Notes |
Colonel William Rhett, who oversaw construction of defenses around Charles Town, South Carolina, presented plans and cost estimates to the Commons House of Assembly in 1726 and work was complete on the fort in 1734, at which time the builders, Messrs. Bond and Delabere, were paid. The fort was garrisoned until 1757 when Fort Lyttelton was finished. In 1785, the fort and its environs were sold to Captain James Joyner; when Joyner died in 1796, the property went to his grandson John Joyner Smith (1790-1871). By 1861, the fort lands comprised about 700 acres and the site was colloquially known as Old Fort plantation or Smith Place. The Union forces occupied the fort after the Battle of Port Royal in 1861, and the place was sold for non-payment of taxes in 1863. The United States government purchased the property. In 1949, the site was partially developed to accommodate a naval hospital.
