Marker Text:

This community, named by 1791 for the springs at the foot of the Stone Hill, included Eleazer´s Tavern, a post office, schools, grist mills, and Spring Hill Baptist Church before the Civil War. In February 1865, as the war ended in S.C., Federal troops camped nearby looted and burned several homes. Mt. Olivet Lutheran Church was founded in 1873; the town was incorporated in 1889.

Erected by Mt. Olivet Lutheran Church, 1998
