So far as is known there is no complete, connected and full history of the Town of Summerville, and though it would be impossible in an article, limited as this must necessarily be, to attempt such a history, I shall endeavor to set forth in a more or less connected narrative, such facts and references as I have been able to gather in the limited time at my disposal. They will thus be preserved and possibly, as a nucleus, will aid some future chronicler in the preparation of a more pretentious History.
