Why this spot
1801-1893 trading and textile town
A town laid out in 1801 at the fork of the Seneca and Tugaloo rivers that grew into a trading and textile center with mills and a clock company. Floods in 1840 and 1852 destroyed the mills, the railroad bypassed it, and the post office closed in 1893.View source →
