Hamburg was in Edgefield County during your time period.  It is presently
located down river from North Augusta, SC on the opposite side of US Highway
#1....Augusta Concret Block and TTX Hamburg Industries are presently located
on the spot where the old town sat near the river.  This was the ending
point of the "Best Friend Express" the first railroad from Charleston to the
Savannah River (Hamburg).  It was once a very vibrant town of settlers and
an important site.....now it is nothing but commercial holdings.

Does anyone know how to find out in which coulnty Hamburg, SC would have
been in in 1850?  I assumed Edgefield but cannot find the family.  I am
looking for Wm. H. Greene and his wife Georgia Ann B. Ioor Greene and their
two daughters Eloise Tucker Greene and Anna Louisa Greene.  It is possible
that he may have been dead by then in which case the wife and daughters
would have most likely gone back upstate.  Is the entire 1850 Census for SC
on line somewhere?  Or could anyone that has a private copy of that census
look and see if they can be found.  I have Colleton and Beaufort and have
read every page and they are not there.  What would be the corresponding
county in GA. if they were across the state line and would that be on line.
>Thanks for any suggestions.  This man has been a total brick wall and other
than the marriage notice there is no finding Wm. H. Greene who married in
1841 in upstate SC.
