Established in 1836, Marion County was named in honor of Revolutionary War hero and South Carolina native Francis Marion. Marion, who earned the nickname the “Swamp Fox” for his elusive tactics, is considered to be one of the fathers of modern guerrilla warfare. Before war’s end, Marion had risen to the rank of brigadier general of the South Carolina Militia. He died in 1795.
