St. Helena Island, South Carolina
Near the end of the Civil War in November 1862, some 12,000 Union troops landed on Hilton Head Island, across the Port Royal sound from Lands End on St. Helena.
Therefore, it would be accurate to describe St. Helena as the birthplace of slavery in the United States, and where it was abolished 336 years later in 1862.
Technical slavery ended on St. Helena Island, and in the United States of America, when the Union troops were poised on Port Royal Island in 1862.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Helena
It is also clear from the declaration of the contemporary historian of the Church that Helena, from the time of her conversion had an earnestly Christian life and by her influence and liberality favoured the wider spread of Christianity.
Helena was still living in the year 326, when Constantine ordered the execution of his son Crispus.
This is directly attested by Eusebius (Vita Constantini, III, xlvii): "She (his mother) became under his (Constantine's) influence such a devout servant of God, that one might believe her to have been from her very childhood a disciple of the Redeemer of mankind".

 St Helena History, 1502 - 1821
The Governor had to make his decisions based on his experience and what he thought the Directors would approve.
Helena still has a Sheriff; it is, if not administratively, still a county; but it has been forgotten.
This expeditionary force had set sail before news of the capture of St. Helena had reached England, but Munden determined to recapture the Island immediately, without waiting for specific orders.

 St. Helena
Helena became zealous for the faith, using her influence and wealth to extend Christianity.
On the death of his father, the young Constantine brought his mother to live at court at Byzantium, the capital of the Eastern Empire.
According to St. Ambrose, Helena was an inn-keeper when Constantius lifted her from her lowly position and made her his consort.

 St Helena - New Zealand Flax
On St Helena the plant was used to make sisal, but this use declined with the introduction of man-made fibre ropes later in the 20th century.
Even the spent flower stalks were used to make rafts to cross rivers and lakes.
The use of the New Zealand Flax leaves in the making of baskets gives the scientific name Phormium, which translates from Greek as basket.
