Histori
Dari Cherokee Land ke Greenville County
Greenville land is currently the hunt for Cherokee, which is off limits to the colonists. A wealthy settler from Virginia named Richard Pearis arrived in South Carolina around 1754 trading with Cherokee. Pearis had a son with a Cherokee woman and received about 100,000 acres (40,000 ha) from Cherokee around 1770. Pearis established a plantation on the Reedy River called Great Plains in downtown Greenville today. The American Revolution divides the state of South Carolina between Loyalists and Patriots. Pearis supports the Loyalists and along with their allies; Cherokee attack Patriots. The Patriots retaliated by burning Pearis plantations and imprisoning him in Charleston. Pearis never returned to his plantation but Mount Paris was named after him. The Treaty of Dewitt's Corner in 1777 handed almost all Cherokee lands, including now Greenville, to South Carolina.
Greenville County was created in 1786 and named for its physical appearance. However, another source said Greenville was named after General Nathanael Greene to honor his services in the American Revolutionary War. Lemuel J. Alston came to Greenville County in 1788 and bought 400 hectares (160 hectares) and part of Pearis's former estate. In 1797 Alston used his property to establish a village called Pleasantburg where he also built a magnificent mansion. In 1816, Alston's land was purchased by Vardry McBee, who subsequently rented Alston's home for a summer resort, before making his home home from 1835 until his death in 1864. Considered the father of Greenville, McBee donated land to many such structures as churches, academy, and cotton factories. Furman University was funded by McBee who helped bring the university to Pleasantburg from Winnsboro, South Carolina in 1851. In 1853 McBee and other Greenville County leaders funded a new railway called Greenville and Columbia Railroad. Pleasantburg boomed to around 1,000 in the 1850s due to the growth of McBee's donations and the appeal of the city as a summer resort for visitors. In 1831 Pleasantburg was included as Greenville.
Modern Greenville
In December 1860, Greenville supported the convention to debate the issue of secession for South Carolina. The Greenville district sent James Furman, William K. Easley, Perry E. Duncan, William H. Campbell, and James P. Harrison as delegates to the convention. On December 20, 1860 the state convention of South Carolina, together with the Greenville delegation, voted to separate from the Union. Greenville County provides more than 2,000 troops to the State Confederate Army. The city provides food, clothing, and firearms to the Confederate. Greenville saw no action from the war until 1865 when Union forces came through town looking for President Jefferson Davis of the Confederacy who had fled south from Richmond, Virginia. In June 1865, Andrew Johnson appointed the native Greenville, Benjamin Franklin Perry as Governor of South Carolina.
In February 1869, the Greenville city charter was changed by the General Assembly of S. C. who founded Greenville, the city, as a city. Construction exploded in the 1870s such as the construction of a bridge over the River Reedy, a new plant on the river and a new railway. The Greenville News was founded in 1874 as Greenville's first daily newspaper. Southern Bell installed the first telephone line in town. The most important infrastructure that comes to town is the cotton mill. The leading cotton mills operating near Greenville make it a cotton mill town. In 1915, Greenville was known as the "Southern Textile Center."
During World War I, Greenville served as a training camp center for Army recruits. After World War I commercial activity expanded with new cinema and department store. Mansion House was demolished and replaced with the Poinsett Hotel in 1925. The Great Depression injured the Greenville economy forcing factories to lay off workers. Furman University and Greenville Women's College also fought in a crippling economy forcing them to join in 1933. The Textile Workers Strike of 1934 caused a stir in cities and towns surrounding milling that the National Guard had to subdue the chaos. The New Deal established the new Sirrine Stadium and Greenville High School. The Greenville Army Airbase was established in 1942 during World War II that contributed to the growth of Greenville further.
The final stop in South Carolina took place in Greenville on February 16, 1947, when Willie Earle, who was accused of stabbing a taxi driver, was taken from a prison cell by the mob and killed. Thirty-one men are tried and freed from crime.
After World War II, the Greenville economy soared with the establishment of new downtown stores and the expansion of city limits. Furman University doubled the student population and moved to a new location. Higher education facilities such as Bob Jones University in 1947 and Greenville Technical College in 1962 were established in Greenville. Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport was established near Greer in 1962. Greenville's economy finally shrank in the 1970s leaving a void in downtown Greenville due to the flight of many retailers. Mayor Max Heller revitalizes downtown Greenville by establishing the Greenville County Museum of Art and Hughes Main Library. Main Street was then converted into a two-lane street filled with trees and sidewalks.
