History
of Lake Murray
Lake
Murray, named in honor of chief engineer William S. Murray, was completed
in 1930 and is owned by SCE&G. It covers approximately 78 square miles
of land and provides electricity for South Carolina's entire Midlands
region. Originally inhabited by the Catawba and Cherokee Indians, the area
that is now Lake Murray was eventually settled by European immigrants,
primarily of Dutch and German origin. In order to build Lake Murray, the
Lexington Water Power Company (SCE&G's predecessor) relocated 5000
citizens and removed three churches, six schools, and 2000 graves. The
Saluda Dam, which was once the largest earthen dam in the world, is
1 miles wide and 208 feet high.
