The Village of Harleston also frequently called Harlestons Green, more rarely Harlestonborough, and more recently Harleston Village, was originally part of a grant made to John Coming and Henry Hughes in 1671. After the death of Coming and his Wife Mrs. Affra Coming, it was inherited by Mrs. Comings Nephew, John Harleston. Streets in the village of Harleston were names for prominent men of the period, in England and the Province. The Royal Governor, LOrd Charles Greville Montagu, along with Lt. Gov. William Bull; Hector Beranger de Beaufain, Collector of Customs and member of Parliament who defended Colonial rights, as well as John Rutledge, Thomas Lynch and Christopher Gadsden who were active in the Provincial Government and later leaders in the American revolution all were commemorated.
