King's Mountain Chapel Built By Community Pioneers
In the 1860s settlers faced poverty and ignorance on the King’s Mountain road area near Yorkville. Rev. M. A. Connolly organized a church in 1864 with 17 members. Rev. L. A. Johnson later led efforts to build a new chapel, aided by Joseph A. Smith and Isaac Davis. From rough log structure to a completed building in 1876, the church grew as members contributed generosity and labor.
