Introduction

Heyden Hill Plantation, located in Charleston County, South Carolina, was owned by Theodore Gaillard Sr. which he willed to his son Peter Gaillard,[1] and then owned by Peter's son Peter Gaillard.[2] A drawing of Heyden Hill Plantation can be found online.[3]

Peter Gaillard Sr.

Theodore Gaillard's son Peter Gaillard died in 1833. His will was written 13 Dec 1832, proved 5 Feb 1833.[4] His probate inventory has yet to be discovered. Although Peter Gaillard Sr. owned Heyden Hill plantation, he is identified with a plantation called the Rocks Plantation.[5] Son Samuel Gaillard ended up with the Rocks Plantation.
