Dying to Vote: The Negroes' Struggle to Secure the Right to Vote in Upcountry South Carolina 1868-1898 tells the tragic story of clashes between South Carolina Negroes eager to embrace the highest standard of citizenship with the state's white supremacists. These white Democrats were committed to maintaining their own status as the sole and legitimate possessors of the right to vote and govern. During Reconstruction Negroes contended with enfranchisement laws enacted at local, state, and federal levels which often countered each other on both sides of this tug of war. Intimidation, denial of employment and shelter, threats, lynching and riots became successful strategies in restoring total control of the ballot box and redeeming the state of South Carolina from the so called "Negro rule." The tragedies documented in this thesis are centered in the Upcountry counties because it was there that Negroes outnumbered whites and presented the largest threat to positions of dominance and political power. Edgefield, the home of the wealthiest and most influential leaders, led the state in suppressing Negro votes. Locations of documents that support this thesis include: Lander College in Greenwood, South Carolina Department of Archives and History, South Caroliniana Library at the University of South Carolina, National Archives Building in Washington D.C., Morgan State University, Towson State University, and the University of Maryland.

520 $a Literature which describes Reconstruction in South Carolina is plentiful. Historical materials on roles, readjustments, and reactions to freedom by both whites and blacks are available from both perspectives. Efforts were made to provide a balanced view of the state and the responses of its citizens during those tumultuous years. In addition to the research of historians, primary sources from the U.S. Congress, The Bureau of Refugees Freedmen and Abandoned Lands, and correspondence from South Carolina Governors and significant stake holders were used to bring specificity to this study of the riot torn areas.
