- "First shape". Formed as a county in
1789 as part of 96

In 1826, ceased to be and became Anderson County and Pickens County
(which later was divided
into Pickens and Oconee counties). AniMap
note.
- Horse Shoe Bend in Chauga River, near Westminster in Oconee Co. SC. Why
my ancestor was called "Horse Shoe Robertson. Follow the road from the
"pin" about an inch s.w. It is a wonder he wasn't called "Hairpin
Robertson"! He lived there from about 1790 to 1822. His house (at the
pin) still stands and is in use. We build 'em good!
