Jacob
Bond I'On (1782-1859), served as the mayor of Sullivan's Island, president
of the South Carolina Senate and was a War of 1812 hero.
The planter and U.S. Army and militia officer was described at his
death as a "representative of the true Carolina gentleman."
He is buried in the family cemetery within I'On, 1⁄2 mile north
of I'On Square.
The I'On Company is proud to recognize the civility and virtue of
Jacob Bond I'On by naming our neighborhood in his honor.
