Lyman Military Memorial

SC PICTURE PROJECT Leave a Comment

SC Picture Project / Spartanburg County / Lyman Military Memorial

The Lyman District Five War Memorial is located in the small upstate town of Lyman. Originally named Groce’s Stop, this small farming community quickly grew into a bustling mill village with the addition of Pacific Mills largest textile mill in 1924. The company built homes for the workers and helped to create a community by building a school, community center, churches, and even a National Guard armory.
