Established in 1850.

Since the agency first offered fire insurance for South Carolina National Bank mortgages in the mid 19^th Century, we have grown to a full-​service agency with seven locations throughout the Lowcountry and one in the mid-​state area.

Silcox, Jr., Willard A. Silcox, III, and Christopher G. Silcox. In 2012, Edward F. Lowndes III and Rawlins C. Lowndes will become owners. Thus, the agency is assured of being owned and operated by a 6^th generation of the Lowndes family plus a second generation of the Silcox family
