GARY BRIGHTWELL is a native of Pickens, SC, and is the 3rd great granddaughter of Benjamin Hagood (1788-1865) and Adaline Ambler Hagood (1808-1877). Gary inherited her passionate interest and love for family history and Pickens County from her late father, Ben Folger Hagood Jr. A librarian by profession, researching and collecting information comes naturally to her. In 2004 she began a quarterly HAGOOD FAMILY NEWSLETTER sent to over 125 Hagood “cousins.” Gary is anxious to share her information and hopefully receive new information from other researchers. She can be reached at ghbright@gmail.com 318 Lynnwood Rd., Waterboro, SC 29488.
