Hi, my name is Dena
and I'm your host for Newberry County Trails. My father's family
originated and still live in Newberry County. My surnames are:
Thomasson, DeHardt, Wilson, Suber, Dickert.
Newberry County was formed in 1785 as
a part of Ninety Six District, with the county seat in the town of
Newberry. The community was named for Capt. John Newberry,
Revolutionary War officer. This part of the country was settled
largely by Scotch-Irish, English, and German immigrants in the
mid-1700's. The German region was given the name Dutch Fork. This
title is still carried to this day. Historians John Belton O'Neall
(1795-1863) and David Duncan Wallace (1874-1951) were Newberry
County natives, as was governor and U. S. Senator Coleman L. Blease
(1868-1942).

Please understand
that, while I do have a genealogical connection to Newberry County,
I am not a resident there. I do not have records or data with which I
could supply you information about your ancestors. Further, I cannot do
research on your behalf.
My "job" as an unpaid County Host volunteer,
is to update this web site with new information as often as time
permits.
