Notes |
- Charles Pinckney was a British colonial lawyer and administrator, and
father of Charles Cotesworth and Thomas Pinckney. He was a successful
lawyer and widower when he married Elizabeth Lucas, mother of his two
sons and heiress to plantation lands in South Carolina. With his wife, he
worked to encourage Indigo cultivation in the colony. He was for a short
time chief justice of South Carolina. In 1753, he was appointed agent for
the colony in London. He died five years later, leaving his wife to raise
his sons and manage the plantations.
