Editing Cross Hill, South Carolina (section)

==History==
Cross Hill developed around the intersection of two old Indian trails.  The Carter family constructed an inn at the intersection of these two trails in 1795.  By 1837, the community that developed around the inn was known as "Cross Hill."  The town expanded with the arrival of the [[Georgia, Carolina and Northern Railway]] in 1890, and officially incorporated that same year.<ref>Jennifer Revels, "[http://nationalregister.sc.gov/SurveyReports/EasternLaurensCounty2003SM-2.pdf Historical and Architectural Survey of Eastern Laurens County, South Carolina]," 2003, pp. 20, 43.</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.laurenscounty.org/cc/communities.html | title=Communities | publisher=Laurens County Chamber of Commerce | accessdate=June 14, 2014 | url-status=dead | archiveurl=https://archive.today/20130113000546/http://www.laurenscounty.org/cc/communities.html | archivedate=January 13, 2013 }}</ref>
