How Horse Creek Valley towns got their names

A South Carolina retrospective traces the origins of several Horse Creek Valley settlements. Langley in Rock-Eye gained its name from a local Black resident. Warrenville honors cotton entrepreneur Charles Warren Davis who built a mill in 1896. Stieffeltown Burnettetown Gloverville and Howlandville name landowning families. Lynwood derives from an early telephone exchange. Rabbit Hill inspired a stubborn town nickname. Bath likely from Bath England or Bath Maine. Clearwater reflects Chickasaw heritage at a creek junction where Big and Little Horse Creek meet.
