Thanks for sharing. I am a Decendant of the Native Indian people that lived and thrived on the Peedee River. My grandmother used to take us fishing there on the banks of the Peedee. My ancestors and DNA go back some 30, 000 years. Very proud of the land of my ancestors.
Glad you enjoyed it. Oh yea I sat there just thinking about how it must have been back then on that very spot. I found out today that they have a civil war reenactment at the site once a year. I’m gonna try to attend the next one and record some of that LORD WILLING! Wow! We’re not too far apart then. Thanks for watching my friend. 😇🙏🏻😇🙏🏻❤️👍🏻
Amen! Yes I love history to. Yea it’s a very well known river in our neck of the woods. Yes we are blessed to live in this part of the country. GOD BLESS YALL ❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻👍🏻😇

Thank you Ms. Debbie! So glad you enjoyed this. I love history to. We live about 30 minutes from the river. Glad you didn’t have to replace your I Pad We appreciate all of your prayers and support! Praying for you as well. We Love you 😇🙏🏻😇🙏🏻👍🏻❤️
Beautiful area for people to relax its so green. Its history was interesting too they didnt have much luck with the bridges tho. Thx for the sight seeing tour of your area and beautiful country
Thank you Preacher. I knew a little history but we do have a lot of historical places here in our state. Many traveled those river banks amazing. Have a blessed weekend. Beautiful park.
Great Video. My great grandfather traveled with his dad from Cheraw to Charleston and back twice a year on one of the flatboats . In the summer during droughts me and my cousins would wade the river looking for arrow heads and we found a bunch. We also found a vein of black flint that crosses the river bottom from NE to SW. My Dad said he would go with his uncle to pan gold at that same spot. It's just south of Town , we rode bikes past a cotton mill on the left hand side and through some pecan trees to the river.We never found any gold but I got a stone axe. That was 55 years ago, probably gone by now. Haven't been back in years.
Thank you. I really appreciate you watching. I also appreciate you leaving a comment especially sharing all this different history that you and your family have experienced at or near this location on the Great Pee Dee River. That was awesome, I love hearing about history in our country from days gone by. God bless you & thanks again. 🙏🏻😇👍🏻❤️
No wonder those Indians were so spiritual searching for God.They found him in that beautiful nature. The history take you back there,the surroundings look like heaven Wonderful place to pray and restore like the American Indians did. God Bless America! Thanks Pastor,watching with my kids.
Amen sister Maria, I agree with you on that. The beauty of nature GODS CREATION is the best place to feel HIS presence and listen to HIS still small voice sometimes. Glad y’all are watching & listening to this as a family, this does my heart so much good. GOD BLESS YOU ALL AS WELL. 👍🏻🙏🏻😇❤️❤️😇🙌🏻😇🙏🏻
This is awesome! I always wondered about the river when I cross and the Little Pee Dee River going to my Aunts. Thank you! This was so interesting! It is amazing to me how the woods took over where a road had been. That must have been a huge covered bridge. Thank you for sharing this!
The 23 mile section from Blewett Falls to Cheraw is the most beautiful part of the entire river. I live down here on the coast, the river is totally different when you get above the fall line, that's why I love it up there.
That's some cool history. Seems like our travels encountered this river at one time or another. Interesting to read about needing a pass and keeping to the right of center on the bridge etc. Neat share. I like bridges. God bless y'all!
I enjoyed this video as I love history and old parks. The description was interesting with how the river was used by the Indians and steamboats. And how many times that bridge was rebuilt. Thank you very much and God bless you!
I haven't read the story yet but, I want to. I'd like to know if the river or the stream ever gets dredged. By the looks of the stream, it never was dredged. At least, not since the bridge was built. Dredging helps keep the water flowing to avoid flooding. Thank you again for sharing this! I hope you, Robbie Lynn, and family have a blessed weekend!☮️💖🙏🇺🇸🇮🇱🙌
Thank you my friend. It’s definitely not a dream but a river, very wide & deep. Probably never been dredged and with it being one of the longest rivers that flows into the Atlantic Ocean it probably be overwhelming to try to dredge. Hope you all have a great weekend. 😇🙏🏻👍🏻❤️🙌🏻
I lived a few miles from the river back in the 70's in Mechanicsville My Dad lived a few miles farther away at Mont Claire We fished that river a bunch , hook and line , trot line , gill nets ... It fed us well
Yes sir, we’ve fished it all of my life growing up as well. I was born & raised in dovesville & Mont Clare. Are you related to Harvey Byrd that just passed this year? He was my uncle by marriage.
@@homesteadingpastor Yep , He is my Uncle Hob ... He and my Dad , Buddy Byrd , was brothers Annette and Mary my favorite cousins , thier Mom , my favorite Aunt
Left out one of rhe most interesting historical topics regarding the river ..pirates!! Here is a clip from actual news journal before the same stories vegan to be veiled on the side of a more occukted history... " Not long after the ship sailed past the settlement of Cheraw, it ran into rocks at Buchannan Shoals (Old Sneadsboro) and the Royal Fortune started sinking. Black Bart ordered his small crew to load the gold on a longboat and they started rowing upriver. They made it as far as what we now call Blewett Falls and again their boat ran into rocks and began to sink..." you see the river has a more sinister side that has been burried over tume (no pun) ..it used to be ruthless to travel this old river back in the earliest days due to piracy and criminals that like to use it and guard as a safe haven to hide loot and treasure. "In Search Of History" (a History Channel doc back when The History Channel actually did history) has good documentary regarding such use of these great rivers before the dawn of the steamboat.
Huh. I've crossed there seen the sign. But like the rest of us just laughed with my kids jokes at the name n didn't think about it or where the name came from etc. Interesting.thx
My great great great mother grew up along the Pee Dee River back in the 1850’s. Sadly I can’t get any information nor a response from the Pee Dee tribe whom I was told could help me.
