Alcolu

Alcolu combines a quiet rural setting with the legacy of a former lumber company town in a way that reflects its position in South Carolina’s inland coastal plain. The community lies northeast of Lake Marion, within the broader Santee-Cooper country of forests, farmland and waterworks. Its history also carries a difficult national reference: George Stinney Jr., a Black teenager convicted and executed in 1944, was from Alcolu; a South Carolina judge vacated the conviction in 2014.
