Edgefield County Historical Society
The Edgefield County Historical Society, founded in 1939, is one of the oldest county historical societies in South Carolina, dedicated to preserving and promoting the rich history of Edgefield County. Over its eight decades, the Society has published numerous scholarly materials and organized major events, including historical home tours and conferences, while fostering the restoration of historic structures and sites.
The Society operates three museums: the Joanne T. Rainsford Discovery Center, the Magnolia Dale House Museum, and Horn's Creek Church Museum. The Discovery Center also features the William Miller Bouknight Theatre, which hosts theatrical and musical performances, as well as lectures throughout the year, welcoming anyone interested in learning more about Edgefield's history.
