First South Carolina Company

Jamestowne Society

The Jamestowne Society was organized for educational, historical, and patriotic purposes, and to that end:  

  

·  To discover and record the names of all living descendants  of those early settlers who made the great sacrifice  to establish our English-speaking Nation;  and to unite these descendants to honor the memory  of our settler ancestors;  and to record their deeds, and to do homage  to the birthplace of Virginia and the Nation.    

 

· To associate those descendants as members  of the corporation. 

   

·  To bring the members into closer association   through activities revolving around matters   of common historical and genealogical interest.    

 

·  To promote the restoration of historical records,  documents, objects, and edifices which are of  lasting cultural value to the people of Virginia  and of the Nation.  

  

·  To assist in the organization of state companies,  reminiscent of the London and Virginia Companies,  in states where membership and interest justify them.
