Greenville, SC Police Department in the 1800's


This circa 1873 photo matches others we have seen of that time period, and appears to have been taken on McBee Ave. The uniforms have the long coats, and the rounded type hats. You can see that several of the Officers are holding "nightsticks". The officer on the far left is believed to be the commanding officer. If you have any information or details on this photo, please contact us. Anything would be helpful to establish the historical data for all of our research. cd
