Anderson County had over 40 historical markers that are part of the South Carolina Roadside Marker Program. Join me tonight at 7:00 pm at the Senior Solutions Center for a presentation on the history of the marker program for the Anderson County Chapter of the South Carolina Genealogy Society. I will be hosting a lively discussion about the program, its history, and what it takes to erect a marker.
