eateries, and a thriving artisan community. Come explore Edgefield, the Gateway of Southern History!
Dear Everyone,
We are continuing to climb in case counts here in Edgefield County. We currently have 108 active cases in the county. These numbers are following the trends that we are seeing both here in South Carolina and across the nation. The highest numbers remain down in the 29860 zip code with 67 active cases. Many of the cases are attributed to those gatherings that have not followed the recommended guidelines.
The county received a donated shipment of liquid hand sanitizer. If you are interested in picking some up for your organization please let me know.
With the holiday upon us please stay safe. Wear masks when out, social distance and wash your hands regularly.
Thank you,
Suzy Spurgeon, Director Edgefield County EMA
