Hilton Head PSD’s Johnny Malphrus built a demonstration well at The Gullah Museum of Hilton Head Island, located at 12 Georgianna Dr., as part of PSD outreach related to the history of water on the island. The demonstration well has a vintage cast iron hand water pump, which is used to demonstrate the traditional way of getting water on the island.
“The Gullah Museum preserves the Gullah culture and educates people about a point in history they may not have known,” said Louise Cohen, founder of The Gullah Museum.
