Near this point stood the southwest corner of Wadboo Barony, a 12,000-acre tract about 4 miles square granted in 1683 to James Colleton, son of an original Lord Proprietor, as part of the land due him as a landgrave of Carolina. During the Revolution, Colleton's heirs were Loyalists, and the Barony was confiscated, divided, and sold to Patriot citizens.
