The SARRATT Family (1897 papers)
[REF:#155, Pg14]
OBEDIAH SARRATT, first son of ANTHONY SARRATT, married SARAH BONNER,
daughter of BRYANT BONNER and ANNIE HARRIS, who lived near Grassy
Pond, Spartanburg County, South Carolina.
OBEDIAH and wife settled first upon Sarratt's Creek near Grassy Pond. SARAH, his wife,
died there Sept. 24, 1813, aged 48 years, 1 month and 11 days, and
was buried there.
After the death of his wife, Sarah "Sally" (BONNER) in 1843
OBEDIAH SARRATT purchased lands in York Co., SC., established a
ferry on "Broad River" and followed farming and other industries.
He accumulated a considerable amount of lands, negroes and other
personal property. He was a very perserving man, with large ideas.
But for the disaster of the Confederacy, a whole county would scarcely
have satisfied him in lands. He was an able advocate of the Confederate
cause, and much of his means went in that direction. He was very
liberal to the poor.
There were born to OBEDIAH and SARAH SARRATT, ten children. These
were:
1. ADALINE,
2. EMELINE,
3. MINERVA,
4. MISSALANY, [Female]
5. LAWSON,
6. JOHN,
7. FIDELO,
8. ALIN,
9. CANNILLUS, and
10. COLUMBUS.

This regiment reported 3 killed and 23 wounded at First Manassas and totalled 650 men in April, 1862.
It sustained 21 casualties at Williamsburg,
81 at Gaines' Mill,

In 1864 it lost 18 killed, 95 wounded, and 16 missing during The Wilderness Campaign, and from
June 13 to December 31, there were 11 killed and 65 wounded.
On April 9, 1865, the unit surrendered 19 officers and 263 men.
The field officers were Colonels A. Coward, John R.R. Giles, and Micah Jenkins;
Lieutenant Colonels Andrew Jackson, G.W.H. Legg, and John D. Wylie; and
Majors Thomas C. Beckham, William M. Foster, and William T. Thomson.

the 375 engaged at Frayser's Farm. The regiment reported 2 casualties at South Mountain, 65 at Sharpsburg,

who never shirked his duty. On the night that I lay wounded
on the battlefield, I heard him come up and ask if he reckoned
Dick and Cout (Coutis SURRATT) were dead. I did not delay letting
him know that we were not. He visited us several times
while we were in the hospital. Later, on account of his age,
he came home where he remained to run his father's mill.
He was always close to me until his death. Now the
memory of his goodness lingers with me. [by Richard M. JOLLY, 1924]

"Into the Dark Valley of Dispair":
The Battle against the Red Light Districts, Pg98
|
In Feb 1918 a report on the work of the CTCA's Committee
on Protective Work for Girls documented the case history
of 15 women and girls from South Carolina who had recently
been committed first to the "National Training School"
in the District of Columbia and then to the Sherborn
Reformatory for women in Massachusetts. Ranging in
age from 15 to 21 years, these women were interned as
part of CTCA's crusade against vice. A number of characteristics
appeared repeatedly in their case histories, including low
education or mental age, an early entry into the world of work.
disrupted or "degenerate" family histories, a long history of
"immoral relations with men" often as prostitutes, and repeated
arrest for that immorality. [96]
The case of Lois SARRATT was typical. Lois
was 15 years old. She could neither read or write and had worked as a spooler
in the cotton mills since she was 10 years old. She had "been immoral"
since the age of 11 and had become a prostitute when she was 13 years old.
Her mother was a known prostitute and had given birth to Lois illegitimately
In August 1917, while living in the red-light district of Greenville, SC.
Lois was arrested for selling liquor to soldiers. Escaping jail, where she
was to serve a 3-month sentence, she was again arrested and placed in
the rescue, from which she also escaped. When finally picked up and
commuted, Lois suffered from venereal infection. [97]
Lois SARRATT exhibited all the characteristics of what the CTCA referred
to as a hardened prostitute -- a long career in prostitution, a history of
repeated arrest, and the resultant venereal disease assumed to infect all
prostitutes. Lois, according to the CTCA, was a danger to her community.
to the soldiers of Camp Sevier in that community, and finally, to herself.
On this basis the CTCA approved of her long-term commitment to a reformatory.
here Lois would receive treatment for both her physical and morals maladies
before being permitted to return to her home in South Carolina.
The CTCA committed Lois to the Sherborn Reformatory for Women.
