Original balcony baluster of the McCord House in Columbia, SC. Built in 1849 for David and Luisa McCord by the enslaved people that she owned who are Gbadebo’s ancestors from Lang Syne Plantation. Among the enslaved carpenters who built the home were John Spann and Anderson Keitt. The house is currently owned by Henry McMaster, the incumbent Governor of South Carolina, who purchased the property in May 2016. The house serves as student housing for University of South Carolina students.
