NOTE: This tree is a "work in progress". Many of the notes are incomplete and some links will not work correctly, especially when inside a Scrapbook. I still have much data to add and apologise to those contributors whose information has not yet been added. My sincere thanks to all.

I have tried to verify as much information as possible but errors may exist or conflict with other sources. Individuals with uncertain details have a (See Notes) label attached to their name.

Any photos will be found in the individual's Scrapbook. Click the "ScrapBook" link in the left menu for a list. These allow only a limited amount of text so I will be adding feature pages containing more detailed notes, photos and links. These will appear at the right of the Scrapbook links.

Juliana Matilda Fripp

From SHFoSC:
Juliana was a recognised belle of South Carolina and married Samuel Prioleau, of Charleston, on 11 March 1846.
During the war Mrs. Prioleau, who was by then a widow, was forced to refugee first to Columbia, SC, and then to Athens, GA. A recent (to 1905) work entitled "South Carolina Women in the Confederacy," on page 177 says: "About this time the Hon. C.G. Memminger wrote to Mrs. Jos. D. Pope, of Beaufort, describing the sufferings and dire need of our sick and wounded soldiers after the Battle of Bull Run, and asked her aid on their behalf. No time was lost in bringing this communication to the notice of the ladies and a hospital committee was established, consisting of Mrs. Pope, Chairman; Mrs. Stephen Elliott; Mrs. Louis DeSaussure; Mrs. Prioleau and Mrs. James Verdier, her able and indefatigable associates. In a short while lint, bandages, sheets, pillows, towels and blankets were packed and hauled thirty miles distant to reach the Charleston and Savannah Railroad, and sent with all speed to the hospitals in Virginia.
Delicacies also, which could bear transportation, were not forgotten. But work now nearer home demanded their attention. Under their supervision two rooms on Murray's Wharf were secured and fitted up as a hospital for use of the soldiers from the up country then stationed at Bay Point and Hilton head.
The care of the sick at home did not prevent, however, them continuing their monthly consignments of necessaries to Richmond, which only ceased when they themselves, in common with the whole community, were homeless and almost destitute refugees, bravely bearing untold privations for the cause they loved so well."



Notes from Bettye Darby:
Juliana paid $6.67 to redeem Fripp Island for nonpayment of the Direct Taxes after the close of the Civil War. She later deeded the Island to a daughter-in-law in 1901 for $5.00. This daughter-in-law then sold it for two thousand dollars in 1903.

Some Historic Families of South Carolina, p.37.

The family of Priuli orrr priolo, from which the Prioleaus of France were descended was one of the ancient ducal houses of Venice. Prior to 1000 it flourished in the Kingdom of Hungary, but in 1097 some of its members settled in Venice, where they took rank with the most distinguished and powerful nobility.
