"The focus of this Wise research is on the Wise family that lived in the vicinity of Lower Lexington County and that part of Lexington and Orangeburg counties that became Calhoun County in 1908. This family lived near and above the Congaree River as opposed to the Wise/Wyse family of the Dutch Fork and the Saluda River. The early name for the settlement along the Congaree River was the Congarees"—Pref., p. ii.

During his presidency, Jimmy Carter received a comprehensive analysis of his family's genealogy, dating back 12 generations, from leaders of the Mormon Church. More recently Carter's son Jeff took over the family history, determined to discover all that he could about his ancestors. This resulting volume traces every ancestral line of both Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter back to the original immigrants to America and chronicles their origins, occupations, and life dates. Among his forebears Carter found cabinet makers, farmers, preachers, illegitimate children, slave owners, indentured servants, a former Hessian soldier who fought against Napoleon, and even a spy for General George Washington at Valley Forge. With never-before-published historic photographs and a foreword by President Jimmy Carter, this is the definitive saga of a remarkable American family.
