Labruce/Lemon House
Inscription
This house, built on 10 acres of beach land by 1858, was owned by the LaBruce family, who were successful rice planters in this area of All Saints Parish. According to local tradition, two small dwellings on the property were slave cabins. The residence was purchased by Calhoun Lemon of Barnwell, South Carolina, in 1952 and still remains in this family.
Additions have been made to the house through the years. Erected by Pawleys Island Civic Association, 1993
