Episode 186: George Anson and Charles Codner: Gambling for Real Estate in 1735?

from Charleston Time Machine · host Nic Butler, Ph.D.

Local legend says that George Anson acquired Ansonborough in a card game with Thomas Gadsden. While the documents related to that 1727 conveyance contain no hint of a gambling debt, the circumstances surrounding two transactions with Charles Codner of Daniel Island in 1735 suggest that the legend of Captain Anson’s gambling success might have been applied to the wrong property.
