Site Visit: This is a beautiful Old Church with a Steeple that reaches into the heavens. I was fortunate on this outing to find two markers! I wasn't fortunate enough to be the one to enter them into the Historical Marker Database. Somebody beat me to it! This location will make a great virtual geocache for those interested in rural South Carolina and recording their finds. These locations are worthy of recognition.
