Notities over Isaac Hayne

Isaac Hayne (Haynes) (1745-1781): Son of Isaac Hayne (1714-1751), Brother-in-law of Robert Hutson and Thomas Hutson.

Isaac Hayne, son of Isaac Hayne and Sarah Williamson, was born in South Carolina 25 September 1745. Revolutionary War Figure. He was a wealthy young rice planter who fought for independence during the American Revolution. He returned to his home to live in the neutrality after the British captured Charleston (South Carolina) in May of 1750. Later, while in Charleston to secure medicine for his ill wife and children who were suffering from smallpox, he was forced to declare his allegiance to the British. Like many South Carolinians, Hayne returned to the fight when the tide of war turned. He was captured by British troops after leading a raid in July of 1781. To set a brutal example to precent other former Patriots from violating their neutrality, a military tribunal condemned Hayne to death as a traitor. Isaac Hayne was executed in Charleston on August 4, 1781. He was not yet 36 years old. The funeral procession then left Charleston for Jacksonboro, South Carolina (Colleton County) to the home of his plantation - his final resting place. He is buried there along with 11 other family members.

This story takes place during the Revolutionary War when the British took Charles Town in 1780. The British violated the agreement of allowing the garrisoned American soldiers to return to their homes as prisoners on parole. The man to whom the story refers is Revolutionary War hero, Colonel Isaac Hayne. He had retired to his plantation in St. Paul's Parish, where his family had been stricken with smallpox. One child had died, two were very ill and his wife's life hung in the balance. In the midst of all this despair, Colonel Hayne was summoned and forced to go to Charleston to report to the British and to answer the query, "Will you or will you not become the subject of his Majesty? Under the stress he signed because he was told that he never would be asked to draw arms against his country. He was allowed to return home to his dying wife. After her death, the British ordered him to join their army with threats of imprisonment unless he agreed. He was also being asked by Charleston Patriots to become their leader. He agreed. Not long after he was captured in an engagement and was taken prisoner in Charles Town. He was tried for treason, declared guilty and was condemned to be executed. A huge protest occurred for his release, but the British was bound to set Colonel Hayne as an example. The execution day dawned and Colonel Hayne, accompanied by some friends, walked through the streets toward his end. Mrs. Peronneau (his sister or sister_in_law) cried out to him..."Return_return to us!" "I will, he said, if I can." He was hanged to his death a few minutes later.
The story goes...They say his ghost returned for almost a hundred years, until a new war emerged_the Civil War.
