The small community of Cokesbury in Greenwood County was named for two Methodist bishops – Thomas Coke and Francis Asbury. This building in Cokesbury, constructed in 1854, has been home to a variety of educational programs including the Masonic Female Collegiate Institute and the Cokesbury Conference School for boys. It was a co-educational public school from 1918 through 1954 when the Methodist conference took ownership of it. Cokesbury College was included in the National Historic Register in 1970.

When I was in Greenwood recently, a friend took me out to Cokesbury where I was able to see “from a distance”, because the gate was closed. Where could I see records of students who attended there? I have been told that 2 of my long-deceased family members would be included.
