Description | Established in 1826 by Thomas William Pegues, The Camden Journal chronicled the highs and lows of Camden, South Carolina. From the formation of local militia groups to the arrival of the South Carolina Railroad, the newspaper documented significant events in the community. Ownership changes and mergers marked its journey, with Pegues briefly suspending publication in 1836 before its revival in 1839. Political and social views, particularly on states' rights and secession, shaped its content, leading to temporary suspensions during the Civil War. Daniel D. Hocott revived the paper in 1864 amidst wartime challenges, navigating title changes and shortages. Despite setbacks, The Camden Journal persisted, reflecting the resilience of its community. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1864 of this newspaper. |
