Privately-Owned Trees


These are Live Oak trees that reside on personal property on Daniel Island, and not in public areas. These owners have registered their trees with the Daniel Island Historical Society, which has in turn registered the trees with the national Live Oak Society. If you have a Live Oak on your property that you would like to have documented by DIHS, please send us an email at dihistoricalsociety@gmail.com. THANK YOU!
