Scant information is available on most of the Lutheran Ministers of Colonial South Carolina. Among them was Joachim Bulow, who served in the SC backcountry for about 20 years. At the end of the War of American Revolution he moved to Charleston and founded a successful mercantile business, later carried on by his sons.
Joachim Bulow is believed to have been the son of Jochim Hinrich Bülow and Anna Elisabeth Barten of Rethwisch, a town close to the Baltic Sea in Mecklenburg-Schwerin (now in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania), Germany. Jochim was the third child of this couple. His older brother and sister, according to the Church record, were married in Rethwisch whereas no further record of Jochim or his two younger sisters or surviving younger brother is found in Rethwisch. Jochim Bülow evidently left the town at a relatively young age.

VI. Margaretha Bülow, baptized 1 December 1743. No further record found in Rethwisch.
VII. Hinrich Bülow, baptized 25 May 1748, died 24 June 1748.
The earliest surviving record of Joachim Bulow in SC dates to 1773 in which year he had a 200 acre tract on Crims Creek surveyed in his name (Colonial Plats 13:424). The land was granted the following year and two weeks later he sold 50 acres of the grant for use as St. Paul's Lutheran Church land (Newberry Deeds B-107). By tradition Bulow is considered St. Paul’s first Pastor. In 1775 he was “Missionary and Inspector over South and North Carolina" at which time he ordained John Gottfriend Arends of NC (G. H. Cox, History of Organ (Lutheran) Church, Rowan Co, NC, 1894).
Bulow's ministry in the Dutch Fork lasted until the winter of 1785/1786 when he moved to Charleston. He died testate in 1795 leaving property to his wife and sons (Charleston Wills, C, p. 218). His will mentions that his wife, Amelia, had a niece, Anna Karr. There are several Newberry deeds (Sheriff to Bulow, Newberry Deeds A-12 and A-13, and Bulow to Pearson and Babb, Newberry Deeds A-61) which indicate that Bulow had a business relationship with a man named Peter Karr. (Newberry Deeds A-13)
Joachim Bulow as the “next of kin” was administrator of the estate of Thomas Appleton. Appleton owned land in Ninety Six District and had personal property in Beech Island, SC, near Augusta, GA, then in Orangeburgh District. Witnesses in the Appleton estate record were William Shinholser and David Zubly (Pauline Young, "Abstracts of Old Ninety-Six District and Abbeville County" and Abbeville County Wills AB, page 14 and page 68, Surrogate Court - Box 2, Pack. 31). These records state that in 1782 Appleton and Bulow were residents of Beech Island. It is speculated that they had moved to Beech Island to get away from fighting that was occurring in the upcountry at that time.
During the American Revolution Joachim Bulow sided with the American or “Rebel” cause. None of his real estate was confiscated and there are records that he sold supplies to SC troops. He billed the State of South Carolina in December 1783 for goods sold from 1779 to 1783; among them was corn and wheat milled at Bulow’s mill on Bush River and Mr. Sommer’s mill on Crim’s Creek (Stub Indent 1335).
The genealogical papers of John Bulow Campbell, a Great Great Grandson of Joachim Bulow, are preserved in the Manuscript Department, Southern Historical Collection of the University of North Carolina library at Chapel Hill, NC. The Atlanta History Center has a similar collection of records donated by Virginia Campbell Courts, daughter of John Bulow Campbell (“Campbell-Bulow-Orme Families Papers”). They contain much genealogical information regarding Bulow’s family as well as old letters and pictures, obituaries, and other items of historical interest.

The last will and testament of Charles Wilhelm Bulow was dated March 1821, and proven on 1 May 1823 in Charleston (Charleston Wills F-505).
Charles Wilhelm Bulow made a fortune in cotton during the Embargo. He owned a large home on Meeting Street in Charleston. He also had a town house on Charlotte Street in St. Augustine, Florida. In 1819 Florida was purchased by the United States from Spain and in 1821 Bulow bought a large tract in Mosquito (now Flagler) County. On this land he developed a sugar plantation which, after his death, continued to be developed by his son, John Joachim Bulow. At the time of its destruction the plantation operated with 300 slaves and with 800 acres under cultivation in sugar cane and cotton. The "Great House" and much of the plantation were destroyed in 1836 by the Indians early in the Second Seminole War (“A Sugar Empire Dissolves” in M. Boyd, “The Seminole War: It’s Background and Onset, “ FL Historical Quarterly 30:1, July 1951). The son, John Joachim Bulow, died on Saturday night, 7 May 1836, in St. Augustine (Charleston Observer, issue of 21 May 1836).
The plantations in the Territory of Florida provided sugar for the states until their destruction in 1836. The site of the sugar mill, the "Great House," and the landing containing about 109 acres, near Bunnell, Florida, is now owned by the Florida Board of Parks and Historical Memorials and the plantation ruins are open to the public as a state park.
