Notes par Francis Kinloch

Rice Hope was first the home of Francis Kinloch, born in 1720, a highly successful rice planter and member of the Commons House of Assembly. In the early nineteenth century ownership passes to Jonathan Lucas, who invented and erected the first rice mills in South Carolina, as well as England. For the latter, the British Government offered him knighthood, which he declined.

Lucas and his father, who invented both the tide-and steam-mill processes for milling rice, are credited with outstanding efforts boosting the rice industry to its peak in the years preceding the War Between the States. In 1896 the property was sold to Frederick Wentworth Ford, a son-in-law of the Lucas family, who continued to grow rice until 1908. Also notable: the Marquis de Lafayette stopped at Rice Hope during the Revolution as he journeyed from North Island to Charleston.

Though old, the structure seen today is not original. The first house, most likely situated slightly southeast of the present one, burned in the early nineteenth century. Rice Hope is a lovely plantation, noted for its gardens even prior to 1860. Roses covered the grounds, gardenias and weeping willows bordered the lake, and trees shaded the entrance drive. The plantation is owned by the Rice Hope Partners. House open.
