Marlboro

Marlboro County was formed in 1798 from the old Cheraws District. The county seat is Bennetsville. Cotton was a major agricultural product before the Civil War. Bennetsville was briefly occuped by Gen. Sherman towards the end of the Civil War. There are mineral springs in Blenheim. The mineral springs were discovered by James Spears in 1781 and are used today to produce ginger ale. (Blenheim Ginger Ale (fan site).) Blenheim was named for Blenheim Palace, residence of the Duke of Marlboro from whom the county derived it’s name.
