Welcome to YCHistory.org

The York County Library of York County, South Carolina, has many valuable resources for local historians and genealogists including newspaper articles, typed manuscripts, photographs, and electronic databases. To make them easily accessible to the researcher and to preserve them for future generations, we have digitized many of these items and provided access to them through this website.
