MORE INFORTMATION on Graham's Farm
- Home of the Swamp Fox- Where Francis Marion brought British prisoners and staged attacks in 1780.

Graham's Historic Farm has been in the family since William Graham founded it in 1738. At the time of the Revolution, his grandson, Hugh Graham, who served under Francis Marion owned the farm with his father Nielson. British prisoners were brought to Hugh's farm after the battle of Tearcoat on their way to General Harrington in Cheraw.

Hugh's uncle, John Graham was a Captain in the 2nd South Carolina Regiment and in the SC militia under Major Francis Marion. Documents show Captain John Graham, Major Francis Marion, and Colonel William Moultrie marched from Georgetown district with the 2nd SC Regiment to build a fort out of sand and palmetto trees. This fort later became known as Fort Moultrie. The successful defense of Charleston in late June 1776 gave the founding fathers the courage to send out the Declaration of Independence on July 4th. Hugh's brothers William and Arthur Graham also served in the Continental Army.  Both died from injuries sustained in the war.

Original documents show that the farm actively supplied food for the Continental Army during the war, and was also used as a stop-over camp site for Patriot forces, including Francis Marion's brigade of partisans and captured British troops. Graham's farm played an important role in support of Patriot forces during the "dark days" of the southern campaign at significant risk to the family.

The farm remains with the Graham family today. All of the period buildings have been lost to time, but the farmland itself remains in active use, and the site is largely untouched by modern intrusions.
