James Island Rich with History

During the 19th century, plantations were built on James Island, along with the development of the village of Secessionville, a summer retreat for plantation owners. Indigo, cotton & rice were cultivated and the raising of beef cattle was quite lucrative. Numerous battle sites and historic buildings, including former slave quarters are still here today.

The Civil War began on James Island the morning of April 12, 1861. The Confederate Forces at Fort Johnson fired upon the Union occupied Fort Sumter. Both forts were located on the island’s northern shore. Much of the fighting in the Charleston area during the remaining years of the Civil War occurred on James Island and it’s close neighbor, Morris Island, as Union troops tried to invade Charleston from the south from their base at Folly Beach.

After the war, the large plantations were no longer working and small farms began to be the norm. This remained true until the 1960’s. The opening of the James Island Expressway or James Island Connector in 1993 made the island much more accessible and a prime location for development.
