Marion
Originally known as Liberty County when it was formed in 1785 from the Georgetown District, this area was renamed Marion County after Revolutionary War General Francis Marion. The area became a seperate district in 1800. Part of Marion County was used in 1888 to form Florence County and in 1910 a portion was used to create Dillon County. During the Revolutionary War there were several skirmishes in the area between General Marion’s men and the British.
