Sumter, S. C. is named for General Thomas Sumter,
famous "Gamecock" of the American Revolution, who
in 1783 founded old Stateburg in “the High Hills of the
Santee", just 10 miles from Sumter and almost in the
exact geographical center of the State. Located on U. S.
Highway 15, main and most direct tourist route between
Florida and the Northeast, Sumter lies half-way be-
tween New York and Miami and is a favorite stopping
place for tourists.
