On the recent research trip that took me to Clemson University Library’s Special Collections and Archives, I also spent time at Old Stone Church near the Clemson campus, and the Old Stone Church cemetery in which Andrew Pickens and his wife Rebecca Calhoun are buried. As a previous posting has noted, when Andrew and Rebecca Calhoun Pickens moved over to Pendleton District, South Carolina, in 1786 from the part of Ninety-Six District that would eventually be Abbeville County, the Pickens family probably initially attended the Twenty-Three Mile or Richmond-Carmel Presbyterian church on the plantation of Andrew’s uncle Robert Pickens.
